Fantastic Champagne Experince - Having the ultimate luxury experience with a great personal driver (Dennis) and guide (Emily) take us to 4 great champagne experiences was unforgettable! We had an amazing time & they were both brilliant. We felt like millionaires for the day with our own “personal assistant” to organize everything & our driver to swiftly take us anywhere.

Champagne in the company of a llama. - We visited the Champagne region and three wineries thanks to this wonderful company. Allow yourself a treat with Champagne bubbles! In addition to the guide and driver, we were accompanied by a llama, the company's mascot. It was fun. We liked everything.

Cheers for this tour! - We didn’t notice how 9 glasses passed! It was so much fun. Especially with our guide Emy who was always with us treating us with fun stories! We visited 3 Chanpagne houses - each was an excellent choice! Driving there was a bit too long (2 hours) but on the way back we all slept as babies

Champagne Champagne! - We had a blast on this tour! Our driver was a riot! We did three tastings and even continued our own tasting in the car on the way back after buying some bottles at Veuve. So much fun packed into one day

It was a very complete tour - We chose to do it without a guide and our driver was very friendly. Each stop was interesting and delicious. There was a lot of champagne, which cheered us up pretty quickly. The pace was a little fast and I would recommend eliminating a tasting to get some rest. Still, it was a lot of fun!

Not for anyone over 35 - The 2 actual Champagne houses visited were lovely tours. Unfortunately this is a young company whose focus is on things like being impressed by Teslas and not on serivce. The tour was advertised as "10 Glasses of Champagne" which implies 3 or more house visited. We were taken to 2 and a "museum". Much time was wasted with late arrival to pick us up for the tour and "time for coffee" before our first house visit. We were picked up at 7:40am and our first tour wasn't until 11:45. Had I known the place we'd be brought for lunch would be the equivalent of a TGIFridays I would hvae had lovely sandwiches from the bakery where we had coffee. We rushed our Moet & Chandon experience in order to be on time for what turned out to be a "museum" and then were brought to a sports bar for lunch because the the only thing open for food at that hour was a bar. The whole day could have been planned so much better. The tour guide spent more time on her phone texting and dealing with the stuffed animal that she was to take photos of for Tour Up Europe than with provviding service to the patrons. I am sure she really didn't know an y better. She tried, but was ill exquipped to handle anyone not Gen Z or Millenial. When I reached out to the company I was told how unappreciative I was. I would never use Tour Up Europe again. They have no concept of customer service. And as far as me being unappreciative, well you can find my exemplary review of the other tour we took though Viator that was the absolute opposite. Marvelous attention, information and a truely wonderful experience.

Not what we expected. - There is a discrepancy between what is offered and what is actually given First of all, the pickup time was never confirmed and we were late for our first appointment. Second, we were supposed to visit Moet including 2 glasses of champagne. Instead it was Pommery with only one glass. Also, Veuve Clicquot is included, it was not! The only thing we did that is detailed in the tour description was the cathedral and Pressoria. Our tour guide was very nice but seemed to be lost half the time

Disappointed. Tour cut short due to operator late pickup - We were very much looking forward to this trip to Champagne, we did not get what we paid for. When our hotel pick-up time passed we reached out to Viator for help. They gave minimal information and after waiting outside I. The cold for 90 minutes we finally got into contact with the local operator. They had a mix-up on the booking on their end. They scrambled to get something together (which we appreciated) but we eventually got picked-up 3.5 hours late and only got to go to one Champagne house, visit the cathedral for 10 minutes and do the Champagne museum tour. Our guide and driver did their best given the situation, but we definitely did not get what we paid for and neither Viator nor the local operator offered to give a refund/discount for the large chunk of the trip we missed. We did enjoy the wine tour/tasting we were able to get in. We were extremely disappointed overall.

TOTAL RIP OFF!!!!!!! - This was a total rip off. We had no tour guide, only a driver. We visited only ONE winery, and it was not one of the wineries listed on the itinerary. We had only two glasses of champagne. Totally misrepresented. We were told they had trouble booking the wineries because it was spring break in France and everything was sold out. We booked this months in advance, so it that was the case why did they accept our reservation. The tour operator blames Viator, and Viator said there is nothing they can do. Beware of this scam excursion!!!!!!
