The first day

The art of living well

Are you a group of foodies or wine lovers? Spend a day strolling around a vineyard with friends. Or perhaps sample the local cuisine at gourmet and Michelin-starred restaurants, or snack on a sharing board at one of the many riverside bars and cafés (guinguettes) along the Loire.

Second day

Culture or nature?

If it’s culture you’re looking for, Angers and the surrounding area won’t disappoint. Its impressive castles and châteaux, such as the Castle of Angers (Château d’Angers) and Brissac Castle (Château de Brissac), are bursting with history, and there are lots of museums to explore with friends.

If you prefer to lose yourself in nature, take a walk around one of the city’s many parks and gardens. You could even visit the Ile Saint-Aubin or Béhuard, to enjoy some time among nature. Terra Botanica, a botanical amusement park, is also a great way to discover thousands of plants.

Offering something for everyone, Angers really is the perfect place for an unforgettable weekend with friends.
