"French Immersion Weekends" with the Champagne Goddess
Saturday & Sunday
Duration: 2 days, 1 nights
Break away from the ordinary and indulge in a luxurious French immersion weekend with your best girlfriends, hosted by the Champagne Goddess. This enchanting experience is designed to celebrate all things French, offering the perfect opportunity to plan your dream trip to France.
Your weekend will be filled with delightful activities, including a small group French lesson with Alliance Française, a visit to the Art Gallery of NSW to admire French-related art exhibitions (or experience the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman prizes) a Champagne Masterclass with canapés, before we head off for an evening of practicing your new language skills at an intimate inner-city French restaurant, and supper and live jazz at Restaurant Hubert….
Sunday morning, arise for a walking breakfast – with a stroll to find Sydney’s best croissants at nearby boulangeries, or will we decide the Four Frogs Café in Circular Quay is more fitting…?
Transport will be provided to explore homewares, French Produce and wine at the famous ‘Le Marche Francais’ in Willoughby.
We’ll finish the weekend with a sumptuous ‘picque-nique’ in Wendy’s Secret Garden… just a stroll away from Lou Lou’s French Café… where, if it’s raining, of course we’ll stay warm and dry in their cosy bistro.
Enhance your stay with optional one or two-night accommodation at the elegant Sofitel Wentworth, Sydney. Whether you book a room, or stay with a local, meet us for the adventure, as this weekend promises to be an unforgettable French escape!

How are my Wine Tours Unique?
As someone who’s had a long-standing love affair with all things sparkling, be it Champagne, Prosecco, or a delectable Sparkling wine—I made it my mission to ensure that each of my Tour guests enjoy connection and savour meaningful experiences that go beyond the usual tour routes with other like minded, passionate wine connoisseurs.
Let’s be honest… wine always tastes better when it’s shared! I’ve found that great wine tastes even better when paired with great stories, lively conversation and a touch of expert insight.

My Wine Tour Reviews
Effortless and organised
Touring to Tasmania with Susan is always effortless and organised. We really enjoy the program of masterclasses at Effervescence Tasmania, however this year, Susan created some bespoke activities that were better than expected. Meeting Tasmanian Winemaker Natalie Fryar at our own dinner was really interesting. I learned a lot.
Lots of fun and laughter
Had a wonderful time with the Champagne Goddess at the Tasmania Effervescence Festival. Susan provided for every occasion making it memorable. Lots of fun and laughter. A most enjoyable and worthy occasion, not to mention the Tasmanian Sparkling Wines!
I can’t wait to do this again!
A must for anyone who wants to experience some of the best world class sparkling wines & food Tasmania has to offer. I can’t wait to do this again. The Champagne Goddess has perfected everything you want from a small group boutique tour of the best wineries & hidden foodie gems in this beautiful region.
