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.

5.00Not enough time in Blois. Rushed lunch and bus parked way up a hill with too many steps. Don’t sit in back of bus on a hot day. No air back there.
Too much talking by the Guide,

3.00The Viator was way to talkative, at one point she talked non stop for over an hour!! Ask yourself, how much information can you take in an hour when one person is continaully talking. She totally lost me after about 20 minutes, as she lost most of the bus as well. Then when we went to the castles Thelma was no where to be found, so we didnt know what we were looking at. The Castles were magnificent, guide not to good
Castles were nice but...

3.00Castles were nice but must be prepared for a long bus ride - close to 6 hrs total. A bit of a delay getting our tickets at the first tour which put a rush on the rest of the day. Wine tasting was nice but we were so many people crammed in this little cellar, I hustled wanted to get it over with.
A lot of castle and a little wine

3.00We spent a lot of time in the first castle, less in the second because we were delayed in arriving there and only 15 minutes of wine tasting. That was disappointing! The bus driver stopped for fuel on our way back to Paris. We were stopped without A/C on a very hot day.
