Highlights

  • The impressive cultural monuments of the Loire castles: Around 400 castles make this region so unique and spectacular. You will get to know the Cháteau d'Amboise, among others, which was converted from a medieval fort to a Renaissance château and where Leonardo da Vinci also spent some years. The castles of Villandry, Lengeais and Saumur are also on the route.
  • Idyllic natural experience: The few climbs on the tour provide magnificent views of the Loire Valley. The Loire is not slowed down by any dams or locks here; it is one of the last rivers to flow completely freely. From Nantes onwards, you can increasingly notice the maritime influences before the wildly beautiful Atlantic coast spreads out before you.
  • Lively French towns: explore Blois by coach, visit one of the wine cellars around Chinon, stroll through the alleys of Saint-Florent-de-Vieil and visit one of the world's largest shipyards in Saint Nazaire - one thing we can promise you: you will come home with countless memories.
  • A bold leap into the waves of the Atlantic: Beautiful seaside resorts, sandy and rocky coastlines - at this point, the Atlantic not only invites you to swim, but also to linger. If possible, add a few more days to your beach holiday...
