Fantastic! Our tour guide... - Fantastic! Our tour guide was fun and friendly and really knowledgeable. We got to try 6 different champagnes and learn about the process and such. We stayed in paris and trained in and out (which was a bit of a stressor) so would recommend you stay in the region overnight if possible to avoid that stress.

We had a wonderful tour... - We had a wonderful tour with Thomas. He gave us a detailed history of the area and France. He is also very knowledgeable about the world champagnes. We learnt a lot. On the way back it was very kind and generous of him to drop us off at Champagne Ardenne station, even though it was not part of the trip.

An Effervescent Afternoon in Champagne Country 🍾✨ - If you’re dreaming of golden bubbles, rolling vineyards, and a dash of international camaraderie, look no further than the afternoon champagne tour near Reims. This experience was nothing short of exceptional—from the first pop of the cork to the final toast. Our guide and driver, Chloe, was the true star of the show. With her razor-sharp wit, infectious energy, and encyclopedic knowledge of Champagne’s history and production, she turned what could have been a simple tasting into a lively, immersive journey. She kept our spirited group in line (well, mostly!) with charm and humour, making sure everyone—from the UK to Australia, Argentina to the USA—felt welcomed and engaged. We visited the church where the creator of champagnes lies in rest, Dom Perignon, then on to two distinct Champagne houses, each offering a unique glimpse into the artistry behind the bubbles. From the cool cellars to the sun-drenched tasting rooms, every moment was steeped in elegance and authenticity. The pours were generous, the stories rich, and the ambiance unforgettable. The vehicle was a pleasant surprise—spacious, air-conditioned, and perfectly suited for our group of eight. It made the journey between vineyards smooth and comfortable, allowing us to relax and soak in the scenic beauty of the region. This tour is a must-do for anyone visiting Reims. And if you’re lucky enough to be hosted by Chloe, you’re in for a treat that’s as sparkling as the Champagne itself. Highly recommended—cheers to an afternoon well spent!

A thoroughly enjoyable tour and champagne tasting experience - We enjoyed a very informative explanation of champagne production enhanced by visuals such as the vines growing on the hillsides and the impressive cellars housing the presses and bottles of champagne. Our guide Martin entertained us with his phenomenal knowledge and a great sense of humour! The champagne tasting was fabulous as was the company of the other participants.
