Itinerary

  • Chateau de Chambord

    Chambord is the most majestic of the Châteaux you will see, boasting massive medieval towers perfectly blended with Renaissance elegance. Set in 13,000 acres of parkland this former royal residence represents the pinnacle of France’s 16th century architectural revolution, and the double helix spiral staircase at the heart of the Château, attributed to Leonardo Di Vinci is simply mind-blowing.

    1 hour

  • Chateau Royal d'Amboise

    Amboise, with its spectacular view over the Loire, is famous for being the last resting place of one of history’s most famous men: Leonardo Da Vinci and with its massive gothic defensive features it evokes that bygone era of knights on horseback.

    1 hour

  • N/A

    Light Lunch "Chez Paul" and stroll in the charming town of Amboise with its medieval center.

    1 hour 15 minutes

  • Chateau de Chenonceau

    Chenonceau, above all stands out as the most beautiful of the Châteaux of the Loire as it extends with infinite grace over the waters of the river Cher. With its ornately carved decoration and history of romance and rivalry, this Château lives up to its passionate reputation and has been seducing visitors for hundreds of years.

Loire Valley Chateaus

Published on Nov, 2021

We enjoyed an all day excursion, touring 3 Chateaus with a wine tasting and quick lunch in Amboise. Our tour guide, Oliver, kept our tour moving at a nice pace so we could see as much as possible. He was friendly and very knowledgeable, answering all our questions.

Castles, what more do you want

Published on Sep, 2021

Long day but magical. Really enjoyed getting to see the castles, different styles and decor. There is a lot of walking involved so not great if you’re out of shape or limited mobility. So much history and architecture. We had Olivier as our guide and driver, really knows his stuff and was fun to chat with.
