  1. Reims Champagne Tasting & G.H. Mumm House Cellar Tour

  Take a 1-hour cellar tour of the legendary G.H. Mumm House in Reims and explore the intricate world of champagne making. With over 15 miles (25 kilometers) of galleries and 25 million bottles of champagne, it is an exquisite and refined world that has been at the heart of Champagne production since 1827. On this program you’ll learn about the champagne-making process, including all the main stages involved in making the world-famous Cordon Rouge. You’ll also have the opportunity to visit the museum, which is one of the finest of its kind, documenting the history of the champagne process. After the tour, you’ll have around 30 minutes to enjoy a tasting of some famous fine champagne.

  It was a nice experience! Different from any other Champagne Tour that we had. The Guide was really friendly, funny and have a lot of knowledge. We recommend this Tour for you if you looking for an affordable Tour, it’s worth the price

  What a fantastic day, in spite of it being rainy, cloudy and overcast! Bastein provided us with a great narrative of the region during our time together and I was sorry to see our day come to an end. Our lunch with a French producer was just delightful…..food was delicious and our host shared her love of champagne and food with such a beautiful smile! So glad we added this trip to our Paris itinerary.

  6. From Paris: Small-Group Moët & Chandon Champagne Tour

  The only place in the world that is able to grow and produce Champagne is located just outside Paris. On this full-day (11-hour) excursion you’ll also learn about the history of Champagne master Dom Perignon. Visit the quaint chapel and grave site of Dom Perignon, the father of Champagne and then meet with a local producer to learn about the growing process. Enjoy a fully guided tour at the House of Moët and Chandon, the world’s largest producers of Champagne. Take a walk through part of their 40 kilometers of cellars. Before heading back to Paris you’ll also visit the beautiful Cathedral of Reims and have free time to explore inside where all of the French Kings were crowned. During the day you’ll have the opportunity to taste at least 4 different types of Champagne and even pick up some bottles for souvenirs if you’d like. They can accompany you back to Paris in the van.

  I love the way the tour was organized- the first visit to the family vineyard with an in depth explanation & then the tour of Moët and Chandon as a review guide. The only complaint we had was the guide recommended a restaurant and only gave us 45 minutes for lunch. We had to severely rush even though we requested more time from the guide (she gave us 10 minutes). All this so we could walk across the parking lot to Moët and Chandon in order to arrive 10 minutes early and then wait another 10-15 minutes.
