Great experience!

Loved the tour! We enjoyed tasting different Champagnes and learned so many cool and fun facts about each bottle from the sommelier, who was super friendly. We didn't feel crowded, and the views from the boat were fantastic - so much better than walking on the streets. Highly recommended!
