Destination Montlouis-Vouvray East of Tours

Between Tours and the Val d’Amboise, the destination of Montlouis-Vouvray is distinguished as much by the gentle valleys of the Loire and Cher, as by its hillsides planted with vines. Beneath these same hillsides, great troglodytic cellars are waiting to be discovered!

Between the Loire and the vineyards

Marking the territory, the Loire can be discovered by canoe or boat, but also from the paths laid out in the îles de la Métairie and Bondésir, two beautiful natural areas. These islands, true jewels of nature, offer you an exceptional setting in which to recharge your batteries and reconnect with nature.

For a weekend or a week, treat yourself to a break from time. This region is bursting with assets: 2 beautiful vineyards, a royal river, an exceptional built and natural heritage, cycling routes… Combine nature and the good life!
