This stage of the Loire à Vélo leaves Tours by the Pont Wilson and follows the south bank of the river past levees, vineyards and villages. It goes through Montlouis-sur-Loire, known for its white wine, then Lussault-sur-Loire, before arriving below the Château d'Amboise.
It's almost flat and well signposted. In Amboise, Clos Lucé, Leonardo da Vinci's last home, is a few minutes from the château. Regional trains between Amboise and Tours take bikes.
