great castles and wineries

MiriamLocher, Jun 2024

The tour guide Camille was great, warm, friendly and knowledgeable. The first castle was small but very nicely furnished. The second castle had amazing gardens worth the trip. The afternoon we spent by doing two wine tastings in the region. A very nice daytrip that I can recommend warmly.

My wife and I totally enjoyed this Loire Valley chateau and wineries tour. Out tour guide, Cami, was beyond excellent. She provided a wealth of information while driving us to the different attractions.

This is an outstanding tour and definitely one to consider.

Châteaux and Vouvray wine: the perfect combination

An excellent day! Both châteaux visited were stunning and complimented each other very well. Really enjoyed the guided tours of the two wine cellars and tasting the very good wines at both. Our guide Sophie was superb; knowledgeable, friendly, thoughtful, attentive and energetic.
