Discover the lush pastoral landscapes of the Loire Valley on this full day tour from Paris. You’ll see a landscape dotted with magnificent châteaux that was once the crucial boundary between north and south France and is now one impressive Unesco world heritage site. We’ll visit the top châteaux in the region: Chenonceau, Chambord and Amboise and enjoy a delicious typical lunch with wine in Amboise.

Visit the exterior of Chambord castle, the most majestic and visited in the Loire Valley. It is a living embodiment of Renaissance architecture, and you’ll discover how this was the most ambitious and expensive architectural project undertaken by a French monarch. See the dramatic location of Amboise castle, perched atop a cliff overlooking the town, and enjoy a lunch break here, where you’ll be served French food and wines in a local restaurant.

The tour takes us to the picturesque Chenonceau castle, where we take a tour inside the so-called ‘Château des Dames’. The castle holds testament to a history of leading female owners who all added to the construction and design of this attractive castle. See the rich Royal interiors, Royal Kitchen as well as the room of five queens, though you’ll find its arches over the Loire River and the manicured gardens equally impressive. We return to Paris for approximately 8pm.
