Visit the Champagne region for the day!

Explore the beautiful Champagne Region, located only 90 minutes outside of Paris on this small-group day trip. You'll see the town of Reims and visit its gorgeous, gothic, Cathedral where the French Kings of old were crowned. Then you'll explore the countryside around Epernay known as the capital of Champagne.

You'll walk in vineyards, meet a charming local winemaker, visit the prestigious Champagne House of Nicolas Feuillatte, pay your respects at the tomb of Dom Perignon, and taste at least 6 full glasses of different Champagnes!

Champagne is known for being the most festive, glamorous, and romantic of all wines. On this tour, you'll learn about all of the passion and hard work it takes to make Champagne and you'll come away with a better appreciation for this very unique wine.

Champagne Vineyards in the French Countryside

Reims Cathedral and the Local Winemaker

Take a small group day trip from Paris to the beautiful Champagne region of France! Meet your guide at the Place Saint-Michel (in the center of Paris) and enjoy a comfortable, 90-minute, drive out to the Champagne region. Our minibus has comfy leather seats and fresh air-conditioning so that you can enjoy the scenic drive through the French countryside.

The first stop on this tour will be the impressive, gothic, Cathedral of Reims. You'll hear the fascinating history behind the coronation traditions of the French Kings, and learn about some of the 2,000 statues on the Cathedral's facade. You'll also have free time to explore the serenity that is on the inside of this gothic masterpiece.

Then you'll be off to meet a highly regarded local vintner. All of our partners are at least 3rd generation winemakers of Champagne. The local winemaker will take you on an intimate tour of his/her property*. You'll discover all of the delicate details of making Champagne. You'll learn exactly what happens every step of the way from pressing the fresh cut grapes to corking the bottles. *Please note that on certain dates the winemaker might be too busy in the fields to meet us and in that case his/her child or an employee will meet you and share everything with you.

Champagne Tastings with explanations

Tasting Champagne and visiting Epernay

Once you understand how it is made, it will be time to let your taste buds do some learning. In a charming tasting room the vintner we'll introduce you to at least 3 different types of Champagne and pour them for you to taste. They will explain the particularities of a Blanc de Blanc and Rosé well as the differences between a Brut and a Demi-Sec, a Cuvée and a Vintage.

Then you're off to visit and eat in the beautiful town of Epernay. In the heart of the old town, you'll have a full hour of free time to explore the town and enjoy lunch. There are several great cafés, restaurants, and French bakeries available in Epernay. With suggestions from the guide we're sure you'll be able to find one that suits your budget and taste in food.

After lunch you'll visit a very prestigious house with one foot firmly planted in tradition and another in the modern world. The House of Nicolas Feuillatte is the #1 Brand of Champagne sold in France with more than 10 Million bottles being purchased and enjoyed annually. It will be quite a different experience when compared to the smaller winemaker's estate that was visited earlier in the day.

Dom Perignon and Nicolas Feuillate

In the House of Nicolas Feuillatte you'll walk among the giant oak barrels of fermenting wine and also see the state of the art machinery that helps bring their millions of bottles of Champagne to connoisseurs throughout the world. Then you'll be invited to taste 3 of their amazing Champagnes and appreciate their unique flavors.

On the drive back into Paris we'll make a special stop so that you can pay your respects to Dom Perignon, the father of Champagne. Friar Dom Perignon's grave is in a small hillside village with gorgeous views overlooking the Marne river and the vineyards around it. There your guide will explain the legend of the humble monk who perfected the Champagne making process.

By the end of this tour you will be able to share with your friends the many reasons why Champagne became the wine of romance, glamor, and celebration. You'll also appreciate all of the passion and effort that goes into producing each bottle. When the adventure is over you'll arrive back in Paris, between 6 and 6:30pm, at the Place Saint- Michel.

V - Child Policy

All reservations made for children under the age of 18 years old must be made by an adult and we must be informed at the time of booking exactly how many children are in your party and their ages. This is vital information as it allows our guide to prepare the proper child sized equipments for the bike tours and the booster seats for all day trips/excursions that use one of our vans. All reservations made for a minor under the age of 18 years old must also include the reservation for an adult who will be 100% solely responsible for the safety and well being of the child while on the tour. Every child, under the age of 12 years old, partaking in a bicycle tour will be required to wear a helmet and a reflective vest as per French Law. The adult who accompanies the child agrees to the responsibility of choosing a properly sized helmet, adjusting the helmet, and keeping the helmet on the head of the child during the whole tour. Blue Fox Travel has helmets in multiple sizes for you to choose from at no cost. Don't forget: Children who will be riding in a baby/child seat, on a tandem attachment bike, or in a booster seat in one of our vans absolutely MUST have their seat reserved beforehand. We NEED to know exactly what your child will need before they show up. Please make it clear in the “Special Requirements” section of our booking form.

VI- Child Bike Policy

Children who will be riding on their own may be subject to a very short test run before the tour starts in which they will be expected to demonstrate: that they are well suited for their bike’s size and settings, that they know how to brake properly and that they are, in general, good cyclists who can be trusted to follow their tour guide in a safe manner. We own 20” and 24” kids bikes (size of the wheel). Adult bikes are 26”. If the guide, or manager, finds that the child is not, for any reason, a good enough cyclist then the guide, or manager, has the right to refuse to let the child follow the tour on a personal bike. This means they will either be asked to ride on one of our ‘tandem attachments’ which is attached to the back of a parents bike OR asked to ride in a child seat attached to the back of a parents bike. If the child refuses the change, then the guide or manager has the right to cancel the reservation, and not allow you and your child on the bike tour. Refunds will not be issued if your reservation is cancelled because of your child not being able to cycle and their refusal to ride attached to you. Baby seats are for kids that are between the ages of 1 and 3 years old (max weight 22 kg (48 lbs)). We also have some cool Burley™ tandem attachment bikes that are suitable for little kids who are too big for the baby seat but too small to cycle on their own (max weight 38 kg (85 lbs) - max height 137 cm (4 ft 6 in)).

VII - Damages to Blue Fox Travel Property

If you or anyone in your party damages a vehicle, a Blue Bike™, a vehicle, a child's bike, a helmet, a baby/child seat, a tandem attachment bike, any bike attachments, or a booster seat in such a way that it becomes badly disfigured, broken, or unusable, then BFT reserves the right to claim a fee of up to the cost of repair of the damaged bike/vehicle or object.

Review of blue fox travel tours in paris, by katie beltramo.

Paris! The City of Lights, one of the top tourist destinations in the world! It's an amazing destination for families, but it can be overwhelming, too. That's why our family so appreciated tours with Blue Fox Travel . We loved the personal care put into our activities, and we also loved that it's a true family affair, a company founded by a pair of French brothers and the American woman who married into the family. We experienced two different tours with Blue Fox Travel: the Family Bike Tour: The Amazing Race and the Versailles Bike Tour .

The Amazing Race

blue fox travel services

For our tour, we  biked around tree-lined lanes throughout the complex, so the biking was easy and fun. We'd stop, hear an introduction from our guide, then leave our bikes parked while we entered the various buildings and explored them on our own. Hava would send us in with instructions to meet back at the bikes in, say, half an hour. If you are a history geek like I am, the visit timing could sometimes feel a bit tight, but the truth is, there's tons to see at Versailles, so I don't think we would have made it through everything without Hava keeping us on schedule..

Who Will Love These Tours?

blue fox travel services

Are There Other Tours That You Would Recommend?

We only went on two tours with Blue Fox Travel , but based on our experiences and other reviews , we'd happily go anywhere they're willing to take us! Blue Fox offers bike tours, skip-the-line tours to major attractions, and day trips outside of Paris. If you're interested in going anywhere outside of Paris (Versailles, Monet's Gardens at Giverny, Mont St. Michel, or other destinations), a tour is a wonderful and stress-free way to travel there. Among the Skip-the-Line options, I'd be most excited about the Sainte Chapelle & Towers of Notre Dame option, both because waiting to go up the towers was our single longest wait in Paris (90 minutes, which was more than the Eiffel Tower, the Catacombs, or the Louvre) and because guides can offer so much information in "reading" stained glass. Finally, there's a super-cool, brand-new option that hasn't even been listed on the website yet: an Adventure in the Louvre tour. This new private family tour takes their popular scavenger hunt method into the museum to help engage everyone in a treasure hunt that incorporates stops at all the most famous art around the Louvre.

Tips to Make the Most of Your Tour

blue fox travel services

  • Bring some money. For both of these tours, your guides will point you in the direction of excellent food but won't buy it for you , so don't come empty-handed.
  • Dress for the weather. Tours are rain or shine, and riding a bike can feel chillier than just walking around.
  • If you have a Paris Museum Pass , be sure to sign up for the reduced rate for the Versailles tour. If you sign up at the full rate and end up getting the pass, they'll refund the difference upon request.
  • The best market days in Versailles are Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. We visited on a Tuesday and absolutely loved the market.
  • Musical Fountains Shows take place in the Versailles gardens on Tuesdays and Fridays from April to October. On the pro side, these days include music and fountains. On the con side, these days require a separate admission for the garden, and it's likely why it was so very crowded inside the chateau on the day that we went.
  • Get a photo of your family with your tour guide! If you forget, you'll regret it later.
  • Tips are optional, but it's nice to have money available if you'd like to tip.

International travel can feel overwhelming, with the different language, different money, and finding your way around new places, as well as exhausting, with so much walking, so many choices, and so many things to do. Tours can eliminate these stressors and let you focus on having fun and learning together. With Blue Fox Travel, we were in good hands, and their tours gave us some of our very favorite experiences in and around Paris.

For more information on tours available as well as up-to-date prices, visit Blue Fox Travel's website . For more information about visiting Versailles, see the Versailles website .

Great bike tours Pauline was our tour guide very sweet and funny. We had an amazing time very informative as well. We did the morning one and the temperature was a bit cold 47 degrees when we started and as the day got warmer it became very nice. The bikes each have a poncho in case it rains and a ring bell . You have a lunch break go for the crepes they were amazing!

It was pure serendipity that I stumbled upon Blue Bike Tours on my trip in Paris, and it was an amazing experience! If you want to see the insider's Paris along with all of the popular landmarks and learn the history of the city to boot, this is THE BEST bike tour you can take on your visit. It's a leisurely jaunt around the city, on very comfortable (and really beautiful) blue cruiser bikes. The tour guides and staff are incredibly warm, accommodating, trustworthy, and safety oriented. They know the city well, and will not hesitate to offer tidbits of advice and answer questions about Paris with in-depth knowledge and humor. Tell your friends, and try them out. These guys rock! ---- Il était pur hasard que je suis tombé sur Bike Tours bleus sur mon voyage à Paris, et c'était une expérience incroyable! Si vous voulez voir Paris de l'initié avec l'ensemble des points de repère populaires et d'apprendre l'histoire de la ville à la botte, c'est le meilleur tour de vélo, vous pouvez prendre sur votre visite. C'est une escapade tranquille autour de la ville, sur la très confortable (et vraiment belle) vélos cruiser bleu. Les guides et le personnel sont incroyablement chaleureux, accueillant, digne de confiance, et de la sécurité axée sur. Ils connaissent bien la ville, et n'hésitera pas à offrir des bribes de questions de conseils et répondra sur Paris avec une connaissance approfondie et d'humour. Dites à vos amis et essayez de la tournée. Ils sont merveilleux!

I took the Paris by night bike + boat tour. It was better than I could've hoped. Something that really stood out to me was how willing our tour guide was to talk to the kids on the tour and entertain them being goofy. It was so great and fun and I can't recommend it enough.

Bottom Line: An overview of the city in a 4 hour bike tour with young guides. Groups vary in athletic ability and age and the pace is fairly brisk so you cannot stop and take loads of pictures. This is a great value for the money and worth doing on the front end of a trip since the guides give great tips and recommendations for how to spend your time in the city. What You See: The bike tour I took was the Best of Paris tour - a scenic tour through different neighborhoods of Paris. Riders see major tourist attractions such as the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Cathedral of Notre Dame and the banks and bridges of the Seine. Our guide, Guillaume (William in English), stopped and gave a brief history and description of what we were seeing. He was very friendly and attentive and made the trip enjoyable and fun. You only stop at each site for a few minutes so it's worth going back to things like the Eiffel Tower if you want to ride up to the viewing deck. Group Dynamics: Our group was about 10 people, which is around the perfect size. Larger groups move more slowly and it's harder to hear the guide. Smaller groups mean there are less interesting people to chat with who are also visiting the city. In my group, people were all different ages and sizes: there was a couple from Australia, a group of middle-aged women from Boston, and another younger couple. You don't have to be great shape to do the bike ride but you should be able to ride one for a few hours at a medium speed. Pace: The pace of the tour is fairly brisk so if you're looking for a lot of downtime to take a lot of pictures, this probably not the tour for it. It's meant to give you a glimpse of major sites in Paris and offer a fun way to see the city that is more personal than a car tour but faster than a walking tour. There is a 30-minute break at Rue de Cler for a coffee and pastry. Price/Value for Money: This was a great value for the money and I highly recommend this over a car tour. Riding through the city gives you the ability to see the city from a Parisian's point of view and interact with the city in a much more intimate way. Plus, it's a lot cheaper and you get a workout in at the same time. Keep in mind that this is meant to give you an overview of the city so not a lot of time is spent at each site. But it does give you a good idea for you may want to spend the rest of your time in Paris since the guides give great tips.

We are not big on organized tours, but we also can't see spending hours on end waiting in line to get into tourist destinations like the Eiffel Tower or the Paris Catacombs. The solution is a skip the line ticket offered by Blue Bike Tours. Rather than wait in line for five hours - yes, I said FIVE HOURS - in Paris heat to enter the Catacombs, we got immediate access with our tour guide, whose interesting commentary as we walked through the caverns was icing on the cake. We also used Blue Bike to bypass the wait to access the Eiffel Tower. It was well worth it. Sure, it costs a bit more, but you've already spent a substantial amount traveling to Paris, so why waste you precious time in queues.

We were going to visit the Normandy D-Day Beaches on our own when we thought to look into tours from Paris. The Blue Fox Travel tour appeared to be what we were after and it was. The day is long, but well worth it. We were driven to Normandy in a clean modern van as part of a group of seven people. The young women who was our driver/guide made the trip. Her knowledge was extensive and her enthusiasm was contagious. She made the trip fun and effortless. We made several stops for bathroom breaks and one for lunch at a moderately priced place where she had reserved a table for us. I would definitely consider Blue Fox for any of my future tour plans.

We had a great time in Paris thanks to this bike tour! Our guide, Jean-Phillip was awesome! He was funny, extremely informative, and always made sure that everyone in the group was taken care of. I truly felt like I got a great snapshot of main great landmarks of Paris with this tour. When else can you ride your bike through the outdoor courtyard of the Louvre? If you are on a time crunch and need something to feel like you experienced the great wonders of Paris, take this tour. It will make you feel accomplished in a short amount of time! With only 4 days in the city, we definitely needed it!

Blue Bike tours was so understanding when we had to cancel last minute for a medical emergency. They refunded both our tickets in full and were extremely polite and empathetic throughout the whole process. This tour came highly recommended by friends and we were upset we couldn't make it.

Most memorable experience in France!!!!! I cannot believe how amazing this tour was! Yes it was a really long tour, and expensive, but you won't regret it. We started the day out in the Gare Saint-Lazare, in front of platform #1 right in front of the map. The guide was wearing a blue bike hoodie, which was the same color as the bikes in the pictures. He gave us the tickets and we loaded the train when it came. I believe our tour guide was Pierre and he was fantastic and funny as well. He let us go shopping in the market place and then we loaded our bikes and explored the gardens and some of the buildings of Versailles. In my wildest dreams I never knew I would explore the Summer home of Marie Antoinette or that she had built a farm to mimic more of a simple life. I don't want to give too much away about the trip except that it ends at the French Castle, where your guide leaves you and you're free to wander around. The only thing I would have added is one more bathroom break. We had one in the morning and one later on, however I was very uncomfortable at the end and my Husband even had to leave the group early to go find a bathroom.

An exciting time in Versailles, Blue Bike Tour

We had heard about Blue Bike Tours from a friend and thought it would be a great way to orient in Paris on our first full day in the city. We were not wrong! We did the Paris Hidden Gems tour. Jean Philippe was our kind, fun and knowledgeable guide--engaging us about French culture, history and politics, and giving us all kinds of good insider info so we could have a great rest of the week. We were the only people on the tour that day (it being low season) and rather than rush us through so he could have the rest of the day off, he actually took his time with us, and even took us on an extra stop to Marie Curie's house. The bike riding itself was easygoing and fun--along the Seine, up some easy hills. It was the perfect pace at which to see the city--fast enough to see a lot of things in a short time without getting footsore, slow enough to take it in. I usually hate tours and being boxed into someone else's timetable and herded around, but I would do this again and heartily recommend it to anyone!

What Our Clients Say About Us

We are Passionate about what we do... but don’t take our word for it - read our client testimonials.

“I encountered this agency by googling information about my trip to the Zanzibar and they did not disappoint. I was immensely impressed by their excellent customer service. All my enquiries were replied promply. I was not charged prior to the tour. I booked a Stone Town Walking Tour combined with Spice Tour and Prison Island but then on the spot I changed my mind and requested a Jozani Forest Tour instead. Wadi handled this with extreme patience and flexibility. The tour itself was amazing and the tour guide was very friendly, kind and accommodating as to my snorkelling and photo preferences. Unfortunately we could not do the snorkeling trip to Mnemba Atoll because of the rough weather. The guides advised us against it. So it was a bit disappointing but a safer option. I would use and recommend the services of Blue - Green Zanzibar Tours and Safari again, hopefully in the near future! For a group of 8. Thank you for The Wonderful Tours.”

“I want to thank Wadi, Mohamed, Ali and Ibrahim for an excellent experience in Zanzibar. From having to reschedule the tour to a later date to including my requests during the tour, I had very enjoyable tour with Blue - Green Zanzibar Tours and Safari in Zanzibar. I met with Mohamed at Zanzibar Airport and the tour kickstarted thereafter. Ibrahim joined us in Nungwi Village Tour, had a coffee and time flew by till the Friday prayer time. Foregoing lunch, I took a solo walk down the Village till the tour continued after prayer. Ali is very passionate about the initiative and very knowledgeable about the corals & other fauna of the Zanzibar ecosystem. We had a traditional Zanzibar tea break in the evening before heading back to my Hotel. The entire experience was very nice and I highly recommend touring Nungwi with Blue - Green Zanzibar Tours Team. Keep up the good work, guys! This tour ranks very high among my long and varied world travels.”

“Best time ever in Zanzibar. We did the 5D/4N package. I had a lot of questions before booking the package & they were so quick to respond. Our tour guide arrived on time and was nice, reliable and spoke good English. Overall, great experience. We would have been lost without him! He is a star who made our holidays very memorable. He was very helpful to share information and help us make decisions as it was our first visit to Zanzibar. He is actually a all rounder. From taking Photos to driving safely to sharing and giving information about all the places. He is the best person and the cost for day trip is very reasonable. I compared all the other companies and they are the best. My son wanted to fly his drone & Ibrahim went out of his way to make sure my son had many opportunities to do that. Our Zanzibar vacation was definitely made more enjoyable because of him.”

Joey Lawrence

“Though it is a late review, it is the one I just had to write as the experience was awesome. I visited sand bank then swimming with dolphins with Wadi from Blue - Green Zanzibar Tours and Safari. Zanzibar in itself is a beauty, sand banks are the most amazing thing one should definitely see while in Zanzibar. I was travelling alone with my daughter and Wadi made it a wonderful memorable trip for the little one. He arranges all the activities and is very punctual and apt in replying to all your queries. During these pandemic times they are taking utmost care with very less group size for everyone/s safety which I loved. We very much appreciated the restaurant recommendations we received for dinner near our hotel and for lunch, where we had an ocean view. “Thank You Wadi” for welcoming us so well . We will definitely will contact you guys for our next trip to Zanzibar.”

“A must visit place, has so much to do. Enjoy the serene beaches, which are definitely less crowded. Water sports activities are enjoyable, and varied. Visit to Prison Island, Stone Town City and Maruhubi Ruins, are a must see. Our private driver is Mr. Chum. He was very nice, reliable and patient, with really good knowledge on Zanzibar. In additions, he knew the roads so well so he could avoid the traffic jam. He actually accompanied us every place we visited, explained us all about the place and everything. Always went beyond the call of duty. It's a very well managed agency Shopping for local farms, particularly in Darajani Market, is highly recommended. Comparatively a less heavy on pocket. Food.... mostly, sea food, can be selected live, to be prepared live, to your taste. Would recommend this tour company to every one 100%, aircon was great in car. the service and quality was superb for us! I loved this tour from beginning to end.”

As the beginner bicyclists battle heatstroke, speed wobbles, and the greatest enemy of all cyclists — a chafed crotch — they must learn to stop fighting and ride together as a peloton. The bicycle serves not just as a means of transportation, but as a test; a way for each of these young men to see what they are truly capable of, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

As caring social worker Haddie (Cynthia Kaye McWilliams) attempts to be the voice of reason, Coach Townsend pushes the boys to their limit, and cracks begin to form. Ultimately, Greg’s words will ring hollow unless he can apply his coaching advice to his own life and make amends with his dying father. In the sweltering desert, the boys reach a crossroads and must decide whether to continue down the path of least resistance, or take agency of their futures and pave the way to forgiveness.

Written by Hanna and Christian Sander, the film also stars Leslie David Baker, Sean Astin, Jahking Guillory, Jackson Kelly, Damien Diaz and Zachary T. Robbins. Christian Sander produced for Pensé Productions, with Scott Sander serving as executive producer.

Review of blue fox travel tours in paris, by katie beltramo.

Paris! The City of Lights, one of the top tourist destinations in the world! It's an amazing destination for families, but it can be overwhelming, too. That's why our family so appreciated tours with Blue Fox Travel . We loved the personal care put into our activities, and we also loved that it's a true family affair, a company founded by a pair of French brothers and the American woman who married into the family. We experienced two different tours with Blue Fox Travel: the Family Bike Tour: The Amazing Race and the Versailles Bike Tour .

The Amazing Race

blue fox travel services

For our tour, we  biked around tree-lined lanes throughout the complex, so the biking was easy and fun. We'd stop, hear an introduction from our guide, then leave our bikes parked while we entered the various buildings and explored them on our own. Hava would send us in with instructions to meet back at the bikes in, say, half an hour. If you are a history geek like I am, the visit timing could sometimes feel a bit tight, but the truth is, there's tons to see at Versailles, so I don't think we would have made it through everything without Hava keeping us on schedule..

We only went on two tours with Blue Fox Travel , but based on our experiences and other reviews , we'd happily go anywhere they're willing to take us! Blue Fox offers bike tours, skip-the-line tours to major attractions, and day trips outside of Paris. If you're interested in going anywhere outside of Paris (Versailles, Monet's Gardens at Giverny, Mont St. Michel, or other destinations), a tour is a wonderful and stress-free way to travel there. Among the Skip-the-Line options, I'd be most excited about the Sainte Chapelle & Towers of Notre Dame option, both because waiting to go up the towers was our single longest wait in Paris (90 minutes, which was more than the Eiffel Tower, the Catacombs, or the Louvre) and because guides can offer so much information in "reading" stained glass. Finally, there's a super-cool, brand-new option that hasn't even been listed on the website yet: an Adventure in the Louvre tour. This new private family tour takes their popular scavenger hunt method into the museum to help engage everyone in a treasure hunt that incorporates stops at all the most famous art around the Louvre.

Tips to Make the Most of Your Tour

blue fox travel services

  • Bring some money. For both of these tours, your guides will point you in the direction of excellent food but won't buy it for you , so don't come empty-handed.
  • Dress for the weather. Tours are rain or shine, and riding a bike can feel chillier than just walking around.
  • If you have a Paris Museum Pass , be sure to sign up for the reduced rate for the Versailles tour. If you sign up at the full rate and end up getting the pass, they'll refund the difference upon request.
  • The best market days in Versailles are Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. We visited on a Tuesday and absolutely loved the market.
  • Musical Fountains Shows take place in the Versailles gardens on Tuesdays and Fridays from April to October. On the pro side, these days include music and fountains. On the con side, these days require a separate admission for the garden, and it's likely why it was so very crowded inside the chateau on the day that we went.
  • Get a photo of your family with your tour guide! If you forget, you'll regret it later.
  • Tips are optional, but it's nice to have money available if you'd like to tip.

International travel can feel overwhelming, with the different language, different money, and finding your way around new places, as well as exhausting, with so much walking, so many choices, and so many things to do. Tours can eliminate these stressors and let you focus on having fun and learning together. With Blue Fox Travel, we were in good hands, and their tours gave us some of our very favorite experiences in and around Paris.
