The city of Tours was founded in the 1st century on the left bank of the Loire. In the Middle Ages, two distinct areas developed: one built around the Cathedral, the other around a huge collegiate church dedicated to Saint Martin, the Châteauneuf area, also known as Old Tours. Tours was the royal capital from 1440 to 1520, and at the end of the Middle Ages and beginning of the Renaissance, almost all of the city's residences were rebuilt. From this flourishing period, the town inherited a homogeneous collection of old houses and religious buildings, which you can discover on this tour. This tour has been awarded the Ville d'Art et d'Histoire label.

Duration: 1h30 - Price: from €21 Just outside Tours, the Bateliers du Cher offer guided tours all year round, departing from Savonnières (up the Cher towards Tours). You'll board traditional 18th and 19th century boats (seating 12) for an hour of discovery. A change of scenery and peace and quiet guaranteed!
