Hi All,
Following some other adventures, my spouse and I will be training from Dijon, to Reims for three nights/two days (arrive on a Thursday and depart on Sunday) - then train to depart from CDG. This is too short, of course, but we had a couple of days and she really wanted to visit on our way out of France - we'll likely return for more time, but this was too favorable a circumstance to not drop in for a couple of days.
So, we were considering a day tour in Reims, and a day tour in Epernay? Is this reasonable? Our strategy in cases like this - ie, without enough time, has been to offset the lack of time with money - for joining tours or even sometimes paying for a private tour (we kinda like the small group tours, though).
Could the assembled offer their thoughts on how we might best optimize our time - and, see both Reims and Epernay - especially with specific recommendations on which tours/tour company? We could also stay in Epernay and visit Reims, but the train schedules to/from Epernay/CDG don't look as efficient.
We have a reservation at a small place in Reims called Loft Royal de Promenade (near park across from the gare), but always would consider another B&B, hotel, etc. Recommendations?
Thank you, All!
