4.00It was a really fun day, and pretty long? We had a great tour guide, Roxanne, who knew a lot and was very helpful when answering questions. I’d say for the price it is a bit surprising that lunch wasn’t included. Otherwise I’d give the tour 5/5.
Chateaux and wine o'clock

5.00Nice amount of time in each chateau and the wine cave was interesting. Our guide Killyian had loads of info and with just 2 couples on the tour , it was comfortable and very enjoyable
Wish I had to do it better again

2.00Tour Guide was a nice lady but we couldn’t understand her English and she was scripted. You asked something outside her script and got little reply.
Fantastic tour

5.00This was a great tour! Worth the money! I was coming in from Paris on the train, cutting it really close. Everything went smoothly until I got to the train station and there were no taxis. In a panic and not realizing I could have called an uber, I called the company and they graciously sent the tour guide to come pick me up! It was great service! The tour itself with Killian was fantastic. He is so knowledgeable and shared interesting facts, never repeating himself. He is also funny, personable and professional. The wine tasting portion was also so fantastic! I learnt a lot and the lunch afterwards was delicious. Chambord was my favourite visit. Tour was very worth it to get to see the main castles and the wine caves! Very cool start to finish.
Long day

3.00This was a lot to squeeze in one day. The castles were beautiful and the wine tasting was well done. Unfortunately both castles were quite crowded and we felt rushed to get from place to place. Our tour group included a young family with small children. This was a very very long day for the children and the other members of the tour. I would not recommend families do a 9 hour tour with small children. It’s not fun for them or the other guests.
