    Champagne of a Lifetime

    It has now been three months since our Christmas trip to Reims and barely a day passes without thinking back upon our champagne experience with Stéphane. These are memories that will last a lifetime and we cannot wait to return to the region. Stéphane’s knowledge of champagne, his wonderful storytelling ability and his French joie de vivre made the tour an unforgettable adventure. His intimate relationships with the champagne houses means the journey through this fascinating part of French history feels personal and engaging. To witness the champagne making process first hand, learn about the region and it’s history, and perhaps most importantly, drink some of the finest champagnes made right from the source, is a must for a lover of bubbly. You won’t regret it. À votre santé.

    Response from the operator: Thank you Ed for your amazing review. It's once in a lifetime tour to do and when you do it you just want to only taste excellent champagne to remember this high quality time in Champagne. Drinking from the source which is produced in so small quantity that you can only find them here is my pleasure to share with you. (and to send to your door too). Now you are champagne experts. Thanks again for your recommendation and see you next year !

    3 wonderful days of champagne

    We spent 3 wonderful days with Stephane learning about champagne, visiting both big houses and small producers, and seeing the beautiful areas of Reims and Epernay. Stephane customized the itinerary based on our requests and was incredibly communicative and responsive during the planning process. We found that he was just as knowledgeable (if not more) than the guides who provide the cellar tours and appreciated the private tours he arranged. Although the famous champagne houses are a must-see for first time visitors, we loved the small producers the most. I did quite a bit of research to compare your companies, and I’m so glad that I booked with Stephane. We will absolutely book with him again on our next trip.

    Response from the operator: Thank you Shelly for your wonderful review about these 3 wonderful days ! I am also glad you booked my tour afetr research to compare the companies :) I'm waiting for you for next trip in Champagne ! Cheers, Stephane

    Unparalleled 3 Day Experience

    3 days in Champagne tour by Stephane was amazing - exceeding our expectations. The tour provided a holistic perspective of Champagne production including tours and tastings at several small and large producers in Reims and Epernay. We learned so much - not just about Champagne but of the region's history and culture. Breakfast and lunch were delicious at places we would have not been able to find on our own. Our guide Stephane was welcoming and hospitable, extremely knowledgeable, responsive to our questions and adaptive to our tour. We would highly recommend this unparalleled experience.

    Response from the operator: Thank you Robert for sharing your "Unparalleled 3 days experience" ! I had a great time with you and your family sharing my prefered and hidden places with you. Seen you soon. Cheers ! Stephane

    INCREDIBLE journey!!!

    We went september 2020 to the area of Champagne. It was an INCREDIBLE journey to never forget! #makememories Stéphane was our private tourguide for 3 days. He’s a very nice guy and could tell us everything about the area and about the process of making champagne. He also knows very good local restaurants. Stéphane arranged a perfect planning based on our wishes. That’s exactly why i loved him as our tourguide. I definitly recommend to book a tour at ‘tours in champagne’!

    Response from the operator: Thank you very much Tessa for your great review. I had a great time during this 3 days with you and I'm really happy you appreciate it so much also. See you sson !

    3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reims.

    How much does 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage cost?

    +

    Prices start at $2,158 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 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 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 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage?

    +

    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 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage?

    +

    Around 1 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 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3 days in Champagne - Cellars, tastings, winemakers meetings and heritage 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.
