No visit to Paris would be complete without a day trip to Reims – in fact exploring this world-famous Champagne center as well as all the historic UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the city could well be the highlight of your trip to France. The Champagne Tourist Route winds through miles of noble vineyards – you can go it alone or join a guided tour and leave the driving to someone else. Inside the city there are also several guided or self-guided tours that will show you the most important buildings, such as the 13th-century Notre Dame Cathedral, the Romanesque-Gothic Saint-Remi Basilica and Museum, and the Palace of Tau. For a breath of fresh air, you can go walking or cycling in the Reims Mountain National Park just outside the city.
