Description
At the indicated time, we'll meet in Tours or Amboise, ready to begin an unforgettable excursion to two iconic French castles. First stop? Château de Chenonceau!
On a comfortable minibus, we'll set off for our first destination, enjoying views of the charming villages and beautiful landscapes of the Loire Valley along the way. From the moment we arrive at the castle of Chenonceau, it'll become clear why it's the second most visited in the country.
Accompanied by the fascinating knowledge of the guide, we'll go through each room of the castle, brimming with decorations and paintings that will take you back to the times of the Kings of France. We'll also stroll through the castle's magnificent gardens, which will quickly make you forget the hustle and bustle of the city.
The guide will take us to the charming private Château de Villesavin in the Loire Valley following this first visit. We'll even have the chance to meet the French countess who lives there! After enjoying a glass of wine, a delicious homemade appetizer, and a delicious lunch. Then we'll leave you some free time to explore the gardens at your leisure.
The next stop will be Château de Chambord, an architectural and historical work of art in the heart of the Loire Valley. Your guide will make the visit to the castle a fun and engaging experience, selecting the most iconic rooms to visit and sharing anecdotes you won't forget.
Once we've explored all the secrets of these enchanting castles, we'll return to the starting point at 6 pm if you're picked up in Amboise or 6:30 pm if you're picked up in Tours.
