Your day begins with pickup directly from your accommodation in Paris. Sit back and relax as your private driver-guide takes you on a scenic journey through the French countryside. Along the way, you'll learn about the Loire Valley, its heritage, and the fascinating story of Chambord.
At the château, start with a guided tour of the castle’s interior, where you’ll discover the history of King François I, admire the Renaissance architecture, and see the famous double-helix staircase — a design often linked to Leonardo da Vinci.

If you visit during the spring or summer season, you’ll also have the opportunity to attend a medieval equestrian show, featuring skilled riders in period costume. Set within the castle grounds, this performance recreates the spirit of royal festivities from centuries past.
Following the tour, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant near the castle. Delight in traditional French cuisine in a peaceful setting (meals are not included unless otherwise specified).
After lunch, continue your visit with a golf cart ride through the estate. Explore the vast grounds surrounding the château — a beautiful mix of forest, fields, and canals. This part of the domain is home to local wildlife and offers wonderful photo opportunities in a calm, natural environment.
You’ll also have free time to relax, take photos, visit the gift shop, or enjoy the views before heading back to Paris. The tour ends with a smooth return to your accommodation.
