Chloe was very educated and had great communication skills. She was sweet and patient and helped us understand the champagne making process better than I’ve ever heard before. (I’m from wine country in California so sparkling wine, I know, is very different). She is a treasure. I hope she is very appreciated.

Ran very smoothly, well organised, lots of information & very enjoyable

Due to the heatwave, our trip was switched from e-bikes to a minivan which was a bit disappointing, however the tour was still excellent and informative. Our guide was great - she was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We visited vineyards and 3 different champagne producers with tasting - each place was contrasting and uniquely individual. A fascinating tour. Would definitely recommend.

This was an amazing experience! We had such a great time with Maelle. She was one of the best guides we have had. She was very personable, very knowledgeable about the champagnes and champagne making process, and we learned a lot and had a lot of fun. She takes you to two smaller, independent wineries which is exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend!

This is a must-do if you are in the Champagne region. Le Clos Corbier is a lovely smaller champagne house. I attended with my 82 year-old mother and my three adult daughters. Our tour guide, Kevin, was knowledgeable and funny and he made sure everyone in the group enjoyed the tour while learning a lot about the art of champage-making. I also highly recommend having lunch. It was a wonderful way to wrap up a beautiful morning in a beautiful place with lovely people.

What an excellent afternoon with Thomas our guide…so informative, so friendly and certainly knows his champagne…. We was taken into the countryside with absolutely stunning scenery and views… Tasted various different champagnes and given the low down on how it’s made from the grape to the bottle…. We learnt so much as to the amount of work that goes into producing so many different varieties of champagne… Well worth the money for the trip and defo recommend to anyone thinking of doing this trip

Excellent quality wines tasted. Our guide Valéria was 10/10: very knowledgeable, accommodating, and pleasant. Highly recommend.

Contrary to what one of the group members thought, it is still a long way by bus before you reach the vineyards, it is not a pub crawl and beforehand it is very important that you have a good lunch. And even with e-bike you need a bit of fitness to do this tour. If all that is not a problem, then you have a very nice afternoon with a good guide / bike repairman who can tell a lot about the region and the wine champagne. At the winery you can also buy champagne and matching glasses. Nice as a souvenir.

Philippe was a fabulous guide on this tour. He was knowledgeable, very friendly and helpful. He showed us a couple of small artisan champagne houses, which was excellent to see and we finished up visiting Dom Perignon’s resting place. The whole half day was beyond expectation and I would thoroughly recommend Philippe to friends and family.

Absolutely brilliant day - can’t speak highly enough of it. Philippe is an expert in his field and he spent the day showing and telling us everything he knew about champagne making. We started at the vines and moved right through the entire process, on the ground and in the cellars of smaller, artisanal houses in the countryside around Epernay. Sure, do a few of the big houses, but if you want passion and craft this tour is for you.

Very good service and nice tasting. The food was delicious and the champagne was flowing.

I recommend! All about champagne!

Definitely worth it! The train from Paris takes only about an hour, making it an easy afternoon/day trip. It's the perfect escape from the crowds and a chance to experience an authentic French town. Richard was an outstanding guide, friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about Champagne. If you're looking for something different from the typical Paris itinerary, this experience is absolutely worth your time. I can say now that I had Champagne in Champagne!

We had such a great afternoon! Can definately recomment to book this tour for your visit to the champagne regio. Nice views, lovely eco car, delicious champagne and a great guide who tells a lot. Not to miss! Enjoy!

Friendly, informative, and knowledgeable tour of a family Champagne house. Would recommend this tour as there was no hard sell but owing to the quality we bought several cases. Superb experience.

Interactive and very well done, we learn a lot about champagne, its design and peripheral professions.
