1 France Castles of the Loire Valley Blois Bike Tour 2019 Individual Self-Guided 7 days / 6 nights Douce France or Jardin de France : this is what this region is called by the people of the Loire. Take a bike tour through this vibrant cultural landscape, which reflects a harmonious way of life where man has found his rightful place in nature. The Loire offers some unique encounters, a real chance to rediscover nature. If you travel to the heart of the Loire region, you will pass châteaux and abbeys, historic cities to typical villages, where all around you the Loire stone colors the landscape, with the white of the tufa stone and the black of the slate. To help you discover the richness of this living stone, the royal river, like a magic key, will open up the grand gates of the famous châteaux: Chenonceaux, a sumptuous bridge on the river Cher, Chaumont, a delicate fortress in the forest, Blois, where French history took place, Amboise, treasuring the tomb of Leonardo da Vinci, Chambord, with its 380 chimneys and 406 rooms, representing the apotheosis of the Loire Castles. With this tour you will have the chance to discover this region during some easy and relaxing bike tours, on a flat itinerary, following secondary roads in the forests or along the river Loire and its tributaries.
