Planning a company event in Pays de la Loire
Pays de la Loire puts a seminar within easy TGV reach of Paris, with Nantes and Angers as lively bases and the Loire châteaux, vineyards and Atlantic coast close by. It suits teams that want a calm, green setting and short travel.
When to go
April to October is the most pleasant period, with spring and September the easiest to book. The coast is busy in July and August. The oceanic climate is mild all year, but plan indoor alternatives for outdoor activities.
Getting the team there
TGVs from Paris serve Le Mans, Angers and Nantes, and Nantes Atlantique airport has flights from many European cities. Regional trains reach Saumur and the coast. For estates in the countryside, a coach from the station is the usual last step.

Programme ideas
Wine tastings in Anjou and Saumur, cycling along the Loire à Vélo route, a trip on a traditional Loire boat, or a visit to Nantes and its Machines de l’île. On the coast, sailing and sand yachting suit team days.
