Going Underground in the Loire Valley

Many travellers have heard of the troglodyte caves in the Loire Valley, but they don't quite know how to access them. We include going underground into such a cave in almost all our tours, so if you want to know more about their history and are curious as to how they are used now, let us know and we can take you to some really interesting examples. Especially on a hot summers day, going underground in the Loire Valley is a very nice way to spend an afternoon!

To enquire about our private guided tours of chateaux, wineries, markets and more email us or use our contact form. More tour ideas can be found on the Loire Valley Time Travel website.

Viewing Villandry

What could be nicer than a warm autumn afternoon spent at the famous gardens of Villandry? They are at their peak at that time so photographers, gardeners and designers can be inspired by their magnificence.

If you would like to add this wonderful garden to your itinerary, email us or use our contact form. and we will gladly create a day out in the Loire Valley customised for you.

Take the Fast Train and a Slow Car

If you come to the Loire Valley as a day trip from Paris it makes sense to catch the efficient and reliable fast train (TGV) from Paris Montparnasse to Tours Saint Pierre des Corps. It takes about an hour and no road vehicle can match that. Once you are here you can relax and enjoy touring in style in our classic Citroen Traction Avants. They are not really that slow, by the way, and easily do the speed limit on the provincial roads we will be travelling. But you will feel that we are transported back in time, to the days of elegant and comfortable touring.
