Lovely guide (English tour) - informative visit to the historic caves. Well organised and excellent tasting afterwards.
My boyfriend and I visited these caves without much forward planning and we were so pleased we did! Our guide was very informative and friendly and the caves are amazing to see. We learnt a lot and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We were also pleased to support the last family run large Champagne house in France. The champagne was lovely...

If you are interested in the process and place of making champagne this is a very good program to take in. It is a bit Disneyesque in that it starts with a film but you do have to walk through the caves yourself (no trams!) and this includes a good stair climb. The caves are interesting.

We had a most enjoyable and educational tour of the caves. Not only did we learn a great deal about how champagne is created, but we were blessed to walk through such special places as 12th century monastery arches and 4th century Roman mines while we learned.
Les Caves de Taittinger in Reims are unique in that they are chalk and quite extensive. These were old Roman cellars that are used to store Champagne and the chalk ensures a level of humidity and the depth a fairly constant temperature for Champagne to age in the bottles.
It was 16 Euros per person and that included one tasting....
