Uncork the Soul of Champagne

Travel along the Champagne trail, winding through vineyards, charming villages, castles, and churches on steep hillsides.


Discover the rich history of this iconic drink as you explore Champagne’s legendary cellars, meet passionate winemakers, and taste some of the finest cuvées the region has to offer. With more than 370 Champagne houses, each estate carries its own family stories and centuries-old savoir-faire.

Stroll along Épernay’s celebrated Avenue de Champagne, home to grand maisons such as Moët & Chandon, Pommery, Taittinger, and Veuve Clicquot. Venture into historic underground cellars — some carved in Roman and medieval times — before savoring a tasting at one of these prestigious houses. Later, enjoy a more intimate experience at a boutique family estate.

Continue to Hautvillers, the charming village where Dom Pérignon lived and where the story of Champagne truly began. End your day in Reims with a visit to its majestic cathedral, the coronation site of French kings.
