ACTIVITIES:


In The Footsteps Of Madame Clicquot

Discover the world renowned Champagne House of Veuve Clicquot, the history behind the family run estate and learn the art of champagne tasting with the experts. Follow in the footsteps of Madame Clicquot as you enjoy a walking tour of the maison and champagne cellars and learn the process from vineyard to bottle of the prestigious brand. You will also have the opportunity to experience an aromatic test of Maison Clicquot’s best champagnes, its famous “Brut Carte Jaune” and its Prestige cuvee “La Grande Dame”.



The Scenic Champagne Route

The scenic Champagne route winds its way through vast swathes of vineyards, passing small villages and local champagne houses along the way.
Starting in Reims your driver guide will take you out of the city and onto one of the most scenic driving routes of the region, known as the ‘Champagne route’. The landscape soon opens up across the rolling verdant hillside as you pass through the neatly lined rows of vines – look out for the headstones along the vineyards, indicating the names of the famous Champagne producers. This gentle drive takes us into some of the smaller villages and wine estates where you have the chance to meet the producers and sample their blends. The route leads you to Epernay, the wine capital of Champagne, where you can contrast your experience at the smaller wine estates with a visit to one of the largest producers of the region – Mercier. This house is rich with history and will give you an insight to the rise of the champagne industry, while a little train takes you through part of the 18 km long cellars to see them in action. A very welcome tasting will be waiting for you at the end of the visit discovery.



Safaris and Wildlife

Certain Relais & Châteaux properties are located at the heart of untouched environments where nature runs wild. From an African safari tour through the South African bush to tracking the “Big Five,” or viewing tigers in Rajasthan, there are so many opportunities to admire and contemplate animals in their natural habitat. There is a great range of activities and territories to explore for those who know how to appreciate their diversity and beauty. For safari holidays or for a real adventure travel, you will be able to live the wildlife experience in a wilderness resort. Certain Relais & Châteaux properties are located in remote areas, far from the bustle of modern life, where wide open spaces become a source of meditation and contemplation. Get away from it all on a trip to Canada, India or South Africa, where you can roam seemingly endless spaces, and marvel at the grace of otherworldly landscapes.



Summer in the Mountains

Majestic and fascinating, the mountain basks beneath the summer sun and reveals its distinctive face: its enormity and tranquillity come to the fore. The mountains, denuded of their coats of snow, become ideal stadia for numerous sports, be they land-or-water-based, or airborne. Mountain-biking, hikes through a magical ecosystem (the home of ibex, chamois and marmots), paragliding, rafting or canyoning for thrill-seekers; these are among the wide range of activities that take place in summer on the mountains. And, at the end of the day, reward yourself with a lakeside picnic, and breathe in the freshest of air! Summers spent in the mountains are a unique experience in which peace reigns supreme, and where beguiling panoramas of mountain ranges stretch out forever.


Into the wild

Sometimes we need alone time, where solitude does us a world of good. Sometimes we also need a bit of calm, where we can recharge our batteries in nature or where diving into the vastness of the world brings us back to ourselves and what we are. Certain Relais & Châteaux properties are located away from it all by choice, to better offer you the richness of the land, giving you time to be at one with nature and enjoy adventure holidays in a wilderness resort. From the steep coasts of British Columbia to the vast lands of Patagonia, the Scottish Highlands, or the Himalayas, Relais & Châteaux properties are an ideal private refuge for appreciating and delighting in the ocean, mountains or endless countryside, for experiencing adventure and luxury holidays at once.
