This was a great tour and our guide was very knowledgeable. It was interesting seeing the different champagne houses and especially tasting the different champagnes. Our favorite was the small champagne house we visited last, Monmarthe. Our guide there was very personable and showed us the entire process and their champagne was fantastic! The tour there only included the 8 people on our tour. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time on this tour. It was our first trip to the Champagne region and we learned so much from our tour guide as well as from the different vineyards we visited. Lunch was excellent and our tour guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. We wouldn't change a thing!

Our guide was a viticulture educated wonder. So knowledgeable about the region, the history and the process of making champagne. The tour was a good mix of large wineries (Moet and Chandon) and two smaller ones. The lunch our guide provided was one of the best meals we had in France. My wife and I liked the fact that there was just one other family besides ourselves on the tour. We felt we could always ask any question we had. I would highly recommend this tour. – Greg Finn, Sacramento, CA USA

It was the highlight of my stay, even though it was freezing out. Small group of fun people. The private winerys were fun to visit, and had a lovely meal in a grand country home.. Very gracious owners. I learned alot about Champagne.. Great tour for a day out of Paris..

This is the trip we enjoyed most in our entire Europe trip. The tour guide was very good. He was very passionate about wine making. The medium and small size winery were truly beautiful. We had great time and also the champagne was great!

Fantabulous tour! Our driver Remy picked up our diverse 6 pack of peeps and we were off-Moët and Chandon with all of its pomp and grandeur, lunched after tour-n-tasting @ the boutique bubbly house of Nicolaus Maillart and completed the tantalizing of our taste buds @ the house of Lancelot-Pienne.

YOU MUST DO THIS TOUR. Honestly, the amount of champagne you drink is not an issue - there's heaps!!! It's the professional approach and learning experience you receive from the tour guide (in my case 'Guilame') that makes the difference. This guy was superb. It wasn't his mastors degree in 'champagne making/tasting' that increased my faith in the tour, it was his rapport with the small group that did it for me. He was only ever too happy to impart his knowledge and in a way that showed his aptness as an instructor. The lunch was perfect in terms of its size and its 'match' for the several champagnes that we 'felt obliged' to consume. If you've got 12 hours to kill, this is a perfect way to do it. Although, if you're like me, as soon as you hit the Champagne region, you'll wish you hadn't stayed in Paris for as long as you did!

Definitely enjoyed tasting several champagnes at 3 wineries. Generous. Also was great to picked up at apartment rather than have to connect at a central location (especially since it was pouring rain!) Guide , Guillaume, was very knowledgeable.

The trip, led by Remy, was fantastic. Knowledgeable guide and some smaller houses made for an interesting day.
Viator, however, was quite difficult to deal with. They did not respond in a timely manner to requests for confirmation and refused to pass my contact information on to the guide so he was unable to reach me to confirm pickup. By the time Viator acknowledged which company was running the tour on Monday it was already Sunday and their offices were closed. Not impressed with Viator as a booking agent but would go with the actual company again.

The champagne tour was quite organized and lovely. Our day was picture perfect. We had 3 wineries to visit. In my perfect world...a good,comprehensive tour of one winery is sufficient. We had 3 comprehensive tours...
The lunch was amazing! Not because of anything except that it was in a small champagne manufacturers home and was to lovely intimate. It was a wonderful day. Many thanks
