Meet your English-speaking guide at Reims Centre Station at 9:20 AM for a four-hour tour of two small Champagne producers. Learn the full production process, visit cellars and vineyards, meet owners, and taste six cuvées in a minivan group of no more than eight.

“Our guide, Anne, was hugely knowledgeable about the growing and harvesting of the grapes, technical aspects of the champagne making process, and the region and its economy in general. We toured in a nice minivan with 2 other couples and the atmosphere was very relaxed. Staff at the vineyards gave us a warm welcome and shared their stories too.”
