On offer from the Tourist Office, this service is available as an iPhone application (for iPhones) and as a mobile site (for other telephones).

It enables you to prepare your stay and set off in exploration of Cœur Val de Loire, referencing 900 offers available in Loir-et-Cher: “What to do” – “Events” – “Where to eat” – “Where to sleep”.

Tours monument tracker

This application, which already exists for many other cities (including Paris, Madrid and London), is available for iPhone and Android. It notifies visitors when they pass nearby (at a distance they can set for themselves) a monument, place of interest, museum, or remarkable architectural feature. Visitors can then geolocate the point of interest and consult a summary notice composed of a short text and a picture.
