" These 2 champagne days are an absolute must! Our guide went to such effort to make this day special for us, we will remember it forever. His knowledge and enthusiasm seemed to be endless, you will learn so much about what makes the region special, it will take days to fully digest. The big wineries are wonderful to see. So huge cellars ! and so many bottles ! His friends winemakers spoilt us with their warm hospitality. The hotel was very well located and perfect. The food was also delicious. One of the highlights for us, was the private tour of the small independent Champagne houses where we learned about the whole process of making the Champagne, from masters of the vines. Stephane translated for us, as our French is limited, although his friends passion were transcendent of any language! The champagne is also helping in fact..... we went back in contact with Stephane a couple of days later to buy more! If you want to experience the real Champagne, from real, passionate people, you will be in for a real treat! Thank you Stephane and Juan, our days with you were the highlight of our entire holiday..... à la prochaine fois. Edward & Katharine.

" Such an unbelievable experience. We loved everything about this experience. Helped create a custom tour and our guide was SO knowledgeable!! Most amazing time.
Thank you so much for such an amazing experience. We had so much fun. The visits was great, the tour was beautiful, and the cellar was so fun. Literally everything about this was memorable. Thanks for everything!!! Suprise the day after : our guide even shared the photos he made.
A true hidden gem just outside of the beautiful city of Reims. Stephane is the perfect host in Champagne and has all the connextions to create amazing tours. Everything there is about champagne - both the region and the drink! I would highly recommend this tour and will definitely come back again to complete it with other addresses. "

" Look no further, this is the tour you want to take! This is an intimate tour carefully crafted to meet a compelling intersection of history, food and of course champagne! We asked for an outside breakfast to be added. It's was gorgeous ! After our first cellar visit and tasting, met us for a champagne picnic lunch in the middle of a vineyard, the food was delicious. We chose to visit the big brands as the small producers and we lived a totally different experience compare to the first one. As exciting ! The personal touches and our guide's deep understanding of the region and relationships with the champagne producers make these 2 days exceptional. "
