Orléans enjoys a modified oceanic climate, with pleasant summers around 25°C and cool winters fluctuating between 1°C and 7°C. The ideal period runs from May to September to enjoy the banks of the Loire and the Parc Floral. The month of May is particularly symbolic with the Johannine Festivals (celebrating Joan of Arc), while September offers perfect mildness for discovering the city and its cathedral under a golden light.
No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audio-guide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point: Place Martroi
Underground parking “Le Martroi” – Place Martroi If you choose to park on the street, please note that parking is limited to 2 hours in shopping areas (orange zone) and 4 hours in peripheral areas (green and purple zones). You can pay for your parking at the meter or via the PayByPhone app, which will allow you to extend your parking duration without having to return to your vehicle. For a more relaxed and economical solution, you can use the park-and-ride facilities. You can leave your car there for free all day, provided you use the tram to get to the city center. Preferential rates are available for occupants of the same vehicle.
The itinerary includes a point of interest located inside the Groslot Garden. Entry is free, but the garden gates close at 5:30 PM. You will therefore not have access if you do this tour in the evening. Since the garden visit is an out-and-back route from the Hôtel Groslot, you will have no problem continuing your itinerary.
