ORLÉANS
GREETER WALK
COME FOR A GREET WITH A LOCAL
Stroll through Orléans with an Orléanais, a Greeter!
Orleans is one of the oldest cities in France. Located on the banks of the Loire between Beauce and Gatinais, The Forest of Orleans and Etangs de Sologne, it combines a prestigious environment with an event-rich history.
Through the passionate eyes of Orleanian, discover the little story, that of everyday life…
Who are we?
The Greeters offer their time, volunteer and share their passion for their neighborhood or their terroir, during a free walk and a real friendly meeting.
During the walk, the “greeter” will walk with you in the streets of a neighborhood he loves for the richness of its past or for its architecture, its markets, its cafés, its craftsmen or its artists…
You’ll discover places that even backpackers don’t know…
Starting? So sign up for a Greet.

What do our visitors say after a walk in Orleans with a greeter
“Nous étions 3, dont 2 connaissant un peu Orléans et nous avons été tous les 3 ravis de notre longue flânerie. Nous avons appris énormément de choses et fait de très belles découvertes tout au long de l’après-midi. Agnès, notre greeter, a été passionnante et très sympathique. Nous ne connaissions pas le concept des greeters et nous avons été emballés par cette manière de partir à la découverte d’une ville.”

“Estelle, super flexible dans son accueil face à notre embarras de location de vélo, nous a baladés à travers des venelles surprenantes et un vieux Orléans plein de charmes et d’histoires. Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment et découvert un agréable salon de thé cosy. Encore merci pour ton souci de notre sécurité vėlocypédique.”

Nous connaissions déjà quelques attrait historique de la ville mais Anthony a toujours su nous sortir une annectodes intéressantes de son chapeau. Je le recommande pour sa bonne joie, sa passion pour Orléans se ressent dans ses discours.”

JEAN-PIERRE
Orleans walks – Orleans and the Loire
I’ve been orleanian for 36 years. It would be a great pleasure for me to meet English-speaking tourists. I would like to introduce them to my city, the way of life of the inhabitants, as to friends visiting my house. We will share a friendly moment, exchanging our cultures and strolling through the Johannic city.
AGNÈS
Orleans walks
The banana or the “smile” if you prefer, this is probably what characterizes me, not to mention the energy, (translate: this chick is speed and never stops). Rest assured I can adapt to your rhythm and especially to your desires: sharing and exchange above all!
Epicurean, curious, loving (no, ADORANT) arts in all their forms (theatre, street art, architecture, creators …) I’m always looking for novelty, never 2 feet in the same Doc Martens. Fancy a recommendation on a restaurant, a bar (beer preferably for me or wine), a film review…: I’d love to give you my point of view.
Sparkling, dynamic, described by some of my friends as a “sunshine” or “white tornado” by others, I shudder at the idea of leaving you a lasting memory of this beautiful little-known city. One last thing: I’m Agnes and you?
It will be my pleasure to accompany you in these walks full of spontaneity and in a friendly atmosphere.
Anthony
Orleans walks
A native of Orleans and a lover of the city, I propose to discover this beautiful “Ligerian city” through its urban and architectural evolutions. An ancient centre unknown, profoundly modified over the centuries and yet resealing many Secrets…
On foot, we will walk together between churches, cobbled streets and urban anecdotes, in order to better understand Orleans and its true rebirth.

Orleans and the Loire
If you want to stroll along the banks of the Loire in Orleans, I would be happy to accompany you to discover these places. I am passionate about Loire and history.
Ligerian since day one and Orléanais for almost thirty years, I will be happy to take you for a walk, to discover the banks of the Loire of the Orleanian Metropolis: quays, bridges, trails, buildings… I’ll tell you the big story but I’ll also tell you anecdotes.
My interests like yours: walking to observe and find curiosities.
