All Reims Tours & Excursions in 2026

We had a fantastic tour with Nicolas and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Champagne. Nicolas was a brilliant guide — personable, relaxed and incredibly knowledgeable. Having worked in the vineyards himself, he was able to bring the whole process of growing the grapes and producing Champagne to life with genuine first-hand insight. Travelling in the beautifully restored Ford GPW made the experience even more special. Restored by Nicolas’ father, the vehicle has its own fascinating connection to the region and its post-war history, which added another layer to Nicolas’ storytelling. One of the real highlights was being able to leave the main roads behind and travel along quiet vineyard tracks to some beautiful viewpoints. At times it genuinely felt as though we had the vineyards entirely to ourselves. The Champagne Nicolas provided for us to taste was also delicious and, importantly, had been deliberately chosen from a local producer rather than simply reaching for one of the famous big labels. One of the great pleasures of our time in Champagne was discovering the smaller, family-run houses which are so fundamental to the character, traditions and continued story of the region, and it was great that Nicolas shared that philosophy. More than anything, Nicolas was simply a pleasure to spend time with. The whole tour felt personal and unhurried rather than overly organised or touristy, and we came away with a much better understanding and appreciation of Champagne, its vineyards and the people behind it. A genuinely memorable experience and one of the highlights of our time in Champagne.
