Lovely Tour - This is a lovely tour! The castles speak for themselves - of course they are beautiful and "must-see stops" during a trip to the Loire Valley. But our guide, Agathe, truly made the tour into a wonderful day! She was knowledgeable, warm, and engaging! The lunch at a private chateau was a fun and delicious addition to an already great day!
