Departing from Reims Centre station or your hotel between Reims and Épernay at 9 a.m., begin your adventure by crossing the famous Champagne tourist route. Vineyards as far as the eye can see promise absolute serenity throughout your stay. You can even stop for a moment to immortalize this magnificent spectacle.

Once in Épernay, relive the city's history as you cross its prestigious Avenue de Champagne. Spanning several centuries, the evolution of this road will take you back in time. Once known as "la grande route", "la voie royale" and "Faubourg de la Folie", this famous avenue is now home to some of the world's most famous champagne houses. The Avenue de Champagne will take you to one of the most famous: Moët et Chandon. You'll have the privilege of tasting some of their finest bottles. What a sensory experience!

At lunch, local culinary specialties are sure to delight your taste buds, accompanied by sparkling cuvées. After this moment of convivial sharing, head to the Cradle of Champagne, the village of Hautvillers, where the legend will be told in Dom Pérignon's abbey.
