This 11-hour small-group tour takes you deep into the Champagne region, just outside of Paris. You'll visit two unique wineries and walk the actual vineyards where Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes grow. You'll see how Champagne is grown, harvested, and bottled. Then you taste it — at least 6 different types — with the winemakers themselves. You'll also visit the stunning Reims Cathedral and stop at Dom Perignon's grave. This is not a generic bus tour. It is a real, hands-on experience with the people who make the wine.
With a 4.8 out of 5 rating from nearly 1,000 travelers, this tour consistently delivers. The group stays small, so you get personal attention from the winemakers.
