The Loire Valley and Paris: Palaces, Gardens and Wineries:

October 13-23, 2025

 

“Paris is always a good idea.”
- Audrey Hepburn

The valleys of the Loire region are a special reserve of French delights. The kings and their nobility first came here to hunt and gradually made the valley the favorite playground for royals. Palace-chateaus of stunning opulence are nestled beside ravishingly pretty villages, old stone manors, and intriguing medieval towns. We will visit world-class wineries and castles in the Loire Valley where wine lovers will be amazed as we travel through some of the world’s hallowed vineyards. Gardeners will be enchanted by the beauty and variety of floral displays, and all travelers will be thrilled by what nature and humankind have fashioned to delight the senses.

You are welcome to join us as we explore the Loire Valley and conclude the tour with a three-night visit to Paris, including a visit to the Palace of Versailles and its extraordinary gardens and the splendor of the renovated Notre Dame Cathedral.
