Welcome to Paris! This evening, you’ll meet your crew and get to know each other over dinner at a local French restaurant. Get ready for good food, great conversation, and your first real taste of the city.
Paris to Bordeaux
Grab one last croissant this morning. Then it’s full speed ahead as you travel south towards France’s wine capital. Oh hello, Bordeaux. You’ll get your bearings on an orientation led by your Trip Manager, then the evening’s all yours. If wine’s your thing, Le Bar à Vin is a local favourite for top-quality pours — and a pretty great way to ease into the city.
Bordeaux
More wine on the menu today? You bet. You’ll discover Saint-Émilion and its famous wines on an optional guided tour. Back in Bordeaux, the afternoon will be yours to explore your way. Check out La Cité du Vin, or go all in on local flavours (and yes, the canelé is a must!).
Bordeaux to Burgundy via Paris
Bye bye, Bordeaux. This morning, we’ll hop on a train and head east to Burgundy, watching the scenery shift as vineyards and countryside roll past the window. A quick stop in the City of Light to stretch the legs and swap trains before rolling on to our next destination. Welcome to Dijon in Burgundy. You’ll take a short orientation with your Trip Manager to ease into town, get settled, and start feeling out the rhythm of the region.
Burgundy
Lucky you - you’ve got a free day to spend checking out Burgundy however you like. But if you’re keen to get moving, the optional bike ride along the Voie des Vignes is calling. You'll cycle past vineyard-lined villages and get a closer look at local life along the route.
Burgundy to Champagne
Time to say goodbye to Burgundy. You’ll hop on the train and head north to Champagne, leaving vineyard views behind and rolling into a whole new region. Hello, Champagne. You’ll arrive in Reims and head out on foot to explore the medieval city, weaving through historic streets and easing into the vibe of your next stop.
Champagne (Including Epernay)
Welcome to the home of the bubbles. Today, we’ll catch a train to Epernay to visit a Champagne house.Time to kick things off with a tour and tasting at a Champagne house. You’ll get the inside scoop on how this iconic drink is made (and a very solid excuse to say cheers before noon).Back in Reims, you’ve got one last night with your crew. This evening, you can choose to join an optional farewell dinner at a local restaurant for a final toast to the trip.
Champagne to Paris
Reims, you’ve been a dream. But Paris will be calling your name. This morning, you’ll jump on the train and head back to the capital. And just like that, we'll be back where it all began. After a week of shared moments and new memories, it’s time to say goodbye to your crew and head off in different directions.
