Loire by bike - Loire estuary

Bonjour. Among the Loire Valley’s “star” châteaux, Villandry reigns supreme, its world-renowned themed gardens sprawling over 15 hectares (37 acres.) Glorious sights, elegance, order, symmetry: Villandry’s Gardens have delighted visitors since the Carvallo family (they’ve owned the estate since 1906) opened the château to visitors. I was very lucky for my birthday this year and was treated to a private visit of the château and grounds with the owner, Monsieur Henri Carvallo as our private guide
