Hilton Moorea Lagoon Resort & Spa
The lush and sprawling vineyards of Champagne

Champagne

Located to the east of the Paris region, Champagne is a renowned historic province in France that holds a special place in the country's cultural heritage. This captivating region offers picturesque landscapes adorned with vine-covered hillsides, charming family-run cellars, and the joyful clinking of glasses. Champagne, along with Reims, is part of the larger Grand Est region, situated in northeastern France.

The Champagne is not the only place that produces sparkling wine, but it’s the only one with a solid claim to the name. Only those produced in the area can be called champagne, the others are just sparkling wines. For fans of the bubbly, travelling to the region for the sole purpose of enjoying champagne right where it originated is a big must. People are also attracted to the region because of its old cities and villages straight out of some storybook. The soaring Notre-Dame Cathedral in Reims teases the imagination with its 13th Century Gothic art, the half-timbered houses of Troyes offer a glimpse into medieval France, while Langres, perched on its rocky promontory, seduces visitors to melt into the laidback vibes of country life.

Things To See And Do

  • Wander Epernay’s Avenue de Champagne where the top maisons de champagne (champagne houses) are waiting to be explored. Neoclassical villas and stately mansions line the Avenue, including Moët’s private Hôtel Chandon and the impressive red brick mansion Château Perrier.

  • Take in the vast, beautiful interior of Reims’ resplendent Notre Dame Cathedral which features stained-glass windows, a flamboyant Gothic organ case, and a statue of Joan of Arc in armour.

  • Amble along the cobbled streets of old Troyes where chalkcoloured half-timbered houses create the perfect setting for a Disney movie.

  • Visit the impressive Mémorial Charles de Gaulle and gain some insights of the Algerian war and rise of the Fifth Republic.

  • Learn the history and tradition that surround the region’s champagne industry while looking at century-old champagne-making equipment housed in the Musée de la Vigne et du Vin.

  • See the ‘chicken coop’ cells in the Grand Cloître of the 12th-century Abbaye de Clairvaux Monastery. The complex used to be one of the highest-security prisons in France.

  • Walk the hallways of the lavish Palais du Tau, a UNESCO-listed neoclassical building that served as a former residence of the archbishop. The Palais turned museum now houses some noteworthy treasures including Charlemagne’s 9th-Century talisman and St. Remi’s 12th-Century gem-encrusted chalice.

Thank you Entire Travel and especially Lisa. Our Tahiti holiday was amazing from start to finish. From the time of booking until we left, the whole experience was so easy and thorough.. Anytime I rang to ask a question,Lisa and staff were beyond helpful. Once we arrived in Tahiti, the transfers went without a hitch, they were there each and every time, once we arrived on Moorea it was beyond paradise. The Manava Resort was more than we imagined, it was incredible. We loved every second. Thank you Lisa and The Entire Travel Groip and Tahiti Nui.. I will happily recommend you.. Many Thanks Vicki B..

A big thank you to Entire Travel Group with a special thanks to Alison. We had mostly organised our own overseas holidays in the past but being unfamiliar with Canada we thought we would approach a travel agency. Thinking the travel agency would help us we were surprised to be handed a couple of booklets and told to go away and come back when we knew what we wanted to do. One of the booklets was Entire Travel Group so after viewing what was available we decided to contact you directly. That decision changed the Entire course of our traveling experience, excuse the pun. We sent an email to the Entire Group and over the next few days had spoken to Alison who listened, was knowledgeable and responsive to our requests, questions and doubts about travelling to Canada. At the conclusion we had holiday package which we could have only dreamed about. Alison and the team worked wonders and we were extremely happy with a holiday that was brilliant.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We have just returned from a wonderful independent trip through Canada organised by Sam Treby at Entire Travel. Sam took the time to understand what we wanted and put together an itinerary that suited us perfectly. The accommodation, tours and travel arrangements were all excellent and everything ran smoothly throughout the trip. A particular highlight was the interactive itinerary, which was detailed, easy to use and invaluable while travelling. What impressed us most was that the service didn't stop once we departed. When a question arose during the trip, Sam responded promptly and resolved it for us. It was reassuring to know that support was only a message away. We thoroughly enjoyed our Canadian adventure and would happily recommend Entire Travel and Sam to anyone planning a similar holiday.
