What to expect
You'll start with pick-up from your accommodation, then head to a flagship Champagne house where you'll tour chalk cellars and learn production methods before tasting their portfolio. The day continues with visits to smaller, family-run producers where you get closer access and often more personal conversation with staff. Between stops, your driver navigates the roads while you rest or chat. Lunch breaks the day roughly in half, served at one of the cellar locations using a menu you'll choose in advance. Expect roughly 2–3 hours of tasting across the four stops, with travel time between each taking 20–40 minutes depending on locations selected.
