CHAMPAGNE DAY – Epernay, France Champagne Tour
YAY! It’s champagne day!
Today, we splurged on an all-day champagne tour with France Bubbles Tour. We used this same tour company for a champagne tour in Reims, France during our honeymoon. But, this time we are touring Epernay, France!
Throughout the day, we stopped at three different champagne houses to taste many of their champagnes, learn about their history and explore their facilities & vineyards.
We also had the chance to stop in Hautvillers, which is a small, but charming town near Epernay. The Hautvillers Abbey is where Dom Perignon spent the majority of his time and it’s his burial place.
We had so much fun on this tour and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great experience in Epernay or Reims.
Enjoy the video and we’ll see you in our next one as we keep GOING PLACES!

MOST EXPENSIVE STREET IN THE WORLD | EXPLORING CHAMPAGNE REIMS FRANCE
We were surprised to find the most expensive street in the world in the Champagne region around Reims France.
Reims is a city in France close to Paris, so a perfect side-trip from Paris. Reims in North-Eastern France was a major city during the Roman Empire. Later it became a traditional site for the crowning of Kings. Moreover, many of the largest champagne-producing houses have their headquarters here - in fact, champagne ages in the many caves and tunnels under the city.
Want to do the same champagne tasting tour in Reims France? Check out Sparkling Tours:
In this video we explore areas around Reims, go on a Champagne tasting and cave tour as well as the Notre Dame Cathedral. Notre-Dame de Reims (Our Lady of Reims) is a Roman Catholic church in Reims, France. It is the seat of the Archdiocese of Reims, where the kings of France were crowned. The cathedral replaced an older church, destroyed by fire in 1211, that was built on the site of the basilica where Clovis was baptized by Saint Remi, bishop of Reims, in AD 496. That original structure had itself been erected on the site of some Roman baths. A major tourism destination, the cathedral receives about one million visitors annually.
We had the opportunity to pick up a Camper Van from Camper Experience we thought let’s pick our camper van holiday destination BLINDFOLDED and we had NO idea where we were going when we picked the camper van up watch that video here:

Why You Should Travel to Champagne, France and Do a Wine Tour
You can travel to the Champagne region in France on a train from Paris as a simple day trip and do some amazing wine tours of the Champagne Houses if you get up early and get after it!
We recommend training into Epernay, the capital of the Champagne region of France, and tour the Monet House, as well as a few others if you have time.
It's an aggressive itinerary for a single day trip, but it's possible, and in this travel video, you'll see us make it happen. The location of Epernay is only a couple hours via train from Paris, so don't think it isn't possible.
If you have time, we'd stay a couple nights though, there are so many things to do in Champagne.

DAY TRIP TO PARIS ❤️ London To Paris Tour | Eurostar Train Travel Vlog | KLOOK
Go big! We took a London to Paris day trip tour on the Eurostar train and back in one day and loved it! Using the Klook app we booked...⬇ More Below ⬇
Until a week ago Stace had never even been to France, yet here we are back in London and trying to plan some travel, and Paris comes up. So we thought it's best to go big or go home! We found a site called Klook, spotted a London to Paris day trip tour and prepared for a big day of travel.
The Eurostar train is super easy, but the prices fluctuate and it can get crazy expensive! Fortunately Klook secures a crazy cheap cost, comes with a full day tour of Paris, a local guide, lunch & champagne, reserved seats on the Eurostar AND helps you beat all of the lines at the main attractions like the Eiffel Tower by going into the fast track lanes. We were sold.
Everything went super smooth, Paris is stunning, the Eurostar is so quick and comfortable and we ended up having the most amazing day going from London to Paris in one day. If you're trying to find a day trip to Paris from London, definitely check out this trip —
So is it worth going from London to Paris on one day only? Honestly we feel like yes! Paris has a lot more to offer than a day trip would allow, but if you don't want to waste hours flying, only have a few days available and want to get there easily with a guide or just want to take an incredible travel day as a taster - do it! We loved it.
Klook offers a lot more than day trips, check them out here —
Disclaimer: Ad | This video was sponsored by Klook, so they made this trip to Paris (and this vlog) happen - but as always, our opinions are both genuine and strictly our own.

PARIS - Moulin Rouge & Montmartre - Day 3
Day 3 of 42 in Europe... Another early morning in Paris?
Nah. Slept in until 1. After lunch, we headed to the nearby Canal Saint-Martin in the 10th arrondissement for a stroll and some cocktails.
On our way to Moulin Rouge, we take a little walking tour in the neighborhood of Montmartre where many famous artists have lived.
The Moulin Rouge show was fantastic - way better than I had imagined. Watch for the full review.

It is one of the most visited locations on Earth, with tens of millions of visitors each year. This suggested Paris in a Day itinerary starts at 8:45 a.m. and ends at 8:45 p.m. There’s a lot to see and do in the City of Light, so it’s going to be a packed day. If you want to see Paris at a more leisurely pace, we’ve also suggested some areas that you can cut.

Paris, France Video Tour
A Video Tour of Paris, France. Paris France Points of Interest & Paris France Attractions. Many guests choose to enjoy a tour of Paris before or after their cruise. Paris, the ‘City of Lights', is one of the world's truly great cities. The River Seine, lifeblood of the city, splits it neatly in two, flowing past the Ile de la Cité and the famous cathedral of Notre Dame. The history and culture of Paris can also be discovered throughout its distinctive districts. The village atmosphere of hilly Montmartre with its elegant landmark the Sacre Coeur; the Marais district and its winding streets that evoke medieval Paris; and the grand 19th century boulevards that dominate so much of the city.
Paris, France
Paris has so much to offer with its huge variety of heritage, architecture and culture, from the grace of the Louvre Museum, to the ultra-modern Opera de la Bastille; from the wondrous Eiffel Tower, to the Champs-Elysées headed by the Arc de Triomphe. All this, together with wonderful restaurants and some of the best shopping in the world make Paris an unmissable place to visit.
The stylish 12 passenger Panache & the deluxe 8 passenger La Nouvelle Etoile either begin or end many of their cruises in the heart of Paris throughout the year. Whether entering Paris from the north from Picardy, the east from Champagne or south from Burgundy, passing the infamous Eiffel Tower and the magnificent Notre Dame is always one of the great highlights of the cruise.
Many people choose to visit Paris before or after their cruise, a visit in contrast to the peace and relaxation of the cruise itself. This is why the crew of all of our barges which cruise in Burgundy, including our deluxe flag ship La Renaissance, pick you up and drop you off in the heart of Paris, a transfer by air conditioned mini bus included in the price of the cruise.
What is hotel barging?
Despite the growing popularity of cruising, especiallly on large river vessels, hotel barging is still a little known niche concept. Most hotel barges started life as cargo vessels but have since been painstakingly converted to offer luxury boutique accommodation for small groups of up to 20 passengers.
This is cruising, but in a very different style to ships plying the big rivers or oceans. The pace is slow, with a 6 day cruise covering maybe just 50 miles along a rural canal. Passengers can walk or bike the towpaths as their floating hotel glides gently along. Guests enjoy an intimate atmosphere, high levels of personal service and immersion into the culture, history and gastronomy of regions of Europe such as Burgundy, the Midi, or the Italian Veneto.
Every day there is an excursion, perhaps to a chateau, a vineyard for a wine tasting, or some other ‘off the beaten track’ location. About half of European Waterways’ bookings are for whole boat charters, ideal for families. Otherwise, clients book a cabin to join other like-minded people. A ‘slow boat’ European Waterways barge cruise offers the ultimate in experiential travel. A truly unique experience!
European Waterways offer luxury hotel barge cruises on the beautiful canals and rivers of Europe, such as through Burgundy, the Midi, Alsace, the Po Valley, Holland and the Scottish Highlands.
The exclusive collection of hotel barges accommodate up to 20 passengers who may charter a whole barge with family or friends, or join a small group of like-minded travellers on an individual cabin basis.
Each barge is fully crewed with a Captain, chef, hostesses, deck-hand and tour guide. The 6-night cruises include gourmet meals, fine wines, open bar, excursions and the use of facilities such as bicycles and spa pools.

BestTrip.tv's Tour of Taittinger Champage Caves and Tasting in Champagne, France
Experience the Champagne Region in France aboard Hotel Barge Panache
Few places on Earth can boast the name recognition of Champagne in France. This renowned region, famous for the sparkling white wine that bears its name, is also the birthplace of chivalric romance and has been at the crossroads of Europe since Roman times. You can taste the history, heritage and culture in every glass.
The Champagne cruise takes guests along the River Marne through the heart of the Champagne region. Excursions include a visit to La Maison Pannier, a renowned champagne house founded in 1899, where guests will be treated to an exclusive tour of its labyrinth-like cellars and a private tasting. Guests will also enjoy a tour and tasting at another select champagne house, Domaine Ployez-Jacquemart, near Reims, established in 1930 by Marcel Ployez and his wife Yvonne Jacquemart.
The cruise, in which vineyards come down to the water’s edge, also includes a tour of the village of Hautvillers, known as the “cradle of Champagne”. It is here that almost 350 years ago, the monk Dom Perignon discovered the “méthode champenoise,” a special – and many consider the best – way of getting the “sparkle” into the wine, and guests will enjoy a “degustation” of champagnes at a delightful boutique. The magnificent Baroque Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is also on the itinerary, as is a visit to the city of Reims with its Gothic cathedral where 25 Kings of France were crowned.
The Champagne region of France features the stunning landscapes that inspired Impressionist artists such as Renoir. Today it continues to draw visitors and wine aficionados from around the world who wish to sample the famous product that sets the gold standard for sparkling wines.
The River Marne flows from Epernay to Paris, meandering through the beautiful region of Champagne. There is a plethora of vineyards spread across the undulating plains as far as the eye can see and there will be plenty of opportunity to sample the sparkling wine to which the region has given its name, including private tastings at renowned champagne houses.
This is also a part of France that is rich in both modern and ancient history and during our voyage we visit a number of significant landmarks, châteaux and one of the finest Gothic cathedrals in the country where 25 kings of France were crowned.
As well as Champagne, the region is rich in other delicious products, particularly its wonderful creamy cheeses, with the towns of Meaux and Coulommiers at its heart.
Cruise Highlights
• Enjoy private winery tours and tastings at renowned Champagne houses such as Maison Pannier
• Visit the village of Hautvillers where Dom Perignon discovered the Méthode Champenoise
• Tour the majestic cathedral in Reims, where the Kings of France were once crowned
• Cruise the pretty River Marne past waterside vineyards
• Visit the Champagne 'capital' of Epernay for a cellar tour and private tasting
• Visit Château-Thierry, the scene of fierce battles in World War I, and Belleau Wood
