Embark on a journey away from the bustling streets of Paris and venture alongside your knowledgeable guide to one of the esteemed Champagne houses, such as Mercier , nestled in the heart of Epernay, the capital of Champagne. Delve into the depths of the cellars during a captivating 1.5-hour walking tour, immersing yourself in the history and craftsmanship behind each bottle. Conclude your exploration with a delightful tasting of champagne, engaging in discussions about its intricate creation with fellow aficionados in your group.
Following lunch (not provided), rejoin your air-conditioned minivan to depart from Epernay. You'll journey through Reims Mountain Regional Nature Park, renowned for its Grand Crus vineyards, before arriving in Hautvillers alongside your guide. This picturesque village, famously dubbed 'the birthplace of Champagne,' is primarily celebrated for its notable former resident, Dom Pérignon. As an innovative Benedictine monk, Pérignon devoted much of his life to crafting and refining Champagne.
Throughout the scenic route, punctuated by quaint villages and occasional stops, you'll bask in the vineyard's beauty. The culmination of your day will be a visit to a family-operated winery, where you'll indulge in a tasting of four distinct Champagnes before returning to Paris.

This Champagne tour is perfect for wine lovers and curious foodies who want to deepen their understanding of Champagne in its birthplace, rather than just enjoy a quick tasting in Paris. It’s ideal for couples, friends and small groups who appreciate a relaxed yet immersive day: visiting a major house like Moët or Mercier, exploring historic cellars, discovering Dom Pérignon’s village of Hautvillers and meeting a family producer for intimate tastings.
The experience especially suits travelers who value small-group guidance, comfortable minivan transport and the chance to compare big-name cuvées with artisanal Champagnes in a single, well-structured day.
