5.00We had an amazing experience with Ann on our tour around Reims/Epernay. She was very knowledgeable, personable, and brought us to two phenomenal champagne houses. She helped us organize lunch, and got us some extra tastings. Highly recommend for your trip in Reims

5.00Had a great private tour with a very knowledgeable guide (Thomas). The guide picked us up and dropped us off at the train station in Reims, which made it an easy day trip from Paris. We visited some small growers in the champagne region and learned a lot about the champagne production process.

5.00Producers carefully chosen based on request at registration. Impeccably thoughtful and skilled guides native to the area. Comfortable pace. Excellent lunch experience at Le Corbier. Overall, I can’t imagine a reason to choose any other service in this region.
Wonderful Experience

5.00We had the most wonderful visit to Champagne. Perrine was the most welcoming and fun tour guide! She was so knowledgeable and helped us learn all kinds of fun facts while we enjoyed the beautiful region and amazing champagne. We would highly recommend a private tour with Perrine to make the most of your visit to this beautiful part of France.
Outstanding guide, great tour!

5.00Perfect cutomer service from start to finish. We booked a private tour with a preset schedule. Clarification of payment, tweaks of the the schedule could be arragend in one quick phone call and some emails. The tour was planned to start at 10:00am with pickup in our Hotel. The guide was waiting at the lobby at 09:50. (This enlightned my german "on time is already late"-heart ;-) ) Martin is a well seasoned guide, a lot of knowledge of facts and dates but is also well connected with the wine grovers you visit and you really get insights in whats going on rather then getting reproduced memorized scripts. TOP guide, highly recommend asking for him. He is also very whitty and got a great sense of humor. It was a "a friend shows you around" experience and not "a guide doing his job". 6 stars out of 5 For lunch went to the A la Francaise Headquarters in the Champagne region, where you can meet also the other groups of the day. While waiting on the Aperitif we had the chance to chat with the owner about his concept of tours. Great guy with some brilliant ideas. Lunch was prepared onsite by their own chef and it was very good. Wine and champagne were included with the lunch. We visited two wineries, and went to many hot spots in the region. Perfect day to get an idea of what to visit and where to go on your one. The weather was not the best, but this is nothing I can blame A la francaise for. Long story short. Great company, great offering. Will recommend you on any occasion. Btw: Is there a chance your Chef can send me the recipe of the meat pie you served Oct 1st? ;-)
Amazing tour!

5.00It was an absolutely coherent and relaxed day. Everything was of high quality and well organized. The bus, the knowledgeable and very personable travel companion was magnificent. The communication in advance of planning the individual private tour was already great. At Le Clos Corbier everyone was very welcoming and warm. Thank you for the unforgettable birthday tour. The organisation of our private tour was perfect and of very high quality. The tour guide and person at the champagne house were super friendly and meet all our expectations. Thank you!
Amazing private guided tour of Champagne

5.00We (my wife, college-aged daughter, and I) spent an incredible 3 days on a private tour of Champagne with A la Française — 2 days doing tours and tastings and one day doing a bike trip in the area. We are foodies and serious wine appreciators and this was our first trip to the area. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as the trip of a lifetime. À la Française put together a bespoke schedule for us with private tours of both large, established vintners, such as Ruinart, and small, family owned establishments. The bike tour was amazing with breathtaking scenery and views. Our guide, Martin Boucher, spoke impeccable English, had a wonderful disposition and sense of humor, a deep knowledge a of and passion for wine, and great pride in his home. We learned so much, drank incredible Champagne, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!
