Just 90 minutes from Paris, the Champagne region awaits—its rolling vineyards, historic villages, and prestigious Champagne houses making it a must-visit for wine enthusiasts and history lovers alike.

Your day begins along the famed Route du Champagne, winding through picturesque villages and lush vineyards. A stop in Châtillon-sur-Marne offers a panoramic view of the Marne Valley, home to timber-framed churches and the towering statue of Pope Urban II, a native of this very village.

Next, arrive in Épernay, the capital of Champagne. Here, you’ll step into the cellars of Moët & Chandon, one of the world’s most legendary Champagne houses. A Champagne expert will guide you through the winemaking process—from grape picking to bottling—before a tasting session introduces you to the house’s signature flavors.

Your journey continues to Hautvillers, the birthplace of Dom Pérignon. A visit to the village’s historic church pays tribute to the man behind Champagne’s legend.

After a leisurely lunch in a traditional local restaurant, you’ll explore Reims, known as the “Coronation City” for its role in French royal history. If time allows, a private guided tour of the magnificent Notre-Dame de Reims Cathedral will reveal its architectural grandeur and centuries of French heritage.

Before returning to Paris, you’ll stop at a family-owned Champagne house, such as Roger Constant Lemaire, Ployez Jacquemart, or Tribaut, for an intimate tasting. Here, the winemakers themselves will share their family history, production secrets, and, of course, their finest bubbles.
