Step by Step

France is home to some of the most impressive Renaissance castles, which you will be able to visit thanks to this 1-day tour from Paris. Throughout the tour you will be accompanied by a tour guide who will explain everything about the 3 castles you will visit on the tour: Chenonceau, Chambord and Cheverny.

Each of these castles has something special to offer. Starting with the Château de Chambord which is the largest castle in the Loire Valley. Its exterior design leaves all visitors speechless with its immense size. You will also have free time to explore the castle on your own once the guide has finished. On the other hand, Chenonceau Castle is known as the 'Ladies Chateau'. This nickname is due to the fact that it was built by powerful women, whose contributions can be seen in the interior decorations. Finally, the Château de Cheverny, one of the oldest châteaux in France, has been the stately residence of the family of the same name for over 600 years. Outside, the park and its 6 themed gardens, including the orchard "le Jardin Sucré". Also known for hunting with dogs, you will be able to see its rich kennel which houses about a hundred dogs.

The coach will leave at around 5pm for an expected arrival in Paris at around 8pm.

    Some castles on their own do not offer information in English, so it is important to hire a guide like this one to tell you the most relevant facts.
