Description

Day 1: Arrival in Tours
Take the chance to visit the city of Tours, we recommend exploring the old part whose beating heart is the Place Plumereau, a lively square framed by characteristic half-timbered houses and animated by the terraces of the cafes and restaurants that overlook it.

Day 2: Tours – Villandry (21 km)
Cycling on the bike paths of La Loire à vélo you will reach the Castle of Villandry, famous for its famous French Renaissance gardens where flowers, fruit trees, vegetables, and aromatic herbs mix. Don't miss the Garden of Love that tells through colors tender love, passionate love, fickle love, and tragic love, the Physical Garden, and the Music Garden.

Day 3: Villandry – Azay le Rideau (24 km)
Today's itinerary will first take you to the Château de Saché where you can immerse yourself among the lilies and peonies of the gardens that inspired Honoré de Balzac in writing the novel The Lily in the Valley. It then continues towards Azay le Rideau which will win you over with its wonderful Renaissance castle nestled in the greenery and the waters of the Indre.

Day 4: Azay le Rideau – Rigny Ussé (18 km)
Once you get in the saddle, head towards the sixteenth-century Langeais castle, typical medieval fortress inside which you can admire wonderful tapestries and antique furniture. It then continues towards the Ussé Castle which inspired Perrault for his famous fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty in the Wood.

Day 5: Rigny Ussé – Chinon (18 km)
Cycling through the forest you reach the medieval town of Chinon, immersed in the vineyards where, if you wish, you will have the opportunity to visit one of the many cellars that rise along the banks of the Vienne river, famous for the elegant red wine produced there.

Day 6: Chinon
Departure during the day.

🙋 Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own bike?
Of course! You can participate in any tour with your own bicycle or rent one. However, we recommend renting because not all spare parts are the same, and only with our bikes can we guarantee the best mechanical assistance.
What kind of assistance will I have during the trip?
You will always have an emergency phone number to refer to. In self-guided trips, you should be able to perform minor repairs, like replacing a tube in case of a puncture, or fixing a dropped chain, but you can always count on local assistance for more serious breakdowns.
How do I know if a tour is within my capabilities?
We classify tours on a scale from 1 to 5 based on length, elevation, and complexity of the itinerary, but if you have doubts, contact us and we will help you find the most suitable journey for you.
What is the cost of renting bicycles?
The rental cost varies depending on the bicycle model and the duration of the tour. For some tours, we offer the possibility to rent different types of bicycles. During the purchase process for each route, you will be asked to indicate your preferred bike type and the corresponding price will be shown, so you can choose freely and without surprises.
Are rented bikes equipped with accessories like lights or bags?
Yes, rented bicycles are equipped with all necessary accessories to comply with road traffic regulations (lights, bell, etc.). A lock, repair kit, and a bag to carry everything you need for a day in the saddle are always included in the rental. Additionally, we offer the option to request extra accessories based on your needs.
