  Our guide Pierre went above and beyond to accommodate us and make the entire experience enjoyable. He was knowledgeable of the subject and all the destinations and local villages. The itinerary was well constructed and I would recommend this experience to anyone.

• Lots of champagne in Reims

  It was a fun day with lots of champagne tastings at two very different kinds of champagne houses! Lunch was great and the Cathedral visit was magnificent! Pierre was friendly, fun and knowledgeable.

  Oh wow!! This day trip was the highlight of my 3 week holiday to Europe! For a number of reasons. Firstly, I got to visit my "spiritual home" - Maison Veuve Clicquot. That tour alone was super special - and so fascinating. I thought that I knew the story of Madame Clicquot - but I didn't know the whole entire story - she was some amazing lady! Well actually even before the tour started I took us to the wrong train station - however it all worked out well and we got to see two out of the three train stations in Reims (the two that we did NOT need to go to lol!). Second highlight! But we were saved when our guide Pierre came and picked us up (from the wrong train station). Third highlight - Pierre our tour guide. We ended being the only 3 people (myself, my adult son and adult niece) on the tour - so that was even more perfect! The trip included a visit to Reims' Notre Dame, lunch at a beautiful restaurant and then we finished the day at a family owned Champagne House. We had the best day. The highlight for all of us - was the banter with Pierre! He is the absolute BEST tour guide in Reims! Also his music choice and singing in the van on the way back to the train station was fantastic! Definitely awesome family memories made that day! A special shout out to Ombretta from France Intense (the tour operator) for firstly fitting my son on to the tour at the last minute - and secondly for "saving" us when we went to the wrong train station.

  Wonderful day. Our guide Pierre grew up in the region. He was knowledgeable about the area and history. Tour of veuve clicquot was amazing. Tour of Notre dame Reims and lung in Épernay were great! Train from Paris is easy.

  We had booked a guided tour of a couple of champagne houses in the Reims area and were informed that we would meet at the train station and join a car with six other people and an English-speaking guide. When we arrived, we found out that we were the only ones on the tour, which we thought was absolutely perfect. We started by meeting our guide, Radames Pera, an exceptionally friendly American who has been living in France for over eight years. He shared stories about the origins of Champagne and clearly knew what he was talking about. After a wonderful tour at Veuve Clicquot, we drove to a small village called Hautvillers, where we had a thorough and lovely tour among the village’s many producers. We then went to a small local restaurant called Restaurant Le Bateau Lavoir, where we had lunch and got to taste the owner's own Champagne, which was very good. Afterwards, we drove to Épernay, where we enjoyed another great tour among even more producers, before heading to the producer Michel Fagot. Here, our own tour guide gave us a guided tour once again, clearly showing his knowledge and passion. When the tour ended, we tasted several different varieties of Champagne they produce — all of which were excellent. After we finished, he drove us right to the door of our hotel, saving us from having to carry all the bottles we had bought during the day. We had an absolutely amazing day and learned so much about the region and the history of Champagne. I would definitely recommend using this tour company, and of course, I highly recommend Radames Pera, who undoubtedly made the entire experience even better for us. Thank you so much — we’ll be back! 😊

  After taking another Viator tour that we didn’t like, we were hesitant to start this one. But we were more than pleasantly surprised with how much we enjoyed this tour. We took the train from Paris to Reims to begin the tour and were picked up at the station by Pierre. We were joined by another family for our group of seven in a minivan. Eight would’ve been very tight, but seven worked great. Pierre is a native of Reims and gave us lots of history and local color all presented with a decidedly French sense of humor. We had a great tour of Veuve Cliquot, followed by lunch at a out-of-the-way French bistro, and a lovely visit to a small, family-owned champagne house. We met the family and had a great personal tour and tasting. Pierre topped off our visit by ending our day with a stop on a hilltop overlooking the villages of the area. It was beautiful! We returned to the train station and, after finding our train was running late, spent a few hours in the village of Reims, which we absolutely loved. I highly recommend ending your day with this stop. All in all, a 10 out of 10 day.

  Pierre was a great guide and really fun to be with. He taught us a lot throughout the day and seeing Veuve Clicquot was amazing and then we had a nice tour of Reims cathedral and a beautiful drive through the countryside with a delicious lunch. Ended the day with a small champagne house which we all loved too. Definitely recommend!!

• An excellent 8 hour experience in Champagne

  Spectacular experience! Going to one of the largest champagne vineyards, Veuve Cliquot, and then going to one of a local family, Lemaire, opens the perspective in a different way. The girl who attended and reeled us is spectacular. And he took us to a place to have delicious lunch and with very good variety on the menu. We loved this tour too much!

• Great day!

  Thoroughly enjoyed having a private tour for our group of seven. Pierre our guide spoke excellent English and kept everyone entertained. Unfortunately did not get to see the cathedral as the train back to Paris we needed to be on left at 4:15. Other options are available, but you need to put some time into planning the train rides.
