Loire Valley Castle day trip

France’s Loire Valley is a royal region seeded by beautiful towns and villages, each of them with its own castle. It is called as well the “Garden of France” due to the abundance of vineyards, gardens, fruit orchards and cherry fields that are spread along the valley.

La Petite Frenchie has designed a tour that combines the best of the UNESCO-listed Loire Valley: its most majestic Renaissance castles and gardens.

Through this full-day tour, you will admire the Chenonceau’s amazing floral gardens, and marvel at the sheer grandeur of Chambord, the largest chateau in the valley. At Amboise, see the quarters of King Francois I and the tomb of Leonardo Da Vinci.

Your guide will pick you up at your hotel early in the morning, and drive you (approx. 2h) towards Loire Valley.

Chateau de Chambord

The biggest Chateau of Loire Valley and the best examples of the renaissance architecture, today a UNESCO world heritage site.

Start the day with an audio guided tour of the castle which, will divulge all secrets behind this monumental building, constructed 500 years ago by the king Francis 1st of France.
