Must visit the Region
Great region to visit. Very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. Selecting family producers was the right choice.
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Thank you for your lovely review! We’re glad you enjoyed discovering the Champagne region and meeting our family producers. We’re also happy to hear you appreciated your guide. We hope to welcome you back to Champagne soon! Best regards, A La Française Champagne Team 🥂

Beautiful Area! Worth the visit!
Our tour with Tom was enjoyable. We learned a lot about producing champagne. There were a few things that could be improved. Tom was friendly and knowledgeable but the 8 passenger van was very dirty. You couldn’t see the beautiful landscape thru the filthy windows. We were never offered water which I think is mandatory for these wine drinking tours. There should have been a cooler or something for us to put any wine purchases. I think Tom could have been a little more professional in his manner. Opening doors and helping guests in and out of Van.

Day trip to Champagne
I had a wonderful experience on this tour! I took the train from Paris for the day to join this tour. Pickup was very easy (right outside the train station in Reims). Each of the 3 stops was special and unique. I loved the mix of a big champagne house with a few smaller family owned ones. We had lunch at the second chateau which was delicious. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly (coming from a family of champagne makers herself!). Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone!
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Thank you for this lovely review! We are so glad the day trip from Paris worked out so seamlessly and that each family producer felt so unique and special. A bientôt in Champagne, we hope to see you back very soon! Best regards, A la Française Champagne Team 🥂

Excellent and knowledgeable guide and great tour of the region
We had a great tour guide named Zoe, who had extensive knowledge of the industry, area and history of Champagne. Our guide also mentioned that her family is also involved in the industry, which would have been great to learn more about in the introduction to the session. We had a very lovely lunch with accommodation for vegetarian options (three course + cheese) with paired wines and a tasting. Each family operation was a unique visit and I would highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone wanting to learn more. It would be worth doing this tour along with the major houses to get a full idea of the region.
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Thank you for this lovely review! We are so glad the family producers, the vegetarian lunch and Zoe's extensive knowledge made for such a memorable day. Champagne is best enjoyed more than once, and we would love to be part of your next visit! Best regards, A la Française Champagne Team 🥂

Sparkling day
What a fantastic day with an awesome guide. We now know so much more not only about how champagne is produced but also about the history of champagne. So glad we joined this tour.
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Thank you for this lovely review! We are so glad the day delivered both on the history and the production side of Champagne, leaving with that kind of knowledge is the best souvenir! Champagne never runs out of surprises, and we would love to share more of them with you! Best regards, A la Française Champagne Team 🥂

From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reims.
How much does From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $251 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 From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 6.3 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 From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 275 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Reims, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch?
+
Around 96 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 6.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Reims: Champagne Small-Group tour with tastings & Lunch 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.

Not included: Hotel Pick-up and Drop-off; Personal expenses; Other drinks; and Pick-up and drop-offs in Paris. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
