Start your day with a guided tour of the castle of Azay-le-Rideau. Located on an island, the harmony of its facades makes it one of the best examples of renaissance architecture in the Loire Valley. Tour the 16th, 17th and 19th-century apartments to see the legacy of the castle's successive owners.
Next, enjoy a wine tasting at a local winery near Chinon, a former fortified farm and 16th-century chateau, now owned by a Belgian couple specialising in organic wines of the cab francs variety. Discover a wide range of reds and a thirst-quenching rosé!
After some free time for lunch in Langeais, you're headed to tour the Chateau of Langeais and its fifteen refined rooms, where you'll get a glimpse of the daily life of a medieval lord.
Your last stop is the beautiful gardens of Villandry, a large privately owned estate most famous for its Renaissance and vegetable gardens.
