Heritage Engineering in the Loire Valley

We are big fans of heritage engineering, and find that our clients are too. Consequently, if you take a tour with us and we pass something like an Eolienne Bollee, we will stop for you to see it, and we will tell you the history of these splendid wind turbines.

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. If you would like an idea of how your tour might look and sound, please check out our YouTube channel.
