Good tour, beautiful setting for lunch but food itself can be improved. Pace was a little too fast and riding time was a little short for a full day bike tour. Our tour guide is knowledgeable but would be great to have someone from the winery to give the wine tour, that was given by tour guide as well so did not feel as authentic as I was hoping for. Price is on the high side, a similar tour taken in another town in France cost 59 euro less but overall it’s a nice day
Nice active day in beautiful surroundings. Very good bicycles, with bicycle bag in which we could have personal belongings. The guide was nice and the place for lunch was nice!
Bonjour, So glad the e-bikes and the beautiful surroundings made for such an enjoyable day! Cycling through the Champagne vineyards really is something special, and it sounds like the lunch spot added a lovely touch to the experience. Champagne is best enjoyed more than once, and we would love to be part of your next visit! Best regards, A la Française Champagne Team 🥂
This tour and experience was absolutely incredible. Our guide was wonderful and took us everywhere throughout the vineyards and villages with numerous stops for pictures and discussion. The E bikes were in great shape and the final lunch was memorable.

We booked this EV bike tour many months back knowing we’d enjoy it however this day was the highlight of our 3 weeks in France. Like my husband said, for us, this was like a child’s first time in Disneyland. Our wonderful and knowledgeable guide, Jerome, led us through the villages and the heart of the Champagne countryside along the Marne river. We saw beautiful scenery and learned a great deal about the grapes grown in the region. Even thought harvest season was over, there were still a few grapes on the vines and I couldn’t resist tasting. The small grapes were sweet and full of juice. A fabulous lunch was served back where we started at Les Clos Corbier/Collard Milesi following a tour of their facility and their caves. Lunch items were excellent and one of the best meals we had this trip. Our group of 8 consisted of all ages, our excellent guide, Jerome, a perfect fall weather day blended with breathtaking views, the four course lunch served with amazing wine and champagne; with tears in our eyes, we didn’t want this day to end. The bike tour exceeded our expectations and we would definitely do this again.

Martin was our guide and he was wonderful. There were six of us of various experience with bikes. He was safe, fun and informative. Lunch was really good. Martin was a safe driver. Make sure to understand that if you are picked up in Reims, it is a 40 minute drive to the countryside for the tour.
