The Bike Escape Game: A Unique Tour Through the Vineyards of the Loire Valley
Get ready for a unique activity in Saumur—perfect for a shared adventure, whether as a couple, with family, with coworkers, or with friends at a bachelorette party or bachelor party. At Maison Langlois, an intriguing chest was discovered alongside an incomplete manuscript: its missing pages are said to have been scattered throughout the town and its vineyards—certainly on purpose…
An unusual outing in the heart of the Saumur wine region
To piece together the missing pages of the book discovered in the cellars, take an exciting 9-km loop on an electric bike, starting from the Maison. Guided by a free mobile app, you’ll need to solve several puzzles as quickly as possible. The reward: unlocking a mysterious chest… and a delightful guided tasting of four Langlois wines (or grape juice for minors). A mystery game full of flavor!
