Private chauffeur from Paris to Champagne

The simple reason to visit Champagne with a chauffeur is that nobody has to drive after the tasting. Your host handles the road, the parking and the timing, and the whole party can enjoy the cellar visit.

Because the day is long — roughly three to five hours on the road in total — a private car is also more comfortable than trains and local transfers between the cathedral city and the wine villages.

Reims is the cathedral city where French kings were crowned, and many of the large champagne houses have cellars beneath the town. Épernay, a short drive away, is home to the famous Avenue de Champagne, and between them lie vineyard villages that are worth a stop.

Tell us how much you want to see — one cellar and the cathedral, or a slower day among the villages — and we plan the timing around your reservations.

Champagne houses set their own visiting hours and many require a reservation, so book your visit first and tell us the time. We plan the departure from Paris around it and suggest a lunch stop. A day trip is realistic; a night in the region makes a slower, richer visit.

We do not publish a price for day trips, because it depends on your plan: the distance, the time on the road and at your disposal, whether you return the same day, how many of you travel, tolls and parking, and extras such as a licensed guide.

Send us your date and what you would like to see and we reply with one clear quotation for the whole itinerary.

Your chauffeur-host drives, helps with your route, suggests stops and shares general information from the car. Commentary inside museums and historic monuments usually requires a licensed guide-conférencier — we can arrange one on request. Read driver-host or licensed guide to choose.

The Mercedes V-Class carries up to seven passengers with generous luggage space, and child seats are available on request. Tell us how many of you are travelling and the ages of any children when you ask for your quotation.
