A great afternoon near Reims - This afternoon excursion took in two champagne houses, with tastings at each, and also a visit to the actual vineyards. There were only 5 of us plus our guide, which made it very intimate and relaxed.

Excellent champagne experience with a tour of family run houses in the countryside - Our guide Suzanne was fantastic! So knowledgeable about the region and the wine making process. She had a great sense of humour and her English was excellent for English speaking tourists. The tour hit all the highlights. Was nice to see the region outside of Reims. Loved visiting the family run champagne houses after touring one of the big houses as it rounded out the overall experience for us. Highly recommend this tour and if you end up with Suzanne as your guide, you’re in for a great day!

Fantastic and delicious afternoon in champagne country - A brilliant afternoon with Jérôme spent driving around the beautiful vineyards of champagne. Full of interesting facts about the champagne making process and how it has shaped the local history, economy and society. What was very nice to experience was being welcomed into two local family winemakers who provided a friendly, delicious and fun tasting experience. Everything about the tour logistics and travel was smooth and comfortable. 100% recommended.

Good guide who was good in English - Very interesting and good champagne. And an intimate experience with only 8 people. 4 1/2 hour fit fine for the trip, and the afternoon was well spent.

A very worthy tour - Our group of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our time with Anne touring the Champagne region and visiting several producers. Anne was informative, friendly and entertaining. The smaller producers provided a much more intimate experience. We recommend taking this ala francais tour.

Great Champaign Tour! - What an incredible experience! We took a day trip from Paris to Reims. We booked this tour for an afternoon journey. We learned so much about the process involved with making champagne. We got to taste some samples from the local champagne families. Very informative. Didn’t know so much went into making a single bottle of champagne. Also got to visit the gravesite of Don Perignon himself! Highly recommend.
