The Key to a Great Visit in the Loire Valley

If you visit the Donjon of Loches with us late in the day, you may experience the fun of helping the docent lock up, with these fabulous keys from the 17th and 19th centuries. Be prepared to climb lots of stairs though!

Be the Centre of Attention in the Loire Valley

Our chauffeured tours are conducted in classic Citroen cars. French people all know these cars and have fond memories of them. They attract a lot of attention. You will find yourself being waved at, smiled at, given the thumbs up and photographed, everywhere we go.

The couple on the right are our clients, from Texas. The man on the left is a French tourist and he circumnavigated the car, excitedly filming. Goodness only knows how many FB and Insta accounts we feature on. Claudette, one of our classic Citroen Traction Avants, is parked just outside the exit to the Chateau Royal d'Amboise.

A Review From John and Deborah

John and Deborah, from the USA, and their friends did a three hour walking tour of Amboise with me in October 2022 and left a lovely review of their time with me.

A wonderful day with Susan in Amboise. She was extremely informative, and a perfect way to start our time in Lorie Valley. Our trip was wonderful, thanks to a great guide. We would recommend her to anyone that will be coming to visit the Château's.
