We had a lovely time with Kevin and Denise on the ebikes. The picnic was amazing and Denise was able to cater to our dietary needs. Kevin was a knowledgeable and interesting guide and exploring the caves was really interesting - good to get off the beaten track. They spent a lot of time ensuring we were happy and well looked after - would def recommend!
Wonderful tour of Loire River.
