Saumur Unique Wine Experience Full Day

About this activity

Join us for an immersive full‑day wine experience departing from Saumur.

We’ll explore three carefully selected wine estates, each offering its own character, history, and tasting style. The day includes a traditional French lunch (main course, dessert, a glass of wine) in a charming local setting.

You’ll also discover the region’s unique heritage with a guided tour of troglodyte caves and cellars of contrasting architectural styles, revealing the secrets of Loire Valley winemaking.

A refined, authentic journey through the vineyards, landscapes, and traditions that make the Loire so exceptional.
