    Eastern France brings together some of the country’s most distinctive landscapes, wine traditions and cultural destinations. From the Champagne cellars of Reims and Épernay to the colourful villages of Alsace and the legendary vineyards of Burgundy, this part of France offers a remarkable journey through wine, food, history and heritage.

  • Champagne: Cellars, Vineyards and Historic Cities

    Champagne is the birthplace of the world’s most famous sparkling wine. Discover the historic cities of Reims and Épernay, explore underground chalk cellars and travel through vineyard landscapes where generations of producers have developed the methods that define Champagne today.

    Visit renowned Champagne houses and family-run estates, taste a range of Champagne styles and learn about the production process, from vineyard and pressing to blending, ageing and disgorgement. Reims also offers remarkable cultural heritage, including its Gothic cathedral, while Épernay is known for the Avenue de Champagne and its prestigious cellars.

    Champagne is an ideal first stop on an eastern France journey, combining wine discovery, elegant towns, historic architecture and refined gastronomy.

  • Alsace: Wine Route Villages and French-German Heritage

    Alsace is one of France’s most distinctive destinations, shaped by both French and Germanic influences. Travel between Strasbourg and Colmar to discover colourful half-timbered villages, vineyard-covered hillsides, local food traditions and the scenic Alsace Wine Route.

    Explore wine villages such as Riquewihr, Eguisheim, Kaysersberg and Ribeauvillé, meet local winemakers and taste signature varieties including Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Crémant d’Alsace. Strasbourg and Colmar add a cultural dimension to the region, with historic centres, museums, canals and outstanding architecture.

    Alsace is especially rewarding for travellers who enjoy wine, food, traditional villages, Christmas markets, cross-border culture and scenic countryside.

  • Burgundy: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Timeless Heritage

    Burgundy is one of the world’s most prestigious wine regions, known for exceptional Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and a vineyard landscape shaped by centuries of craftsmanship. Explore the historic cities of Dijon and Beaune, travel the Route des Grands Crus and discover the renowned vineyards of the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune.

    Visit carefully selected wineries, taste wines from famous appellations and learn about Burgundy’s Climats: the precisely defined vineyard parcels that create remarkable diversity from one village and slope to the next. Pair your wine discovery with Burgundy’s celebrated food culture, including traditional dishes, artisan cheeses and local market experiences.

    Beyond the vineyards, Burgundy offers medieval towns, Romanesque churches, historic abbeys and beautiful countryside, making it ideal for a multi-day journey through wine and culture.
