We visited Reims, the largest city in Champagne, on a daytrip from Paris although many people visit the Champagne area and spend several days there sampling the wares from the many different champagne houses/cellars that you can visit. Another highlight is the magnificent Notre Dame cathedral where the kings of France were crowned.
I don't think we visited Reims at the best time of year, the town was rather quiet during the period between Christmas and New Year's, a lot of businesses seemed to be closed and there were not a lot of tourists wandering about.
- Pros:Champagne!
- Cons:December is off season
- In a nutshell:An easy day trip from Paris

Another lovely little paghe about your adventures in France. I must admit that I haven't visited many cities in France yet.
I ditto what Willy Wonka said. What a beautiful place and the champagne is a bous! Nice page Kristi!
I'm also considering a day tour to Reims from Paris, so your tips were really helpful. Thank you.
holy schmoly, this is the place i need to visit! champagne abounds! and not just cheap champers either, but the top notch stuff! wonky needs to get here some day! :)
Those are impressive looking buildings you toured in Reims! Yes, December is the 'off-season' for tourism in Europe, but I've quite enjoyed our last two winter trips to England. If only I could swing France into the mix one of these times!
I spent one night in Reims after a visit to Moet & Chandon. Mmmm....champagne!
What a lovely Reims page Kristi. Especially enjoyed St. Remi's Basilica and Notre Dame with its amazing brilliant blue "Marc Chagall" stained glass window.
Well well well!! Hehehe... seems I am following your footsteps! I had no idea you had been to Reims. It will be the last stop on our EU Roadtrip that starts next week!!! Champagne... here I COME!!! Hic..!
I hope to get to Reims soon and will sip the bubbly and admire Our Lady. Thanks for the tips.
Interesting page about Reims. I might visit soon and the tip about the website and the download of the guide was most helpful. Thanks!
