The seat of the Loire is the place where so many rivers merge: the Cher, the Indre, the Vienne, the Maine………
The Loire region has been rich in history since the time of the Romans and the birth of Christianity, the period of English superiority and the era of the Plantagenets. It was also the dwelling place for the Kings of France during the Renaissance.
Nature has been generous here, and man has learnt to harness her generosity.
Here, can be found wide forests, famous vineyards, and above all, a love for the garden, both the ornamental and the kitchen varieties, in all the villages.
On our itineraries, we suggest you visit the most beautiful of the Châteaux of the French Renaissance: Chenonceau, Chambord, Azay-le-Rideau, Ussé, Villandry………
We also recommend towns full of history such as Chinon, Amboise, Blois….
In this area, you will find very few steep slopes, and the climate is extremely pleasant between April and October. This pleasant climate helps to make a cycle trip an ideal way of discovering the area during this period.
