Champagne: Discover the strategic importance of the Champagne region during World War I. Visit the Fort de la Pompelle and explore the Marne battlefields, then unwind with a tour of the world-renowned Champagne cellars.

Meuse Argonne: This sprawling landscape is home to a key period in US history, for the Meuse-Argonne Offensive (1918) was to be the largest battle in American history, involving more than 1 million troops. You can still see trenches, bunkers and shell craters. Pay your respects at the stunning Meuse-Argonne American Cemetery.
