We will provide everything you need, including several itineraries from 20 kms – 13 miles to 50 kms – 31 miles.

  • In all circuits, you will get to visit one or 2 of the Loire famous Castles. For instance, it may be Cheverny and Chambord castles. 
  • For lunch, you will enjoy a great picnic, in the shade of a big tree with a bottle of local wine (of course).

 

Visit of a winery in the Loire Valley

  • In the afternoon, you will visit a wine maker who will explain you everything from the vine growing to the bottle. After visiting the estate, you will taste the wines – together with some local snacking.

 

At the end of the day, we hope that you will have lots of beautiful images in mind and great memories to share with your family and friends.

Thank you, Emilie! This was just the trip that we had envisioned. The B&B's that you booked for us were perfect. The excursions were fabulous.

I cannot imagine how this trip …
