About Riverloire
Since 2007, Riverloire has operated across Tours, Amboise, and Paris, delivering luxury travel experiences anchored in the Loire Valley. Founded by Karine and Thierry Micalet, both veterans of international travel operations, the agency concentrates on bespoke itineraries and private guided tours for discerning clients.
The company delivers private tours ranging from fully guided five-day and three-day itineraries to semi-guided Loire Valley excursions and tailor-made day tours. Cultural offerings include Loire Valley Chateaux visits and castle access outside normal hours. Wine programming spans full wine tours, day wine experiences, and tastings in private cellars directly with winemakers. Culinary services feature gourmet tours and French cooking classes. Beyond leisure travel, Riverloire manages incentive programmes, corporate group services, wedding planning with destination arrangements, and special occasion events. The agency also provides hand-picked luxury accommodation, VIP transfer services, and personalized itinerary customization.
Operating with a small team of one to ten staff members, Riverloire combines hands-on ownership with direct knowledge of regional suppliers and exclusive venues.
