Even on a cold and rainy day, this was the most brilliant tour. The history of champagne and the process of making it was very interesting and Suzanne, our guide, was so knowledgeable. We learned a lot and had a day that we will never forget.

Suzanne was an amazing tour guide. Incredibly knowledgable about all aspects of champagne from growing to producing. We had a wonderful time learning from her, meeting different family operations, and tasting the different varieties of champagne.

If you want an educational, personal and local experience with a local guide from Reims this is the tour to take. Tomas or guide was personable, experienced, funny, educated and loved to share his love and knowledge of the champagne region with us. He took us to small local houses and shared information about their processes as well as detailed history of the region. You will not be disappointed with this tour!

Wonderful experience and highly recommend. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the idea of small group (max 8) persons making it feel more personal.

If you are looking for a simple tour with a bunch of wine, this is not that tour. We loved this tour because of our guide. Thomas was incredibly knowledgeable about the region and the history that makes up the Champagne region, as well as the industry itself. In addition to visiting 2 small family winemakers, we visited the church where dom perignon is buried, and some other beautiful vistas. This is more than a wine tasting trip, it’s a lesson in how it all came to be and how it continues to evolve. Fascinating, great wines, and a bonus dog who entertained us at one of the wineries (see photos!)
