About Reims
Any Francophile knows Reims is the top day trip from Paris. This “Coronation City” has been the traditional site for French coronations for centuries. Nestled in champagne country, it is also a popular destination for amateur and professional wine sommeliers alike. Your trip from Paris to Reims is sure to be a highlight of your vacation to France.
### Reims through the centuries
The history of Reims dates back to Roman times when it was known as Durocortorum. You’ll find bits of Roman ruins and even a large Roman arch as you wander the city today. It flourished as a major city in medieval France, serving as the coronation site for French kings from Clovis I in 496 to Charles X in 1825. The city played a pivotal role in shaping French history, witnessing significant events such as the Treaty of Reims in 1429, which marked the end of the Hundred Years' War.
Today, Reims is a UNESCO World Heritage site, celebrated for its stunning Gothic architecture, including the magnificent Notre-Dame de Reims Cathedral. Also known as the "Cathedral of Our Lady of Reims," people come from all over the world to see the traditional site of French royal coronations.
### Cheers to Champagne
Reims is also famous for its Champagne production. The region surrounding Reims is home to some of the world's most prestigious Champagne houses, including Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, and Taittinger.
Visitors to Reims can explore the Champagne vineyards, tour historic cellars, and indulge in tastings of this renowned sparkling wine. With Daytrip’s fleet of drivers and vehicles at your disposal, you’ll be able to enjoy all the wine tastings without worrying about having to drive home.
### Why we keep going back to Reims

From Paris to Reims: Travel tips
A little planning goes a long way. Make your drive from Paris to Reims the best it can be with these travel tips!
Keep your phone fully charged
Our phones are such an important tool. They are often also used as our camera, navigation device, and also have all the important emails full of reservations. Keep your phone fully charged while out and about by bringing a battery pack and charging cable. For added battery savings, turn off mobile data and Bluetooth when you don’t need them.
### See more than just Reims
Reims is a great day trip destination from Paris, but there are plenty of sights along the way as well that are not too far from the main highways. With a private driver, customizing your schedule to fit your interests is much easier than taking the train or bus.
For military history buffs, stop by the Caverne du Dragon or the Chateau-Thierry Monument. Both these sites are important to commemorate soldiers’ contributions during World War I.
### Dress comfortably
The last thing you need is a blister or fall to ruin the day! Reims is a small, compact town, but you will still be doing a lot of walking. Wear comfortable shoes and dress for the weather, since you will be far from home for the whole day.
If you are heading to the Champagne wine cellar tours, sturdy shoes that can withstand damp floors, steep stairs, and lots of walking are crucial to your comfort. Bring a sweater (even in the summer) if you want to stay warm while down in the chilly cellars.
### Beat the crowds with a little pre-planning
If you are visiting Reims in the summer, book as many of your tours ahead of time as you can. This is the most popular time of year to visit, so you may be competing with many other people for that wine-tasting or art museum entrance.
An early departure from Paris will also help shorten your wait time at popular sights. Leave yourself plenty of time in between activities to account for any delays, and remember to have fun!

### Notre Dame de Reims Cathedral Complex
The Notre Dame de Reims Cathedral is the traditional site of French royal coronations, and you will see why. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a prime example of high Gothic architecture. This spot has been used as a cathedral since the 5th century, but the current structure is from the 14th century. During World War I, the cathedral experienced some damage, and the windows were replaced with excellent replicas.
The complex also includes the Palace of Tau and, a bit further away, the Abbey of Saint-Rémi of Reims.
### Palais du Tau (Palace of Tau)
The Palace of Tau was the traditional residence of French royalty before their coronations. It is adjacent to the Notre Dame de Reims Cathedral. Since 1972, its museum has hosted artifacts from previous coronations, such as tapestries, jewels, and nearly 1,000-year-old Catholic relics.
### Have lunch on the main square
Place Drouet d'Erlon is the main square, lined with shops, restaurants, and bars, making it the perfect spot to relax and have lunch in between tours. Pick up some wine and cheese as a souvenir too!
### Saint-Remi Basilica and the Abbey of Saint-Remi of Reims
The basilica and abbey are about a 30-minute walk south of the town center. They include relics from Saint Remi, the patron saint of Reims. The basilica and abbey are built in the same Gothic style as the rest of the Cathedral complex.
### Take a tour of the Champagne houses and cellars
Discover the secrets of Champagne production by visiting renowned Champagne houses such as Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, and Taittinger. Take guided tours of their cellars to learn about the winemaking process. Storing wine underground is an ancient practice that helps keep it at a constant temperature throughout the year. The best part? Definitely the Champagne tastings!
### Musée des Beaux-Arts de Reims (The Museum of Fine Arts)
Visit the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Reims, housed in a former abbey, to admire its extensive collection of European paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts spanning from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. This includes a collection of art seized from the French aristocracy during the French revolution.
### Musée de la Reddition (The Surrender Museum)
Learn about the end of World War II at the Musée de la Reddition, housed in the former Allied headquarters where the German surrender was signed on May 7, 1945. Explore exhibits detailing the events leading to the end of the war in Europe. A must-see for those interested in Europe’s military history.
### Musée Automobile de Reims-Champagne (The Reims Automobile Museum)
The Musée Automobile de Reims-Champagne has a diverse collection of 250 vintage cars, racing cars, and motorcycles spanning over a century of automotive history. Explore exhibits highlighting the evolution of automotive engineering and racing, and learn about legendary drivers and iconic vehicles. Come for a unique blend of nostalgia, education, and entertainment for visitors of all ages.
### La Porte de Mars Arch
Come see the widest Roman arch that is still standing. It was built in the 200s and is the highlight of the flower garden in the middle of downtown Reims. The arch is conveniently located right by the main train station, so it makes for a good first or last stop on your trip.
When is the best time to visit Reims
The best times to visit Reims are typically in the spring (April to June) and fall (September to October) when the weather is mild and the crowds are smaller. In spring, temperatures range from 50°F to 68°F (10°C to 20°C), with blooming flowers adding charm to the city. In the fall, you’ll find similar temperatures, making it ideal for exploring vineyards during the grape harvest season.
If you visit during the shoulder seasons, check the weather before leaving Paris, as it does get more rainy in the spring and fall. Pack an umbrella and rain jacket, just in case!
Summer (July to August) is much warmer, with temperatures averaging between 59°F to 77°F (15°C to 25°C). It is the most popular time to visit Reims, so you will want to schedule all tours and transportation ahead of time.

“저희 운전기사 이브라힘은 정말 훌륭했습니다. 그는 암만 공항에서 페트라까지 우리를 데려다주었습니다. 저희 비행기가 한 시간 일찍 도착했는데도 공항 출구에 도착했을 때 이미 기다리고 있었습니다. 그는 친절하고 전문적이며 매우 도움이 되었습니다. 다음에도 꼭 이브라힘과 다시 이용하고 싶고 강력히 추천합니다.”
“페루 리마를 여행하는 동안 두 번의 개인 이동 서비스를 예약하기 위해 이 웹사이트를 우연히 발견하게 되어 정말, 정말 기뻤습니다. 두 번 모두 약 3시간 정도의 편도 이동이었습니다. 예약을 이메일로 완료한 직후부터 소통이 매우 좋았고, 이후에는 앱도 다운로드했습니다. 앱 사용 중 몇 가지 문제가 있었지만 고객 서비스가 정말 훌륭하게 도와주며 해결하려고 노력해 주었습니다. 솔직히 고객 서비스가 매우 인상적이었고, 올바른 선택을 했다는 좋은 느낌을 받았습니다. 두 명의 기사님 모두 정확히 제시간에 도착했고 전혀 문제가 없었습니다! 이렇게 먼 곳을 여행할 때 서비스가 얼마나 훌륭하고 모든 과정이 얼마나 편리했는지 아무리 말해도 부족합니다. Daytrip 팀에 큰 박수를 보냅니다! 강력히 추천합니다.”
“우리는 토스카나에서의 2일 여행 동안 같은 기사님과 함께했습니다. 제가 직접 여행 일정을 짤 수 있어서 우리가 가고 싶은 곳과 보고 싶은 것들을 마음껏 즐길 수 있었습니다. 마르코는 정말 훌륭했습니다! 그는 우리를 위해 차 문을 열어 주었고, 제 어머니가 차에 타고 내리기 편하도록 세심하게 도와주었습니다. 차 안에는 우리를 위한 물도 준비되어 있었습니다. 그는 이틀 모두 우리를 데리러 올 때 일찍 도착했고, 가능한 한 마을 가까이까지 데려다주었습니다. 도시로 들어가는 길도 알려 주었고, 우리가 거리를 둘러본 뒤 다시 쉽게 만날 수 있도록 자신의 위치도 보내주었습니다. 토스카나 여행을 위해 운전기사를 예약하기로 한 결정에 정말 만족합니다. 처음 가보는 지역에서 운전해야 한다는 걱정과 어디에 주차해야 할지 모르는 불안이 모두 사라졌습니다. 정말 잘 쓴 돈이었습니다!”
“우리는 Day Trip에서 받은 서비스의 품질에 매우 만족했습니다. 우리는 8월 31일 아테네에서 레프카다로, 9월 7일 레프카다에서 아테네로 돌아오는 두 번의 Day Trip을 이용했습니다. 두 여행 모두 그리스의 아름다운 명소에서의 정차가 포함되어 있었습니다. 두 운전사 모두 훌륭하고 친절했습니다. 그러나 특히 우리를 레프카다에서 아테네로 데려다준 기사 Panos Peppas를 언급하고 싶습니다. Panos는 믿을 수 없을 만큼 친절하고 유쾌했으며, 뛰어난 고객 서비스를 제공했습니다. 그 서비스에는 모든 짐을 처리해 주는 것, 여행 내내 차가운 물을 제공해 주는 것, 단백질 바를 제공해 주는 것, 코린트 운하(경유지 중 하나)에 대한 인쇄물을 제공해 주는 것, 귀국 항공편의 터미널 및 게이트 정보를 찾아 알려주는 것, 그리고 자지키 요리법을 알려주는 것이 포함되었습니다.”
“우리는 이 회사를 정말 사랑하며, 지난 몇 년 동안 여러 번 이용했습니다. 직접 렌터카를 빌리는 번거로움 없이 A에서 B로 이동할 수 있었습니다. 매번 훌륭한 운전사들, 효율적이고 전문적이었습니다. 그 값어치를 충분히 하며, 우리는 Day Trip을 모든 사람에게 진심으로 추천합니다. 그들의 5성 평가는 완전히 자격이 있습니다.”
“Daytrip의 Gonzalo는 우리의 운전사였고, 그는 정말 놀라웠습니다. 휴대폰 신호가 좋지 않아 우리가 어디 있는지 찾기 위해 많은 노력을 기울였습니다. 그는 우리가 로비에 도착할 때까지 인내심 있게 기다렸고, Tulum Dreams Resort에서 공항 근처에 있는 칸쿤의 다른 호텔까지 우리를 데려다주었습니다. 그곳은 집으로 돌아가기 전이었고, 한 시간 반 정도 거리였습니다. 그는 공손하고, 예의 바르며, 친절했습니다. 긴 여정 내내 우리가 편안하도록 신경 써 주었습니다. 빠르고 간결하게. Tulum에서 Cancún까지 편도 차량을 찾는 것은 쉽지도 저렴하지도 않은데, 이 회사는 훌륭한 가격에 훌륭한 서비스를 제공합니다. 앞으로 Cancún/Tulum 지역에 있을 때 꼭 다시 이용할 것입니다. 감사합니다, DayTrip과 Gonzalo.”
“Although we did not do a traditional "sight seeing" tour, we just needed a ride from Paris CDG to Reims, France - but wanted to stop at our Inn in the Champagne region along the way. After looking into various options, we went with DayTrip and everything worked out great. I had used once before to travel from Munich to Prague (with some stops along the way) and knew they were a reputable company. I would highly recommend for a hassle-free journey!”
“We booked a private shuttle from Reims to Paris with Tomáš. The experience from start to finish was excellent. Day trip staff was in constant contact providing details of our trip (driver’s name, phone number, license plate #, make, model and color of car). Tomáš encountered closed roads because of the World Cup game he was picking us up from, but made sure to update us on his progress. When he arrived he was very friendly and offered us refreshments and WiFi. The van was very comfortable and clean. It was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely book with Daytrip again. Thank you Tomáš!”
