"While we were exploring France in May 2012, one of the MUST visit stops along the way was an overnight in Saumur...mainly to visit this museum. My husband is a HUGE tank and military enthusiast and was so looking forward to seeing all the tanks from around the world...but mainly to see one of the ve..."ry few good looking and in working condition King Tiger tank. We spent more than 3 hours walking around and over one hour in the German room itself. This place is huge and very well organized. We were also very lucky having visited in the late part of the afternoon and had the place pretty much to ourselves!!!! Loved it.

"We contacted the Langlois-Chateau via email and asked for a visit of the caves, and explained that none of the three of us spoke much French. We couldn't have been better taken care of! Our guide spoke excellent English and was very cordial. We were given a quick lesson in the process of making w..."ine, with good explanations of how white, red, and sparkling wines are made. This was followed by a visit to the caves and a view of the entire process--very interesting! We ended our tour with a nice wine-tasting. My daughter and husband both are in agreement with me that this is the tour to take when in Saumur if you're wanting a tour that is comprehensive and enjoyable. We all hope to return someday!
