Capital of the Loire Valley, Tours will seduce you with its historic center with its charming half-timbered houses, its architectural monuments in the Cathedral and Plumereau district, its Museum of Fine Arts, the Hotel Gouïn, the cloister of La Psalette and its edges de Loire which come alive in the evening taking on the air of a friendly tavern. Tours, an international city of gastronomy, will delight your taste buds with its many gourmet bistros offering local specialties such as Tours nougat. Tours has many green spaces where it is good to stroll, in particular the Jardin des Préhendes d´Oé, classified as a remarkable garden or the botanical garden which will delight you. For lovers of French-style gardens, ihe parks of the surrounding castles will enjoy you, such as the garden of the Villandry castle and its perfectly geometrical flowerbeds that looks like a giant lacework.
Tours is of course the ideal starting point for exploring the Loire Valley castles. The Azay-le-Rideau castle , built on an island in the middle of the Indre, will surprise you. Then reach the Chenonceau castle, which majestically straddles the Cher, on the piles of the old fortified mill that it replaced. Your motorhome will then take you to the Royal Amboise castle, Leonardo da Vinci's burial place which has a unique balcony overlooking the Loire and offering you a 360 ° view. Let's continue our journey to the Cheverny castle, which looks like the Moulinsart castle from the famous comic strip it inspired to Hergé. The imposing Chambord castle will round off your tour in style. Imagined by François I and Leonardo da Vinci, Chambord is monumental with its imposing towers, its famous double spiral staircase, its immense arched coffered vault decorated with the emblems of François I, its 60 rooms and its massive enclosure.
On your way back to Tours, discover the royal Blois castle overlooking the city in its center and the castle of Chaumont.
Without a doubt, your motorhome getaway will be a real journey through time to the heart of history, the stories of the kings of France.
