Meet your guide and a small group of up to eight people at Reims central train station and board the air-conditioned minivan. Set out to explore Reims, the Champagne capital of France.

On the way, hear about Reims, the city of Coronations, and start with a visit to the magnificent Notre-Dame de Reims Cathedral. Explore inside the UNESCO-listed wonder on a guided tour and admire the 13th-century cathedral, with its striking Gothic architecture and beautiful stained glass windows.

Then, arrive at the Veuve Cliquot Champagne Estate (visit and tasting fees included). Enjoy a guided tour of the grand estate, finishing with an expert-led tasting of Veuve Cliquot Champagne.

After that, take a scenic drive through the vineyards of Montagne de Reims, passing through the Grand Cru villages of Verzy, Verzenay, and Bouzy, as your guide explains the Champagne making process and the importance of ‘terroir’ in cultivating the grapes

Along the way, stop at a Champagne family estate and discover a different side to the prestigious Champagne industry. Enjoy a cellar tour and a Champagne tasting lunch (included), where you are treated to a delicious lunch of regional specialties, accompanied by a selection of Champagnes, including Brut non-vintage, Blanc de Noirs and Rosé.

After lunch, enjoy a visit to the production site, and discover how Champagne is made. Finish this amazing program with another tasting of two Champagne glasses and a glass of Ratafia (sweet liquor of Champagne brandy with grape juice).

On return to Reims, your tour ends back at the train station.

Loved Every Minute (Seriously)

My fiancée and I were enjoying Paris but concerned we would have to stay in the city as a transportation strike over Macron's proposed pension reform had shut down much of France. Fortunately, our guide notified us that trains were still running to Reims, the capital of Champagne, and provided us with easy to follow instructions for how to get there. Our day exploring its gothic architecture, the towering cathedral, and France's biggest champagne houses were magical! The knowledge and humor from our guide made the trip all the more memorable. The champagne was on point, too! All in all, Reims via Viatour is an excellent way to introduce yourself to the history-rich, idyllic French countryside.

It is an absolut MUST to do! Great Tour

We loved it. We were 8 people in a mini van and our first stop was at Veuve Cliquot. It was really impressive discovering the cave. After this guided tour we tasted one glass of champagne. Very delicious. Then we started a sight seeing tour through Reims and eat lunch about 30 min away at the countryside. There we had another tasting tour at Dom Caudron. Also very delicious. We got almost drunk :-) but it wasn't finished yet. Another tasting tour started right after near by. After 8 glasses of champagner we skipped the sightseeing tour of the cathedral of Reims. Too tired :-) Overall we very impressed and lucky having booked this tour. Highly recommended!!

What a fun day! Christophe was our guide and he was great! He was very personable and knowledgeable about the region. We toured 3 champagne houses from the large and famous Veuve Clicquot to a much smaller and beautiful family run house. We had a delicious lunch at the second house located in a small village in the beautiful French countryside. We learned about the extensive process of champagne making and it gave us all much more appreciation of the bottles of bubbly. Christophe also took us to a beautiful cathedral and told about it's history. We were accompanied by 5 other people and we all had a great day of champagne sampling and getting to know each other. I think we all agreed, it was one of our favorite days during our Paris stay!

You guys have miraculously - in this world of hyperbole and marketing mayhem - completely undersold this tour. It was divine in every way. The meeting was concise and the van was high level. The guide, an engaging and highly knowledgable local gentleman named Julian, was so accommodating to our time and questions and needs, yet kept the day moving at a brisk but enjoyable pace. He had great pride for his region of birth and it shown through. The places we visited were even ore intriguing and beautiful than we had imagined, and we have wild imaginations. The lunch was unbelievable high class and tasty and the personal tour of one of the local champagne houses was so welcoming. We drank and tasted and ate and laughed and just took it all in. I highly, HIGHLY recommend people take this tour and hope you get Julian, but I am sure if he is working it than you guys have quite a team. One of the highlights of our 20th anniversary France trip. Thank you all!

First of all, Kudos to Dorothée, our so friendly guide. She made our day. Always available to provide information as & when needed, very knowledgeable both on the Champagne subject but also all historical facts regarding Reims. The choice of Champagne Houses was very well thought-through. Starting with Veuve-Cliquot, we ended up our day with a highlight, the Didier Chopin Family Business. Everything has been perfect all day long! Therefore don't hesitate, book asap and make anything possible to ask for Dorothée as your Guide - you won't regret it.

We had a wonderful tour of the Champagne region, hosted by Melanie. We visited three champagne houses including a wonderful lunch at one of them as well as Notre Dame in Reims. Melanie was well versed in the area and the subject. A wealth of information and would recommend Melanie highly as a tour guide to anyone else visiting the area. We were all adults on the trip (7 of us) and we all had a wonderful day.

We had such a great time and this tour was fantastic! Our guide Dorothee was knowledgeable, interesting, fun and very professional. I especially enjoyed the variety of a large champagne house, and two small family operations including a wonderful lunch in a small village.

Highly recommend this tour! We got to taste champagne from smaller champagne houses as well as a larger one on top of soaking in the beauty of Reims and surrounds. Our host Dorothee was lovely, so friendly and knowledgeable. It was definitely the highlight of our trip to France
