The tour was really nice with Jerome as guide. Although I think the tour is really expensive for what you get. First house was not clean (toilet), but the second house was better. I think for such tour and amount of money you can arrange food or snacks with it.

Xavier did an excellent job explaining, in order, how champagne is made and the intricate process of it all. He made the experience fun for all of us involved. The small champagne houses made the tour feel much more personal. I did not know anything about champagne prior to this tour and it was perfect.

Florence_L

Had a blast on this Champagne tour! Got to visit two family growers which in my opinion was much more fun and special than than visiting the big name houses. It wasn’t just about the bubbly though, we got to see a village and check out an old church. Our guide, Francesco, was a total star – he was friendly, hilarious and knowledge. The tour was only four hours long but felt we saw so much. Definitely a day well spent!

Jack_C

I wouldn’t say the champagne was anything special, but the experience was great. Extraordinarily beautiful and fun time

Peter_M

Lou was charming and knowledgeable. The locations chosen for tasting were excellent. We enjoyed the church and found the burial spot of Dom Perigno. Interesting

Don H

Our guide was very knowledgeable and provided a great experience! It was a nice way to see smaller, local growers in the region. Very helpful to understand the process of making champagne.

Abigail_R

My friend and I did the half day tour when we took a day trip from Paris to Reims. The train was easy from Gare de l’Est and very quick. Pick up is right in front of the train station. Our group was small, only four total so it was fun to chat. Thomas was our guide and he did a fantastic job explaining the process of champagne making. The wine makers at both houses joined us for the tastings and were enjoyable to chat with. We came home with several bottles each. I would definitely do this tour again!

Susan_B

Nice group of people, and our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the champagne-making process. I enjoyed all the sample glasses of champagne! It was good to see another beautiful area of France.
