A great day trip from Paris! - My husband and I really enjoyed this tour. We took the high speed train from Paris in the morning, and got to Reims a couple of hours before the tour started. We were able to walk around the town and have lunch before meeting up with our group. Our group of 8 included a sommelier from Oregon, and a couple from Portugal who runs their own vineyard, so it made for an interesting afternoon. Our guide Chloe was very knowledgeable, having grown up in the region, and gave us a lot of history. We had an air conditioned Mercedes van that was very comfortable, and our first stop was to Hautvillers, where we visited the church where Dom Perignon is buried. We then stopped at a vineyard to learn how the Champagne grapes are grown and tended to. Finally, we stopped at two local producers and got to try several glasses of champagne. It was a beautiful day, and we learned a lot!

Lovely time - Lovely way to see champagne country and learn some history of the area. The smaller champagne houses and vineyard visits felt more of a personal experience.

Great tour! Suzanne was... - Great tour! Suzanne was very knowledgeable (she has actually harvested grapes to make champagne), informative, entertaining and not pretentious. The last quality being something that is rare in an industry based on pretension. We visited 2 small growers, one of which was more mechanized than the other. We tasted about 6 wines including one that was a vintage. The vintage wine was quite a find. I had the opportunity to visit one of the largest champagne houses in Reims and tasted 2 of their vintage champagnes. I enjoyed the vintage champagne from this tour much more than what I had at Reims. Suzanne also imparted so much more information on the making of champagne than my tour of the Reims champagne house. It was clear, understandable and not a superficial explanation by someone who has not done the heavy work in this industry. Suzanne made this a great tour. Thank you so much for a wonderful and educating time.

Amazing tour! - We absolutely loved this tour! It was one of the highlights of our trip to Reims. Our guide, Chloe was super knowledgeable and friendly, and we appreciated the small tour group size of only 8 guests. We spent a comfortable amount of time at each location to tour and learn about champagne production, and taste a good variety of champagnes. Would absolutely recommend!

A fantastic afternoon in Champagne country - Our guide, Suzanne, was incredibly knowledgeable — from the history of the region to grape harvesting and the full champagne‑making process, she explained everything with clarity and passion. The visits to the family growers were insightful and authentic, and the tastings were a real highlight. The entire experience was enjoyable, well‑organised, and exceeded our expectations. We are so happy we joined this tour and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Reims.
