L’Essentiel Tour plunges you into the heart of the Champagne region’s magnificent wine-growing landscapes. The tour takes you on a ride in a vintage car, with commentary on the destination and how the vines are grown. Through hillsides and valleys, embrace an exceptional natural setting and discover the history of Champagne.
From Reims, take the Champagne tourist route and admire its magnificent architectural heritage. The city’s many buildings bear witness to its rich history. You won’t want to miss the imposing Reims Cathedral or the Basilique St Rémi. Your Essentiel Tour guide will tell you all about these historic sites throughout your tour.
To round off your roadtrip, enjoy a glass of champagne in the middle of the vineyards! To accompany your glass of champagne, try Reims’ famous pink cookies. You can also try the sabrage experience, offered as an optional extra. And don’t forget to immortalize the moment by taking a few shots in front of these wonderful landscapes.
