It's time for a day trip to the Champagne region!
This week, I'll show you a great way to visit the Champagne region with the help of Bertrand d’Aleman from award-winning travel company My Private Paris.
We took the train to Reims, then hired a car to get to the Pommery house, followed by smaller Pierre Paillard house, which has been in the same family for eight generations.
My Private Paris is a local deluxe agency, crafting itineraries for tours in Paris and beyond (including, of course, Champagne). See what they offer here.
Music: Pres Maxson.

0:56.5 | well and then there's rance the city that's so close to paris that is really worth exploring too |
1:01.9 | so you can do it in many different ways the way that we did it is just one version if you want to book a |
1:07.8 | trip with my private paris you can do it like we did it or however you like. |
1:12.6 | So before we get out to Champagne, the music, Press Maxen is back with his version of a classic 80s tune that he's reimagined to make it move a little more. |
