Often referred to as ‘Petit Paris’,
Tours has a renowned historical and cultural heritage. With its châteaux, museums, parks and gardens, the city and its surrounding areas delight many thousands of tourists every year, who come to discover its history and natural beauty.
Its narrow medieval streets, filled with charming shops, enliven the centre of this city that, in 2018, achieved 1st place in the ranking of the most dynamic city centres in France. Located only 1 hour by TGV from Paris, the city has an excellent transport network (airport, motorways, tram lines, bus routes etc.) and offers many cultural and sporting activities.
Ever concerned about the environment,
its conurbation, Tours Métropole Val de Loire, pursues a sustainable development policy through numerous positive initiatives such as fighting against food waste and protecting biodiversity. Ranked 5th in France for its soft transport, it offers 584 km of cycling routes.
With its 30,000 students, Tours has the largest student concentration in the Région Centre, and with its international outlook, it welcomes 3,000 foreign students every year. As a university city par excellence, its campus is spread over different sites: Les Tanneurs (Arts, Literature, Languages, Human Sciences), Grandmont (Science and Technology), Les Deux-Lions (Law, Economics and Social Sciences), Tonnellé (Medicine).
An attractive city, a student city, a connected city, a heritage city, a tourist and cultural city...
Tours really is a ‘city on the move’ not only offering Excelia students a unique living environment which will help them succeed in their studies, but also providing them with the essential elements for embarking on their professional career.
