Vingårdcykelture i og omkring Chinon i Loire-dalen
Beskrivelse
Jeg er tidligere fra Devon i Storbritannien, men bor nu i Chinon. Jeg har altid cyklet og elsket min cykel, og i den bedste del af mit voksne liv har jeg altid elsket vin... det er mig! Med min familie bor jeg nu blandt vinmarker, hvor vinproducenter skaber noget helt særligt lige uden for døren. Chinon-vin er anerkendt som værende meget speciel i hele Frankrig, men i resten af verden er den mindre kendt, og vi er ivrige efter at sprede ordet om den lokale vin gennem vingårdsture! Vi brugte år og år på at holde ferie i Frankrig, før vi flyttede hertil, og vi samlede aldrig helt modet til os til at gå ind ad en vinproducents store stalddøre, men nu er vi begyndt, vi kan ikke stoppe! Denne type besøg er så vigtig for mange uafhængige producenter, og vi vil nu gerne dele denne oplevelse med dig. Først og fremmest er vores vingårdsture på cykel designet til at være en sjov oplevelse, for dig, familie og venner til at få mest muligt ud af din tid i Chinon-området.

Our bike tour and winery visits with Quintin made for a perfect day in Chinon. The bikes offered a fun and easy way to navigate this beautiful town. Prior to our visit, Quintin communicated frequently, thoughtfully, and clearly via text. Upon arrival, he met us with a warm and friendly welcome; offered some basic bike instructions (helpful for the two non-bikers in our group); and reviewed how our ride would unfold. Very knowledgeable about the area, its rich history, and the winemaking, Quintin was an entertaining and interesting guide. He came prepared with a tasty lunch that took into consideration dietary requests. We visited two organic wineries, enjoying warm welcomes, full tours, wonderful tastings, and water refills (it was a hot day) at both. Quintin captured fun photos of our group in action, which was very thoughtful. We highly recommend this tour.
Amazing experience, Quintin was a great quide who knows the area and made the day interesting and relaxing for us. Definitely a must do in Chinon!
Quintin was wonderful. He lives in the area, is very familiar with the local winemakers, and he personalizes the tour to each group. We had some non-bikers in our bunch, and the riding was easy, the views were spectacular, the wine and lunch were delicious, the conversation excellent… I loved every moment of the trip! If you’re looking at this tour, take it. Would highly recommend to everyone!
Awww- thanks all! Lovely to have met you and thanks again for coming along

Many thanks for coming along- great to meet you and hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday
We loved Quintin and we loved this tour! Quintin was extremely kind, had a great sense of humor, and was passionate about the city of Chinon and the people, wine, and culture there! Riding bikes through the countryside, its vineyards and beauty, and drinking wine and hearing more about how it is grown and produced, was a magical way to spend a day in Chinon! We highly recommend this tour!
Awww… thanks guys. Was great getting to meet you too- enjoy the rest of your time in the region and best of luck with all your forthcoming adventures!
Neil made this tour an amazing experience. We visited 3 wineries, tasted about 20 wines and learned a lot about wine making as well as the history of the region. Biking through the beautiful French countryside is an experience in itself. Highly recommend this tour.
My friends and I had a fantastic time biking through gorgeous scenery, learning about the local wines and enjoying a delicious picnic lunch. The knowledgeable and friendly guide expertly tailored the experience to our desires. I would highly recommend this tour!
We had an absolutely fantastic tour today! Quentin was great about responding to messages and getting us scheduled for a tour, and was very accommodating of the individual needs of our group. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, very fun, and put a lot of effort into showing us a great time. The tour was well organized and included a very scenic bike route, a substantial and tasty picnic (including wine!) , and a tasting experience that we would never have been able to get on our own. We got to visit some very diverse vineyards and learn a lot about the local varieties. We definitely appreciated the small group size and the attention given to making sure we all had an enjoyable experience and walked away very happy! We definitely got our money's worth and would book again, 100%. If you're travelling through the Chinon area, drop Quentin a message and get yourself set up for a great day!
I’m so pleased you all had such a great time. It was an absolute pleasure to welcome you to Chinon. Merci Beaucoup
Pedagogy and advice. We rented bikes in impeccable condition or even new!! Very attractive prices. Great listening from the head of the shop to advise with passion. All bikes can be rented which suits me perfectly to make an electric bike purchase that I will definitely come back to vichy at cycles et cie!! Very important choice of models and brands assembled in France!! This adds to the choice of this shop!! The address to be sure to find them!! 44 rue de Paris not far from the train station and two minutes from the center.
