Overview

Perfect Champagne Tour to experience a Ruinart tasting, a Grower Champagne Winery and the city of Reims. If you are staying in Paris, take a quick train for a day trip, and meet me at Reims Centre train station.

We start off from Reims with a visit at Ruinart where you hear the story of the oldest Champagne House inside 2000 years old roman mines, after which you taste their champagne. Then off to visit the world-famous Cathedral of Reims Notre Dame, and a city tour of Reims, home of Mümm, Taittinger and more.

I'll suggest good restaurants to have lunch around Reims, where you can pair Champagne and delicious food. After lunch we'll go to the countryside to see the villages surrounded by vineyards, and visit a small Grower champagne producer, where you're going to learn how champagne is made and taste 3 glasses of champagne.

Certified Guide and Sommelier student with 7 years of experience as tour guide, I'll share with you my passion for History, Culture and Wines. Guaranteed fun!
