What To Expect
Loire Valley
Marvel at the Loire Valley's opulent Castles and taste its famous locally-made wine during this full-day tour from Paris.
Chateau de Chambord
From Paris, you’ll head first to Chambord Castle. Disney fans will find this castle’s turrets familiar; it was the inspiration for the castle in ‘Beauty and the Beast’. Though originally conceived as a royal hunting lodge, it was built to a scale that must be seen to be believed. You’ll learn all about the castle’s captivating history from your guide, before getting your own chance to explore. Climb a staircase supposedly designed by Da Vinci; enjoy spectacular turret-framed rooftop views; glimpse wild deer around the grounds; and work up an appetite for the next stop.

5.00Great tour, but not enough time to spend at each location. Makes me want to return and stay in the area for a more complete overview. The town of Blois was so charming, but no time to explore it.
Chambord and Chenonceaux day trip

4.00This was an excellent day trip! I would highly recommend this. Our tour guides Yasmina and Goran were wonderfully friendly and informative. The bus was very comfortable and I am 6ft 3inches tall. If there is one thing I can say that might be needed would be to spend a little more time going through Chenonceaux. At the same time they did say we could spend less time at the wine tasting. Great trip!

5.00Great deep dive into French history! Our guide Raymond was a wealth of information so prepared with the history of the places we visited. He is a traveler’s dream guide! Able to speak to the current tour and advise other experiences. I learned so much! It’s a long trip from Paris but worth the effort to see this glorious region. The driver and guide did everything possible to ensure safety and comfort of all guests. I really enjoyed every part!
Great Châteaus, annoying people

5.00Great experience at the two Châteaus and our tour guide, Raymond did a great job explaining the history of what we were going to see. Unfortunately, the worse part of the trip was the people that we had to travel with. They were so annoying - not following instructions, not coming back on time, fighting about restaurant discounts, reclining in their seats when literally there is NO room to recline in the bus, playing videos on their cell phones with the sound up, etc.
