As night falls, marvel at the spectacular light and water performance set around the lake before returning to your campsite in the Loire Valley.

Tours – a lively town with a cosmopolitan feel. There is a lovely old quarter, with half-timbered houses and a maze of winding streets to explore, before heading to the superb shopping centre.

Château de Chenonceau – a beautiful château, renowned for its formal gardens and the long gallery, housed in the stunning bridge that spans the river Cher. Hire a canoe and take a trip under its arches.
