Amazing day trip with a fabulous guide! - Absolutely fabulous day trip! Having been to 127 countries on all 7 continents, I have been on countless tours, and this was one of the best! Despite it being a Monday in early May, when many of the Champagne houses are closed or on limited schedules, Valerie was able to get us in at three fabulous houses; Moet, Mumm, and Pomerol. All were excellent and very different making for a great experience.
