An extraordinary outing!

A private tour organized to introduce the region to our colleagues from foreign subsidiaries, a great experience! Despite the heatwave, we were able to enjoy the walk, the stories of Marie Antoinette, and the sabering of well-chilled champagne :) A very good outing idea! And the double-decker bus really has an unmatched look!

A festive and unexpected experience

An experience as festive as it is unexpected! What a nice surprise that this discovery on board the Imperial – Marie Antoinette! Wine tourism takes on a joyful and relaxed dimension, under the sign of sunshine, conviviality and good humor. The concept is original, the welcome warm, and the walk allows you to discover Champagne differently: relaxed, festive, accessible, while remaining qualitative. We let ourselves be carried away, we enjoy the moment, we share — and we leave with real memories. An ideal experience for those who wish to combine discovery of the territory, pleasure and festive spirit. I recommend without hesitation!

The Imperial Marie-Antoinette, an experience rich in emotions

Our afternoon aboard the Imperial Marie Antoinette during our friend's bachelorette party was simply unforgettable, thanks to our exceptional hosts, Marie-Antoinette and Robby. Their hospitality and attention to detail made this experience truly special. We had the chance to discover the magnificent town of Epernay and its vineyards, to practice champagne sabring, and to enjoy moments of dancing, singing and champagne tasting on board. It was a perfect afternoon, filled with laughter and precious memories, and we are endlessly grateful to Marie Antoinette and Robby for making it possible. Thank you to them for this memorable experience 🫶 Les Cambrésiennes 🫶

Un grand MERCI pour cet avis qui nous touche ! Et également à toute l'équipe des Cambrésiennes qui a su mettre l'ambiance ! Une jolie démonstration de danse à Hautvillers, et un passage qui a enflammé l'Avenue de Champagne A une autre fois, pour une autre occasion Marie Antoinette
