The Loire is famous for its chateaux, built by centuries of Royal families and their consorts – and rightly so.

But this tour also shows you another side of the region, with protective fortresses, the lush vineyards of Chinon and Saumur, and an historic abbey that serves as final repose for both Eleanor of Aquitaine and Richard the Lionhearted! You’ll pedal through an ancient troglodyte village, pass through two of France’s “Prettiest Villages”, and admire the spectacular gardens of Villandry on this easygoing cycling tour.
