WHERE THERE'S FUN, THERE'S ALWAYS CHAMPAGNE!
This tour has all the fun and none of the stress. We take a TGV from Paris Gare de l'Est station to the center of Reims. Not only is Reims home to the most famous French wine, Champagne, it is also known as the fountainhead of the French Nation.
The Smiling Angel aka Le Sourire de Reims
No trip to this city is complete without a tour of 'Our Lady of Reims Cathedral'. She is one of the oldest and finest examples of Gothic architecture in the world. But her true significance lies in the fact that it was here, in 498 that that Clovis the first King of France was baptized. It is this very spot that proclaims to be the birthplace of France. We will take a tour with a professional guide to learn about her significant place in history and the role she still plays in modern day France.
A glass of Champagne in Reims.
We take a tour (in English) and go deep into the cellars with one of the special guides to get a glimpse of how champagne is produced now, as it's always have been through the ages. At the end of our tour, with your glass of champagne in hand, there is a fun interactive sniff test with our guide to see who has the best nose for wine.
