According to The Travel Authority, "Chef Jean-Robert's enthusiasm for fine food and wine is legendary. Now you can experience, first hand, his native France. As Jean-Robert's guest, you will spend two nights in Paris and four nights in the famed Champagne region, where you will why they say, 'Drinking Champagne in Epernay is like listening to Mozart in Salzburg,'."

Jeannie Houston, a consultant located in The Travel Authority/American Express office in Mariemont, said there has already been a great interest expressed from people wanting to take the trip.

"I've already had people calling me to be sure there is still availability on the vacation," Houston said. "There will be a smaller, more private trip. The people will be treated to wine tours, private cooking demonstrations and tastings by Jean-Robert. It will be more intimate."

The Travel Authority has even teamed with Local 12 in advertising the package.

Some of the highlights of the trip, which will be from March 28, 2008, to April 4, include:

An orientation tour of Paris and sites such as the Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysees, Montmartre and the Louvre
A day Paris Viste Pass, allowing unlimited use of public transportation
An orientation tour of Epernay, including a visit to the Cathedral Notre Dame
Private cellar tours and tastings in Reims and Epernay
Exclusive lunch and champagne tastings
Gourmet dinner at a selected restaurant of Jean-Robert

Travelers will also spend four nights in Vernay, and stay at the Hostellerie la Briqueterie, a four star country inn and member of the Relais and Chateaux Collection.
