Pop Up the Champagne!
This week we decided to inspire you with another part of France that we love. Embark for your next destination in the heart of the most beautiful vineyards of Champagne!
Located in north-eastern France, the region of Champagne is most famous for being a home to the bubbly beverage with the same name, attracting many tourists and visitors each year. Meet the winegrowers, share their passion, listen to them talking about the Champagne and their production… They will perhaps tell you some secrets! You will privately discover properties with ancestral know-how and a technique that has been handed down from generation to generation.
/ DAY 1: Gain height by discovering the vineyards of the different champagne houses from the sky with a memorable hot air balloon flight!
/ DAY 2: Enter Maison Ruinart, the oldest established champagne house in the world, in a very exclusive way, with a private visit and tasting! And discover the “route of the Champagne Houses” by bike; the opportunity to stop whenever you want on the road.
