A fabulous day of gardens, wine, and kings

Dimitri facilitated a marvelous day for us, visiting two chateaux (L'Azay de Rideau and Villandry) and two wineries. He went out of his way to provide additional depth to the guided experience and ensure the day went very smoothly and comfortably for all seven guests. I highly recommend him as a guide

Chateau and winery tour

The tour was well organised, our guide Camille was exceptional, probably the friendliest most welcoming person I met in France. She shared really interesting information about the region and the sites we visited. Both the Chateau’s and wineries were amazing. I would highly recommend!

Fun in Loire Valley.

It was a lovely day. Our guide Chloe was very informative and friendly and had a wonderful disposition. We especially enjoyed the gardens at Villandry. The setting of Chateau D'Azay-Le-Roseau was also fantastic. The 2 small wineries we visited were very interesting and the wines we tried were very good. Their stories of how they came to be were especially entertaining. The caves used by each winery as part of their production and storage facilities are well worth a visit.

Operator response

Dear Robert, Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the Loire Valley and the Villandry gardens in particular. It’s great to hear you appreciated the winery visits, the cave cellars, and the stories shared by the producers. We’re also very happy Chloe made the day informative and friendly. We hope to welcome you again soon! Sincerely, A la française Team

Local Tours Worth Trying

Highly recommend~, this is a great experience, Dimitri is very understanding and will deliberately explain in an easy-to-understand way, the part of the winemaker varies by person, you can really taste fine, if you stay in this area for a long time, you can tell him more about some recommended winemakers, or Chatous😆

Enjoyable full day tour

We enjoyed this tour and Agate, our tour guide. She has incredible knowledge of the chateaux we visited, and it was helpful to have the background information. The wine tours in the afternoon were also nice, and we liked visiting two different types of wineries. The tour stops back in Tours for lunch as some visitors do only the morning or only the afternoon portions. It would make for a more enjoyable day if the half day bookings were separate so lunch could be in one of the smaller villages for those doing the full day.

Operator response

Dear Client , Thank you very much for visiting us in Bordeaux and thank you for your comment, we take note of it! We are delighted that Agathe 's advice met your expectations. Yours faithfully Loire A la française team
