1 Loire Valley Old world villages and fairytale chateaux Discover, at a slow pace, the beautiful Loire Valley. What once was an exclusive paradise for the kings of France is now a UNESCO site open to visitors from around the World. We carefully designed a bike tour through this magnificent region that unfolds between quaint villages, quiet forests, perfect gardens and magnificent castles. There is a thing for everyone here; from natural reserves with dozens of different bird species, to unique gastronomic features, and for the dessert lover, the Tarte Tatin. The Loire Valley produces 25 AOC wines like Sancarre, Pouilly, and Touraine et Chinon. You ll be sure to enjoy everything Loire has to offer.
