This all-inclusive tour will make you fall in love with the Loire Valley's beauty, from its remarkable Renaissance architecture to the diversity of its wines.

Your guide will pick you up at your hotel in the morning and drive you to the Loire Valley while you enjoy freshly baked croissants. As you approach Chambord Castle, your guide will provide fascinating information about the region's history. Start your day with an audio-guided tour of Chambord, revealing the secrets behind this monumental building constructed 500 years ago by King Francis I of France. Next, your guide will drive you along the river, offering glimpses of other beautiful châteaux such as Amboise and Blois.

For lunch, enjoy delightful local food paired with wines at a boutique winery or a carefully selected restaurant. After lunch, take in the stunning views of the colourful landscapes of Vouvray and Montlouis-sur-Loire. Your wine expert guide will stop in the vineyards of Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, and Cabernet Franc grapes to give you an introduction to vine growing. Visit one of the region’s most emblematic producers and discover the troglodyte caves where precious bottles are aged. You'll taste a wide range of wines, including sparkling whites, dry and sweet whites, reds, and rosés. The tour concludes with a drop-off in central Paris.
