Tours is situated in the center of the Loire castles. It is a city that is easily reached by train from Paris and is a central hub from which to explore the Chateaux.

What is the capital of the loire valley?

Valleys, being physical rather than political, don't have capitals. The biggest towns are Tours and Orléans. The term 'Loire Valley' probably best describes the Unesco world heritage site along the river Loire. The Centre region of France which includes most of this site has adopted Val de Loire to its name for tourism purposes so if this is what you refer then it is indeed Orleans as this is the Region's capital. Many may however argue that the cultural capital is the delightful city of Tours. Check out the geography of the Loire Valley in the link.
