Treat yourself to a timeless escape in the heart of the Loire Valley, amidst Renaissance châteaux, charming villages and the region’s finest wines. Over two days, let us guide you through the elegant landscapes of Touraine and the Saumur region. Each stop has been carefully chosen to reveal the soul of the region: heritage, vineyards, gastronomy and the art of living. Day 1 – Renaissance Gardens & Characterful Wines Your experience begins in Tours, where your private chauffeur will welcome you for a leisurely journey along the River Cher. In Savonnières, a charming village on the Loire, the pace slows. Then comes the magnificent Château de Villandry and its famous Renaissance gardens, a true masterpiece of balance and geometry. After lunch in a typical Touraine inn, you’ll head to Chinon, a medieval town whose charm remains intact. In an authentic wine cellar, you’ll discover the subtleties of Cabernet Franc during a private tasting. Check-in at a charming hotel for the night. Free evening to savour the region’s peaceful atmosphere. Day 2 – Saumur & Exceptional Flavours After breakfast, head to Saumur, dominated by its elegant château overlooking the Loire. The vineyard landscapes stretch as far as the eye can see. In a cave-dwelling wine cellar, you’ll taste the fine bubbles of Saumur and the region’s iconic wines. Lunch is served at a carefully selected local restaurant. On the way back, a final gourmet stop awaits you in Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine. At a passionate producer’s, you’ll sample the famous Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine AOP cheese, a symbol of the Loire Valley’s artisanal expertise.
