Included Excursions

Full Day: Chateaux and Gardens of the Loire: A visit to the magnificent and romantic Chenonceau Chateau, famed for its gallery built like a bridge across the gently flowing River Cher below and with an equally spectacular interior. This is followed by a trip to the 16th-century chateau at Villandry, with its formal style renaissance gardens laid out in colourful geometric patterns full of shrubs, flowers and fruit trees.

Full Day: Loire Valley Tour: A drive along the scenic River Loire takes us to Saumur, overlooked by an imposing fairy-tale chateau with its four towers rising high above the town. The town is known for being home to the National Riding School and elite Cadre Noir cavalry regiment, as well as being surrounded by one of the oldest vineyards in France, so the chance to sample some excellent white wines is not to be missed.
