Champagne Villages Tour
Description
We'll meet at the designated time in front of Rheims train station. From here, we'll take a minibus to Épernay, one of the most outstanding champagne-producing villages in France.
In this picturesque town, we'll wander along the Avenue de Champagne, where you can find important cellars belonging to famous brands such as Moët & Chandon, Pol Roger, Perrier Jouët, or Boizel. We'll also see the Dom Pérignon statue, the monk who, in the 17th century, discovered a revolutionary method for making champagne.
The tour will continue to the vineyards on the outskirts of Épernay, where we'll reveal facts about the 'champagne terroirs'. Then we'll go to the beautiful village of Hautvillers to visit the church in which Dom Pérignon himself is buried.
The next stop will be in another nearby village, Mareuil-sur-Ay. Here, we'll visit Le Clos Corbier, a traditional house in the region, to taste French champagne. The tasting will be topped with a traditional lunch that will include three different local dishes.
After lunch, we'll visit a family winery and taste different handcrafted champagnes. Finally, we'll return to Reims train station, arriving after a total of 6 hours and 45 minutes.
