Saumur, a jewel of the UNESCO-listed Loire Valley, is defined by three pillars: horses, wine and tuffeau stone. The Cadre Noir, founded in 1828, is one of the world's most prestigious riding schools — its traditions of French academic equitation are inscribed on the UNESCO Intangible Heritage list. The château de Saumur, perched above the Loire, was immortalised in the Très Riches Heures du duc de Berry. The town is also the heart of Saumur-Champigny, one of the Loire's finest cabernet franc reds, and Saumur brut sparkling wines aged in troglodyte tuffeau caves. Tours, at the other end of this Loire stretch, is the gateway to the great châteaux — Villandry, Azay-le-Rideau, Chenonceau and Amboise are all within easy reach. The taxi is popular with château tourists, horse enthusiasts and professionals connecting to the TGV.
