The Tours Loire Valley Tourist Office and the city of Tours offer a thematic tour of the Old Town of Tours, led by a guide.

To the west of the Rue Nationale, the Vieux Tours district extends around the Place Plumereau. It is characterised by a dense and ancient habitat. There is a homogeneous group of half-timbered houses alongside exceptional town houses. These residences bear witness to the prosperity of this sector of the town, which was developed around a huge collegiate church dedicated to Saint Martin. Once housing the body of the saint, it was the centre of one of the oldest pilgrimages in Christianity.

Please arrive 10 minutes before the start of the tour.
