Let’s get away…
Susan’s intimate knowledge of France and the French language means her bespoke tours to the Champagne region of France are personalised and authentic; while her passion and knowledge of the wine-making techniques of ‘Methode Traditionelle’ means her tours to other global sparkling wine destinations of the world are equally as entrancing.
Australia’s Sparkling Wine is brought to life with her annual guided tour to Effervescence Tasmania – Australia’s preeminent festival of sparkling wine, held every November near Launceston, Tasmania (and sold-out, again this year).
Susan has many more luxury tours, trips and adventures to share:
Private, bespoke tours to Paris and the Champagne region; and onwards to The South of France and the principality of Monaco are possible again…
New Caledonia is a glorious new 4-day get-away celebrating the French Cheese Festival with masterclasses on Champagne… plus Weekends away in the Hunter Valley, Adelaide Hills, and New Zealand are all in design!
