From Paris, the Loire valley is only 42 minutes away by high speed train. The Loire river is the longest wild river in France. The Loire Valley is also the home of  some of the most beautiful castles in France. The kings of France selected this area for its beauty, weather, and quality of life. We call it the “garden of France”. What we are proposing is a real human and sensorial  experience. You will meet face to face with small independant  winemakers of the Loire Valley. We will explore the lesser known villages and taste some great food. Because our very small groups: minimum of 2 maximum of 6, we are able to create the perfect environnent for you to relax, and feel part of the family. You can start your Wine tour/Castles tour leaving from Paris. We know well the Loire Valley and will share with you all our secrets. Come and join us for a day or more in the Loire Valley. Luc Bonhomme, the owner of the company will be your private guide and host during the tour. Luc Bonhomme is a French man educated in the US with a long experience of the Loire Valley.

Sherri & David (USA)   April 2024

My husband and I hired Luc to take us on a private 2 day chateau trip to the Loire Valley in early April 2024.  The trip was awesome!  Everything he mentioned on his website was accurate and completely fulfilled.  All activities, meals, accomodations, transportation and wine was included in the price.  Upon arrival he took us to a very cute town with a great coffee/pastry/chocolate shop.  The restaurants for lunches and dinner were high quality and great service.  Our wine pairings with the food were fun and tasty.  Our first night was a private dinner in a lovely setting and Luc dropped us off and picked us up when we were done.  We toured several chateaus at our own pace.  Luc took care of the admissions and made sure we were comfortable with audio guide recordings.  We met up at an agreed upon spot when we were finished.  We also visited a winery and did a couple different wine tastings throughout the trip.We stayed in his troglodyte for our accommodations.  I highly recommend staying there.  It was immaculate and finely decorated and all needed amenities were available. There was a spacious private patio that was super cute.  Unfortunately for us the weather didn’t allow us to get much use of it.  Luc even left us a breakfast basket on our front step the following morning.  We really enjoyed seeing the countryside and touring through some of the small villages.  The train ride to and from Paris was a quick easy 45 minute trip.  The station in Vendome is small and we had no problem finding our host.Luc is a prompt, courteous, knowledgeable tour guide.  His English is easily understandable, and he has a vast knowledge in many areas.   His attention to detail does not lack.  He is a safe driver and attentive to all needs.  We felt like we received a lot of service and amenities for the cost.

What a wonderful experience my husband and I had on our first trip to the Loire Valley.  I can’t imagine trying to do this ourselves so it was a true privilege to have Luc as our guide and expert.  Even with some travel complications outside of our control Luc adapted the schedule for the day to allow for as much as possible, even getting us a special late day wine tasting.  The restaurant/lunch that we had was one of the best meals during our entire trip (the rest of the time we were in Paris).  Not only was Luc knowledgeable about wine making but also the history of the area and shares some of the best stories…  Don’t think twice about using his lovely service!

 

 

 

LOIRE VALLEY WINE MAP

Originating in the rugged central Ardèche region of France and emptying into the Atlantic near the shipbuilding port of Saint Nazaire, the 1,000km-long Loire river is as French as the Mississippi is American. This is the river the French love best: for the soft green beauty of the regions it waters and because it has so profoundly shaped their culture and identity. The constellation of magnificent chateaux found in the Loire valley has stoked the world’s romantic imagination, making the area between Orléans and Angers one of the most storied and visited destinations in France
