Good tour and guide. We enjoyed our day. Real early start and starting point wasn’t ideal to get some food first. Might want to consider a change to the starting point.

Anatole was amazing and made the trip. He had such great history and interesting stories about French history and champagne. I would highly recommend him!

The tour was great, I especially enjoyed smaller Champagne houses visits- great time and amazing value. Especially in Vincey house, with Marina. Hot air balloon didn't happen but we got to taste another champagne instead- that was a great substitution in my opinion. Anatole, our guide was very informative. The only thing I didn't enjoy is that DESPITE the small group size :5 people and a baby- we were ushered to eat inside ( inside!!!!) the restaurant in the back room with no view and no people watching. But then- I could've chosen to be rude and ditch the group and have a meal on my own .
Definitely recommend the tour. Will definitely be back. I only wish we started the tour later in the day and stayed for early dinner instead of early lunch.
