Listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site, the 13th-century Notre-Dame Cathedral in Reims is one of Europe’s most important Gothic structures. Be captivated by the unique stained glass windows and the exceptionally rich statuary – over 2 300 statues, among which is the famous smiling Angel. It is here that King Clovis was baptized around 498 giving birth to the Kingdom of the Franks and beginning a long and enduring tradition: with the exception of two, all the kings of France were crowned here!

Guided tour and tasting at the world-famous Grand Maison de Champagne Veuve Clicquot.

House founded in 1772 by Philippe Clicquot and his widow Barbe Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin. For a while, take a dip in the heart of this House, its heritage, its savoir-faire. And discover the process of manufacturing cuvées.

Lunch in Epernay

Visit of the Pressoria museum, Five senses awakened in a unique place in Champagne

Much more than a museum, a visit to Pressoria is a true invitation to travel, during which you will enjoy a series of stops, each one more pleasurable than the last.

In fact, if the tour through the museum rooms is an excellent way to discover champagne in all its forms, it is also an initiation that awakens the senses one by one.

What are our clients saying about our tours?

Very enriching experience

We decided to make the tour with the agency of “My Normandy Tour” for having the option of French guide speaking english.

We had already visited the region before, but we thought that a guide in English would complete what was missing.

Pierre planned and executed our tour corresponding to all our expectations and beyond, because the contact with someone local gives us a very different view of culture, language, politics, etc.

very enriching experience.
