Top Loire Valley Tubing

The sweeping vineyards, lush forests and fairy-tale castles of the Loire Valley are even more impressive from above and this 3-hour hot-air balloon experience is the ideal way to enjoy an aerial view. Float over the UNESCO-listed landscapes of the Loire, Indre or Cher Valleys; spot landmarks like the Chateau of Chenonceau or the gardens of Villandry; then toast your safe landing with a glass of Champagne or sparkling grape juice.

You don’t have to head to the coast to enjoy Loire-Atlantique’s adrenaline-fuelled water sports. Escape the city and head out to Quilly water park on a lake north of Nantes, for this Towed Buoy Ride. Put on your wetsuit and life jacket, head into the water, and hang on tight as the inflatable buoy is pulled at high speed behind a motorboat.
