Langeais, a medieval and Renaissance town, welcomes visitors with its drawbridge in an area of forests and vineyards. The red and rosé wines of Bourgueil and St Nicolas de Bourgueil can be shared in the tuffeau stone wine cellars, while on the edge of Anjou, Gizeux the family château in the countryside is an invitation to take your time, before going on to Hommes for a swim in the open air, a great experience on warm days.

Amboise and Chenonceau are among the greatest flagships of the French cultural heritage, while Vouvray and Montlouis are truly prestigious wine regions – the kings of France who lived here certainly had good taste!

The Renaissance town of Azay-le-Rideau, at the heart of the Indre Valley, so dear to Honoré de Balzac; Chinon, the convivial winemaking town with its towering fortress; Richelieu, the ideal of a 17th century town; the emblematic cheese of Sainte Maure – this region is an enchantment for fans of culture and gastronomy!

And then there is the city of Tours, the capital of the Loire Valley, which opens the way to Villandry and its incompariable gardens, as well as to the historic districts, filled with life and charm, the Loire river banks, a rich cultural life and a wonderful range of shops.
