Start your walking tour in the heart of Tours, a city where history is written in stone and faith still Guides the steps of its visitors. In the Middle Ages, Tours was a major religious, political and strategic center. From 1355, faced with the ravages of the Hundred Years’ War, the cities of Tours and Châteauneuf were united in one system of fortifications, reinforcing the defensive and urban unity of the city. Discover the city’s rich historical and spiritual heritage through its iconic monuments and sites linked to Saint Martin, one of the most venerated saints in France. Elected bishop of Tours in 371, he established his hermitage in Marmoutier and evangelized the Tourangelle region, creating many parishes. His death during a trip to Candes on 8 November 397 and his burial in Tours on 11 November transformed the city into a major place of pilgrimage as early as the 5th century.

What are people saying about Loire Valley

Hot-Air Balloon Ride over the Loire Valley, Amboise or Chenonceau

Kelly_F, Oct 2026

Magical Hot Air Ballon Ride with Experts_Balloon Revolution

This tour was fabulous! Magical experience in Amboise/ Loire Valley. The guides were so experienced that we felt completely safe. My 87-year-old father even participated in the experience. The company was very cautious about the weather and the winds. There was lots of communication with Kevin days in advance and the day of the tour to make sure it was safe. The flight was so peaceful, soaring over castles and a picture-perfect landscape. We were in a basket for 6 people. Kevin, our pilot, was excellent and so experienced. His mother use to fly hot air ballons. They do have different sizes so you might ask when booking. The drinks after the flight were a sweet way to end the experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour and Ballon Revolution company!

Afternoon Loire Valley Wine Tour from Tours or Amboise

Diane_C, Oct 2026

Exceptional and Unique Wine Tasting

Our guide took us on an unusual path through wine caves of a small family owned winery. As we meandered through the underground, we learned so much about the special process of growing grapes to the bottling of this region's wine. Our guide, I wish I remembered his name, was fabulous as he presented some of the best cheeses that paired deliciously with the wines we were tasting. I highly recommend this tour.

Kimberly_C, Oct 2026

Great Experience in Amboise!

Great experience in an historic wine cave. Guide was a sommelier who was extremely knowledgeable and kind. Wine pairing was nicely done, simple with a few cheeses and meats. Very nice 1.5 activity and just minutes from Amboise and the gorgeous Chateau.

This was a great tour, blending history, wine tasting and delicious food in one day long tour. Kilian kept us informed with his wealth of knowledge. Transportation was clean and comfortable and the whole day was just so enjoyable! We love Viator! Beth Kauffman

Great visit to Lire Chateaus from Tours.

Great Tour! We did the same visits in the past without the Guide. Our guide brought the Chateaus and the history to life with visuals, stories, and detailed descriptions that made the experience so worthwhile. She was professional, entertaining and shared local insights into France and the culture. Well worth it!

Loire Valley Day Tour Chambord and Chenonceau plus Lunch at a Private Castle

Craig_S, Sept 2026

Exceptional

We absolutely loved this tour and would highly recommend it to other travellers. The Loire Valley, Chambord and Chenonceau were wonderful, but what truly made the day so special was our exceptional guide, Marion. Her outstanding historical knowledge, warmth and highly personable approach made everything fascinating, engaging and memorable. We were very, very impressed with Marion and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the day. A fantastic experience from start to finish!

Ann_W, Sept 2026

Take this tour

We ended up with a private tour with Flore. This was one of the highlights of our time in the Loire Valley. Flore was very knowledgeable on a host of relevant subjects. Her information on both chateaux helped us understand the historical and social contexts of the buildings, the people who built them and those who lived in them. These buildings are splendid and shouldn’t be missed. We had sufficient time to tour and sufficient free time to spend in areas that interested us. I recommend this tour, and Flore, very highly.

Full Day Wine Tour in Vouvray and Chinon with LUNCH at the winery

Annie_L, Sept 2026

Amazing tour!

I was a little hesitant at first to book because of the price, but it was totally worth it! Aurelia really knew every detail about the wines in this region and the history as well, she was so easy going and answered all of our questions, had plenty to teach us and had a great relationship with the wine makers. Highly recommend this experience!

Loire Valley Half Day : Villandry and Azay-le-Rideau from Tours

Annette_H, Sept 2026

The Villandry and Azay le...

The Villandry and Azay le Rideau tour was a great experience. Dimitri was a knowledgeable and humorous guide, who gave us a lot of insight into the history of the chateaux and the region. He gave us plenty of time in both locations and even made sure we had time to grab some lunch. I would definitely recommend.

Morning - Loire Valley Wine Tour & Food Pairing, Vouvray

Scott_S, Aug 2026

Wonderful start to my wife's birthday!

While she was hesitant to do a wine tasting early in the day, my wife was quickly onboard after a few minutes with Alycea. She was an AMAZING guide and taught us more about French wine than we ever knew. I now have such a greater appreciation when shopping for French wine now and it is all thanks to Alycea. Her English was perfect and she was a joy to be around. She even got our son, who is early in his wine appreciation journey, to engage and ask questions. Highly recommend, even with the early start my wife loved her birthday wine tasting experience. Thank you Alycea!

Hot Air Balloon Flight over the castle of Chenonceau / France

Elaine_S, Jun 2026

Chenonceau Balloon Ride

We had a wonderful experience with this company. They texted us the evening before to tell us what time to meet. The pilot was very knowledgeable, and he gave information in French and in English. We always felt safe with him and his team, and they answered any questions we had. The breakfast and drinks afterwards were delicious with cheese and honey sourced locally.
