ABOUT AY CHAMPAGNE EXPERIENCE
Aÿ Champagne Experience
Isabelle, the founder of Aÿ Champagne Experience and her team of passionate guides specialized in wine tourism promise you an unforgettable experience discovering the most famous historic villages and vineyards of Champagne.
“I have always been passionate about art, tourism and heritage. Alongside my studies in law and art history, I was already doing guided tours at the “Old Jesuit College” in Reims.
I then studied history and management of French and European cultural heritage in Paris at the Sorbonne University and then worked as a training manager in a private parisian school where I supervised professional training in the enhancement of heritage and cultural tourism management.
I have been back in the family home in the heart of Champagne in Aÿ since 2008. In 2018, I established Aÿ Champagne Experience to welcome you as friends and show you all the beauty of my region with my team of specialized wine tourism guides/drivers.
I also obtained level 2 of the WSET certificate which is the reference training in the world of wines and spirits.
Champagne has no secrets for us and will no longer have any for you after your Aÿ Champagne Experience.
We hold a transport Capacity issued by the French State necessary for the exercise of our wine tourism activity.
We also have special authorization issued by Hautvillers Tourist Office allowing us to visit the Church where the grave of the famous Dom Pérignon is located.”
