Tour with a Rental Car in Blois

The counts of Blois, the most powerful feudal lords of France, emerged in the 10th century with Theobald the Cheat, who, by various methods, soon began adding to his holdings. Sold to Louis duc d'Orleans, Chateau de Blois was the birthplace of Louis XII who ascended to the throne making the town the quasi capital of France until the end of the 16th century. It is an imposing structure begun in the 13th century and worked on until the 17th century. The Loire Valley played a large part in French history and is easily accessed with a rental car from Auto Europe. Walking and bicycle tours along the river and around the valley are very popular among visitors. For something a bit less strenuous, look for a tour boat on the river and watch the chateau and countryside slip by, as you relax on deck. If you're more of a free spirit, rent a car and create your own itinerary; vineyards and castles abound in the Loire Valley. Questions about driving in Blois?
