Our guide was so knowledgeable about Amboises, Chenanceau, Clo Luce and so interesting. The sites were amazing and hearing the history behind them made it more memorable. Caves of Ambacia was fun our wine guide was so interesting...learned alot about wine and French culture. We had a great group too!
Best money spent! Otherwise you have no idea what your looking at..... it's not just a castle!

Excellent tour and tour guide. Her knowledge of the castle's history and the inhabitants was astounding! She knew so many facts and great stories of the castle's history it made them come alive. She was flexible and accommodating. We would take any tour with her leading. Its the best money spent. Without a tour you don't get the deep history and story behind everything you see. Becomes much more meaningful.....
Excellent tour!

Amazing day with Marion! Despite having only been a tour guide for a short period of time, I thought guided like she had years of experience! She was so kind and offered to take pictures of us - which was amazing cause I was traveling solo. This tour is an absolute must for any Leonardo Da Vinci fans as you get to walk in the last footsteps of the great master. Each castle more special than the last and the end visiting Leonardo’s last home. Only disappointment was not being able to see Leonardo’s grave at Amboise castle. Normally this tour goes there but it is under construction right now and for the next couple years. So make sure you check that if you want to see that.

The guide Simon was incredible nice, professional, courteous, funny and very knowledgeable. Marianne was also very helpful and arranged for us to intercept the tour in a different town as we mistakenly believed City Tours was an office not a city 2 hours from Paris. Once we joined the group it was a beautiful trip. Wished we had more time at Clos Luce.
