Trip Summary

On day two, a pre-booked and pre-paid taxi will take you to the pretty riverside town of Cognac, and each of your Cognac tours will be a short walk. You will firstly enjoy a visit to the prestigious Rémy Martin Maison. Here, you will be taken on a tour of this world-famous House and the rest of the estate, learning about the secrets of the Rémy Martin heritage and expertise. Your visit will conclude with tastings of three Cognacs and gourmet appetisers.

A three-course lunch will then be served as the guests of Meukow Cognac, after which you will be taken on a tour of the house, concluding with tastings of three Cognacs. Please note that drinks are not included as part of the lunch package and can be ordered and paid for locally on the day. Before being taken back to the hotel, we will arrange a tour for you at the largest and grandest Cognac House, Hennessy. The visit entails a boat ride across the Charente River with a detailed explanation of Hennessy’s history, savoir-faire and international standing, an immersive 360^o virtual reality experience, and a tour of the traditional ageing cellars, concluding, of course, with a guided tasting of some of Hennessy’s cognacs.

For those opting for the four-day break, a third night will be arranged for you at the hotel and on day three, you will be taken to the spectacular town of Jarnac. Here, you will firstly be welcomed as the guests of Courvoisier, discovering the secrets of this renowned Cognac house through a guided tour of their famed cellars and a tasting of some of their signature cognacs. You will then have some free time for lunch and to explore the beautiful town centre before being taken out into the vineyards for a tour and tastings at a small, family-run Cognac House. At this estate, you will be greeted by a member of the family who has owned the estate for several generations and you will have the opportunity to see first-hand the fascinating Cognac-making process. After returning to the hotel, a three course Cognac tasting dinner will be served in the elegant setting of the hotel’s gastronomic restaurant.
