Beautiful way to see historic Champagne region!
lgntcakes, October 2026
This tour was EXCELLENT! The pickup at our hotel (7:30 am!) was SOOO appreciated! The drive to the region was 1.5 hrs, so a bit long, but we had a little croissant treat for the drive and the scenery once out of the city was beautiful and interesting. The selection of champagne houses we visited was perfect, starting with one very large commercial operation, followed by a delicious lunch (with champagne) at a tiny business in a medieval city and one final small house for a few more glasses of bubbly. It was well-worth the little splurge to be in a small group (full van with a total of 8 tourists) rather than a larger bus-type trip. Cedric was knowledgeable about the region and wines in general, and kept us engaged and entertained. for future tourists, plan with layers, especially if you go in the fall - it was overcast and chilly, especially at the first winery and rather long tour of the cold cellar area. Comfy shoes are a good idea in general, but the cobblestones and cement and uneven terrain are absolutely not meant for heels of any kind.
The van held 9 people in total, including the driver, so the van was a bit tight with 3 in each row. If I had one critique, that would be it. I’d have preferred a bit more room on a 90-minute trip each way. Just plan to be sitting upright and being close with your seat mate. If the choice is a very expensive private ride or a larger trip on a bus, this is definitely the better option for us. Also had zero interest in driving ourselves and after being in the area and driving around, this was confirmed! Roads in the beautiful medieval villages are barely big enough for the van, and I’d imagine would be missed on a larger trip.
Overall a wonderful experience! Highly recommend!

Amazing Day!!!
Valerie_M, October 2026
This day was absolutely perfect! Huw was a knowledgeable and fun tour guide who made the experience so wonderful. Would recommend this trip and guide to anyone visiting the area, it was very worth the trip and money. The Champagne region was absolutely beautiful, and each house we visited was exceptional. Learned a lot about a drink I now love!!
Response from the operator · WinePassportTeam Dear Valerie,
We are thrilled that your day in Champagne was such a highlight!
It is wonderful to hear that Huw shared his passion for the region in a way that made the experience both fun and enriching. And it sounds like Champagne has gained a new fan! We are so glad you enjoyed discovering the region with us.
Best regards,

Bad communication, good champagne
robertsC2537UI, October 2026
This was a solid experience in regards to learning about champagne and getting out to the countryside. Enjoyed seeing new parts of France and learning about champagne. A few gripes. 1: no drop off at hotel 2: I didn’t hear from anyone for days to confirm this trip was even happening. I called and emailed and never heard back. It wasn’t until our driver arrived that I knew with certainty we were actually going on the trip 3. Too long. Should have been shorter.
Response from the operator · WinePassportTeam Dear Robert,
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We are glad you enjoyed discovering Champagne and the beautiful French countryside!
We would like to clarify that hotel drop-off is not included in our small-group tours, which end at Hôtel de Ville in Paris, as mentioned in the tour description. We also let guests know in advance when to expect their pick-up details, and both our team and the guide are available by email or message if any assistance is needed. The full-day duration is also indicated in the offer, as it allows us to visit a variety of Champagne Houses and producers and offer a truly immersive experience beyond Paris.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and hope you left with some great memories of Champagne!
Best regards,
My WineDays Team

Must do
Tracy_C, October 2026
Joel was amazing and the tour was better than we imagined. Great exposure to the champagne region with a bit of history thrown in. Lunch was wonderful, the other guests and Joel made the experience exceptional.
Response from the operator · WinePassportTeam Dear Tracy,
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
We are thrilled to hear that Joel helped make the day so enjoyable and that the experience exceeded your expectations. We will be happy to share your kind words with Joel!
We love that you enjoyed the mix of Champagne, history, countryside, tastings, and a great lunch. Bringing together the different sides of the region is what makes our tours so special.
It sounds like you had a great group, too, which always makes a day in Champagne even more special.
