Discover the magic of the Loire Valley on an exclusive guided tour from Angers to Blois. Travel in comfort in a 9-seater van as you explore the region’s most enchanting treasures, with 2 to 3 carefully selected visits each day, including at least one magnificent château daily. Wander through iconic landmarks such as the elegant Château de Chenonceau or the fairytale-like Château d’Ussé, along with hidden gems known only to locals.

Each evening, unwind in charming bed & breakfasts set within historic homes and even authentic château estates, where heritage, comfort, and French art de vivre come together. This immersive journey blends culture, history, architecture, and refined hospitality for an unforgettable Loire Valley experience.

Each evening’s accommodation has been carefully selected in historic homes or châteaux, where you will meet the owners and often share a homemade dinner or dine in a local restaurant. Locations have been chosen to minimize your driving time (less than 60 km each day, except on the last day), so that you have time to fully immerse yourself in the culture and meet locals.
