A History Lover's Itinerary for the Beautiful Loire Valley

The itinerary I made for our Loire Valley visit so we could see as much as possible in a short visit. Plus I'll show you the B&B tower we rented, and share some notes on what we'd recommend you add to the trip or do differently if you have more time in this amazing part of France.
