Loire Valley Castle E-Bike Tour – Your Day
Take the TGV from Paris to Tours—about an hour. Walk two minutes to the tourist office, meet your guide, and transfer by minibus to Château de Villesavin where you’ll get fitted with your e-bike and helmet.
From Villesavin, cycle through flat countryside to Château de Chambord. Stop for a snack—local products from the Chambord biscuit factory, served under a linden tree planted in 1900. Tour the castle, then free time for lunch on your own. Bike back to Villesavin for a second guided tour. Minibus returns you to Tours station for your train to Paris.
Total cycling: about 14 miles on flat terrain at a leisurely pace.
Loire Valley Castles: Chambord and Villesavin
Chambord – Built for King François I, true believers think there was input from Leonardo da Vinci, who lived and worked in the Loire for several years. Technically a hunting lodge, but with 440 rooms, a famous double-helix staircase, and a 13,000-acre game preserve, it’s one of the largest châteaux in France.
Villesavin – Built by Jean Le Breton, the finance secretary who oversaw Chambord’s construction. Smaller and less crowded, with a carriage museum, bridal museum, and gardens.
