Bollinger
Our special Champagne Tours visit the leading caves and taste prestigious Champagnes over a long weekend. You will visit leading Champagne Houses for in-depth visits and Champagne tastings all accompanied by wonderful meals. This range of tours has been designed for those with a more passionate interest in Champagne or for those looking for more comfort and luxury all round.
We have a more intimate party size so that you have even more space to spread out on the coach and to bring back more champagne - up to as many as 48 bottles per person if you wish. With a smaller sized group we are able to visit some cellars that are only accessible in a smaller party. We include the Club Class lounge on the ferry (a quiet comfortable private lounge where complimentary tea, coffee, biscuits and champagne are served).
Our Champagne Extra tours are all about superlatives. You'll visit leading Champagne houses as well as some of the very best growers. These tours offer you the exclusive opportunity of lunching or dining at a Champagne house as VIP guests.
Two gastronomic meals in prestigious settings as private guests at Champagne Houses or at Michelin starred restaurants are included. Our comparative tasting on the first evening is of a mouthwatering selection of prestige champagnes. The visits go into great depth and you will be offered Champagnes from the greatest houses, older wines and top cuvées.
As these tours are unique to Arblaster & Clarke and generally sell out very quickly so we strongly recommend booking early.
Joining on location
It is also possible to join the tours on location in Champagne so if you wish to self-drive or go by train you may choose to do so. In which case you will need to be in Reims by 6.30pm on the first evening and the tour finishes at approx 3.30 pm in Reims. You can usually be dropped off at the hotel or at the TGV station (about 5 minutes walk from the hotel) which has regular trains to Paris in 45 minutes.
We can also arrange transfers to and from central Paris or Paris Charles de Gaulle airport by Limousine, Taxi or Renault espace.
