We also stopped at a beautiful lookout point to take photos and talk in more detail about the champagne region. The hotel pickup in the morning was extremely helpful for an early wake up. Would definitely recommend!”

Spend about five and a half hours seeing Paris by air-conditioned coach, eating a three-course lunch at Madame Brasserie on the Eiffel Tower’s first floor, and cruising the Seine. A multilingual escort handles the main logistics, but much of the commentary and cruise experience is self-guided.

“Took the tour mainly for the tour of London and lunch at the Eiffel Tower. We got a short boat ride and lunch and the were told the bus tour of Paris was cancelled. We were told there was heavy traffic due to a farmers strike and to ask Viator for a refund. It was the chance to see all the cool stuff from the bus the got me to book in the first place. We got a refund for two people totalling $39. Thanks Viator.”

Champagne Day Trip from Paris with 8 Tastings & Lunch

12.Champagne Day Trip from Paris with 8 Tastings & Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 607 reviews · 11 hours (approx.) · from $353

Spend about 11 hours in Champagne with a wine-expert driver-guide and no more than eight people. Visit a major house, a family estate or cooperative, and a vineyard viewpoint. Taste at least eight Champagnes, enjoy a paired lunch, and return to central Paris in the evening.

“We had a great and memorable experience with Huw. Starting with fresh croissant on the ride, next stop Pommery's cave cellar tour which almost felt like an art exhibition (where focus was not just champagne). Then moved on to Le Clos Corbier for lunch paired with different champagne, and ended at a small family run Michele Tixier. Great breadth of experience all in one day. Got us back to Paris early enough to catch dinner and drinks!”
