Description

Take a day tour from Paris to visit 2 of the most famous castles of the Loire Valley: Chambord, Chenonceau and Cheverny. Bask in the glamour and grandeur of the days of French royalty.
Escape the hustle and bustle of Parisian life into a French garden. Wander the corridors of French monarchs, hear tales of royal love and kidnapping, and marvel at the beauty of the Loire Valley's exquisite castles.

Today's first stop is Chambord. Constructed by King Francis I between 1519 and 1547, this remarkable building is a perfect example of French Renaissance architecture and is the largest château in the Loire Valley.
Who designed this masterpiece is still a matter of debate, and with competitors like Leonardo da Vinci, these vistas certainly don't disappoint.

The next stop on the itinerary is the enchanting Château de Chenonceau, a true fairy-tale castle, picturesquely situated on the banks of the Cher River. Its history and character are shaped by the women who inhabit it. Home to France's first fireworks display, Chenonceau is truly a place to fall in love with.

The last stop will be at Château de Cheverny, a 17th-century beauty furnished in great taste and with marvelous gardens. Enjoy free time for lunch (not included) during the day either at Chenonceau or Chambord. You’ll be back in Paris in the evening.

Please note that this tour includes the hotel pick-up and drop-off.
