Overview

Discover Epernay and its surroundings on board an amazing open-top imperial bus that allows you to enjoy a superb view of the Champagne landscapes.

The tour is accompanied by Marie-Antoinette, your Guide, a local child from a family of winegrowers who shares anecdotes, stories and traditions that are the soul of Champagne.

The tour begins on the famous Avenue de Champagne, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the great Champagne houses follow one another. Then head to the vineyard-lined hillsides and the emblematic villages of the region such as Hautvillers, the cradle of champagne and Aÿ in the hours option, village of the prestigious Bollinger house.

You will taste 3 flutes of champagne from local selections, accompanied by a small snack.

Finally, on a festive Rating, watch a demonstration of sabering, an iconic tradition of the region, as spectacular as it is convivial.
