About this tour
This 10–11 hour private tour whisks you from Paris into the heart of Champagne's rolling vineyards. You'll spend the day visiting both a prestigious cellar and a family-run producer, learning how the region's signature wine is made from grape to glass. The itinerary includes Reims' grand cathedral and charming village streets, with tastings at each stop and transport handled door-to-door from your Paris hotel.
Highlights
- Tour inside a major Champagne house production facility
- Taste at an intimate village winery run by independent producers
- Explore Reims cathedral and town centre on foot
- Drive through terraced vineyard landscapes between stops
- Private vehicle with hotel pick-up and drop-off included
- Learn the méthode champenoise from experienced guides
What to expect
Your driver collects you from your Paris accommodation in the morning and you head northeast toward Reims, arriving mid-morning at a major house where you'll see cellars, learn fermentation techniques, and taste their standard releases. After a village lunch break on your own dime, you'll visit a smaller producer in the vineyards themselves—often a more relaxed, personal experience. The afternoon includes a walking tour of Reims' cathedral and town. Tastings happen at both stops; bring a light appetite if you plan to drink steadily.
Good to know
Bring cash for lunch; restaurants in villages accept cards but it's safer to assume otherwise. Wear comfortable walking shoes for cellar tours and town exploration. You must be 18+ to taste. The tour isn't suitable for pregnant travellers due to cellar conditions.
