The charming town of Amboise has been a great place to base ourselves whilst exploring a little bit of the Loire Valley. We have been here for the last three days enjoying a peaceful location a stone’s throw from the banks of the Loire River and a short walking distance from the town.

Great food, wine, chateaux galore, and fascinating history is what brings hordes of tourist here to the Loire Valley every year. We have beaten the crowds by arriving earlier…in the low season and we got fabulous weather to boot.
