He didn’t show! (Wasn’t a tour but a driver)
I told him i won’t write e negative review but he didn’t show up!! (Sent a non English speaking driver instead) The tour guide accommodated the tour and ensured i got the date i required but nonchalantly 12 hours before the tour started said he can’t make it and sending someone else. The driver was pleasant and professional but couldn’t speak English. He didn’t even bother to check or ask during and after the tour!!!! Unprofessional and disrespectful. The tour line up was a starter kit and easy to get appointments - so get the itinerary and do it yourself!
Response from the operator: Hello, thank you very much for your review. I'm sincerely sorry. Something unexpected happened. The driver speaks English, but not like me. I asked you if you still wanted to do it or if I should cancel so you could get a full refund. You wanted to continue. Next time when you come, it will be me, 100% as usual. Regarding reservations, it's not so simple, especially since you booked on June 5th for June 7th. To find availability for this short time, I had to call on my contacts, and I assure you it's not easy, especially since it's high season. I hope you had a great day and that you come back to me for a new adventure. I promise you'll be very happy. Thank you

Perfect
This champagne tour could not have gone better. Due to a strike at the airport we got to Reims mid-morning and missed our first stop but David was all ready for us to move from there. He made accommodations to get our bags to the hotel while we just carried on for 2.5 days in Champagne. The stops, the explanations, the extras...were all fantastic. We gave a few "must-dos" to him (and Larry his planning partner) and they put the rest together. Then he helped us get our rental car for our drive to our next stop in Chablis.
Response from the operator: Thank you I also had a wonderful day you are great looking forward to seeing you again.

Reims experience
David is both knowledgeable about the Champagne houses and personable with us as his guests. His professionalism is excellent, and since we are only marginally bi-lingual, his command of English was very helpful.
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot..

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reims.
How much does 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $400 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reims usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience take?
+
Plan for about 8.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reims is not rushed.
Is 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Reims, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reims can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reims and add a light layer if any part of the 8.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reims within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Reims?
+
On Outty we rank every Reims experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small Group - Full Day Champagne Tour 3 Small Champagne Growers, Small Group - Half Day Champagne Tour - Visit of 2 Small Producers/Growers, Reims or Epernay: Full day Champagne Mumm, family grower & lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Reims?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Reims?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience?
+
Included: Bottled water; On-board WiFi; Elevate Your Journey — Private Luxury Transport; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Alcoholic beverages. Not included: Tip.. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 145 listed pickup locations in and around Reims. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is 100% Champagne Lover An Amazing Champagne Sabrage Experience offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
