Ten minutes over Tours and the meeting of the Loire and the Cher — the valley's shortest first flight.
Ten minutes, the shortest format in the valley. The aircraft lifts off from Tours airport, climbs above the town and reaches the point where the Loire and the Cher meet downstream. You see Saint-Gatien cathedral, the castle, the quays and the slate roofs of old Tours before turning back on the northern loop. A genuine first flight: short enough to take children up, high enough to understand how the town settled between its two rivers.
Frequently asked questions
Can the aircraft be chartered privately?
Yes. All our scenic flights can be privatised — the whole aircraft to yourself, whatever the number of passengers. It is also the only way to guarantee an exact departure time, since a shared flight depends on the aircraft filling up.
What happens if the weather is bad?
A flight never departs in degraded conditions: the decision rests with the pilot, usually the day before. The flight is then postponed, or refunded, according to the operator's own terms — we reproduce them word for word on each page, before any request.
Can children fly?
Yes, from the age of 2 on most aircraft, and on an adult's lap below that age depending on the operator. Each passenger's weight is requested at booking so the aircraft can be correctly balanced.
