Hi all,
I know I've read there is a train from Paris to Epernay and I've even seen the rail map showing this but every time I search for one I get no results. Is there really a train that one can take from Paris to Epernay? And if anyone knows does a Eurail pass cover this?

Thanks for any and all help!

Is it possible to have a minibus pick 7 adults plus luggage up, from Charles De Gaulle Airport to Reims, with the return journey five days later. Any contact details for the above would be helpful.

Hi all,

I was wondering if reservations are needed for July in those towns. Or is it easy to roll up and maybe find a B&B within walking distance of the train station?

Does anyone know of a couple of champagne houses to visit that are open late afternoon Friday or on Saturdays in July?

Thanks

My husband and I will be visiting Reims later this year. We will be traveling by train and don't plan to have a car. We would like to visit some of the champagne houses for tastings, but from what we can tell, many of the champagne houses are 2-3 kilometers from the city center (for example, Pommery, Veuve-Clicquot, and Ruinart). Are there any organized tours in Reims that visit several of the houses, or perhaps visitng both Reims and Epernay, providing the transportation to them? (I know there are day tours from Paris; ideally, we'd like to find something similar in Reims.) If not, is it practical to visit them by taxi?

How much is a bottle of Moet NV or Verve Cliquot NV from a supermarket or outlet?

I will be in Champagne for a few days and want to visit a some Champagne houses. Does anyone have any must visit suggestions. I would love to visit at least one major Champagne house as well as some less touristy places.

Thanks,

E.

PS - Do most of these places have the ability to ship the champagne that you buy back to the US? If not, how eles would one get it home, given the new security measures?

We need to get from Reims to Amsterdam on Monday 2 October 2006.
We are 2 couples from Australia and are spending the weekend in Reims. On Monday we want to get to Amsterdam.
Is there any direct bus routes?
Would someone like to drive us?
We know we can catch a train back to Paris and then another to Amsterdam but that takes 7 hours and cost 110 euros each.
Is there a cheaper or faster or more direct route?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello!
I am planning to do a small bike tour in France beginning in Troyes. Does anyone know if there is a bicycle rental shop in Troyes?
Thanks!

I will be travelling to Reims in two weeks and would like to make a daytrip to Troyes. I understand that one must travel back through Paris to get to Troyes by train, but is there a bus service between the two towns? I have been unable to find anything online about timetables and the like. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

We are travelling from Luxembourg on 16/04 to Troyes and then back the 17th. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a scenic route - beautiful scenery, private champagne caves, quaint place to stop for lunch? We will be staying in Troyes itself, but understand there are no Champagne caves there.

Thanks!!!!

Hi

I'll be in Reims the first week in May, and I want to rent a car. I'm having trouble finding an agency. Is there one in town or do I have to go to the airport? And how far is the airport from the town center?
