What does a Loire Valley cycling vacation entail?
You can expect to stay in comfortable family-run guesthouses with a relaxed, friendly vibe. Although opportunities to base yourself in more luxurious château-hotels – and live that Loire dream for real even just for a night or two – are just as plentiful.
Rather than basing yourself in one hotel and doing day trips from there, these vacations will usually see you cycling to a new hotel most nights – but don’t worry – you won’t need to cart your luggage with you. Your cycling specialist will transfer everything for you and it’ll simply be awaiting your arrival each evening. What could be easier?
How fit do I need to be?

Do I need to fly?
Accessing the Loire by train is straightforward – if slightly lengthier than a flight. Eurostar services link London to Paris from where high-speed TGV services are available to Tours (35 mins) and Blois (1 hour 30mins). Chissay, another popular starting point for cycling tours, is accessible via local train services from Tours in just 45 minutes.
