Loire Valley or Bordeaux?????

Question

We want to travel to either one of these places, while we r going to be in paris. Which one do u think will be a better visit for say 2-3 days. Thanks in advance guys :)))

Answer 1

BOTH!

Answer 2

would it be possible to do BOTH? say one1/2 days in each,... I sure would try,.. They are both FAB and you are skimming on time,... decide ad get done with it!! MAte!!

Answer 3

For 2-3 days I would say the Loire valley and its castles. Take your time, rent a car to stop in nice places you see along the way, walk along the river or take a boat trip, enjoy the old towns, visit a castle a day and have a nice meal to top the day (good food there). No stress, no running, and usually a nice weather (the Loire is well known for its mild weather).

Answer 4

From Paris take TGV to Tours, Loire Valley (one hour), Spend one or two days in the region (lot of royal castles to visit and a lot of vineyards).

Then take in the same station the TGV to Bordeaux in the direction of the south (one hour and half I think) and stay one or two days there.  Then come back to Paris with the same TGV on the other way.

Answer 5

Loire Valley all the way!!! There is so much to do and see and it's only an hour away from Paris by train.

- Chateaux

- Wine cellars and wine tasting

- Troglodyte homes

- Leonardo Da Vinci's last home in Amboise

- If you have money, a hot air balloon trip above the Loire river

- Fontevraud abbey, Chinon....
