Old world villages and storybook chateaux bedeck the Loire, once fought over by Gauls, Romans, Visigoths and even Attila the Hun. Rent bikes and roll through the lush valley, visiting fortresses in Amboise and Angers, UNESCO-designated Chartres Cathedral and the Gothic cathedral in Nantes. Musee Jules Vernes houses replicas of inventions designed by the futuristic author. Pay respects to other former residents: the Romans in Tours, the cave dwellers of Touraine, and the liberator of Orleans, Joan of Arc.

The tourist office is a great place to start, and often you can get tickets without waiting the intermidable queues of people waiting to buy tickets at events and places you visit. When it gets hot, this is important! Really helpful, good on languages, cool and never too busy - which seems strange. In Saumur 'le petit train' goes from the tourist info office, and is a good way to see Saumur in brief, and choose places you might like to visit - and others you may wish to avoid! Recommend the little train!
