After lunch (not included) head straight to the Marne Valley and see where the Champagne grapes are grown. In the village of Hautvillers, make a stop to visit the tomb of Dom Pérignon, located in the beautiful Hautvillers Abbey. Dom Pérignon made his mark in history by profusely contributing to the enhancement of the production and the quality of wine in the Champagne region. He also pushed forward white and sparkling wines in a region where, in his time, red wine was still dominant. The legend says he was so skilled, he could tell which vineyard a single grape came from just by tasting it. Today, one of the most famous champagne brands, Dom Pérignon, is still named after him.

After enjoying the beauty of the vine, little villages and making a few photostops, we will take you to a much smaller family Champagne producer. You will discover another side of the champagne making business, operating on a much smaller scale than Möet & Chandon or Veuve Clicquot and other big estates. Learn how champagne is traditionally made and try some vintages you have never tasted before. An authentic, small batch champagne wine coming straight from the Champagne region makes a great souvenir from a trip to France, or a gift that family and friends will love.

I was happily surprised, since I have never booked a tour with Mariott Bonvoy. Marcela was my tour guide and she was amazing. She spoke both English & Spanish and made the group comfortable. her explanation of all the sites we were seeing was impressive. I would highly recommend Marcela.
