Set out from Paris in a comfortable, air-conditioned minibus accompanied by a knowledgeable driver-guide eager to share the local history and intrigue of France’s iconic Loire Valley. Pass through picturesque countryside punctuated by charming villages as you head towards some of the most cherished castles in the region.
Discover Chambord Castle
Your first destination is the majestic Chambord Castle, a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture renowned for its dramatic façades and famously intricate double helix staircase inspired by the great Leonardo da Vinci. Roam through the impressive halls and galleries at your leisure, and ascend to the rooftop terrace for far-reaching views over the expansive 13,000-acre estate. Along the way, your guide will point out highlights and share stories illuminating the castle’s royal past.
Royal Amboise Castle & Da Vinci’s Legacy
The journey continues to the Royal Amboise Castle, beautifully set along the Loire River. Marvel at the blend of late Gothic and early Renaissance designs, wander the lush landscaped gardens and see the tomb of Leonardo da Vinci inside the castle chapel. The village at the base of the castle offers a lovely spot for a lunch break, with plenty of options to sample local cuisine (meal not included).
Wine Tasting at Chenonceau (April–October)
After lunch, travel to the enchanting Château de Chenonceau, known as the ‘Ladies’ Castle’ for the noble women who shaped its legacy. Spanning gracefully over the Cher River, Chenonceau’s arches and gardens make for unforgettable photographs. Descend to the historic cellars for a wine tasting session, where you’ll sample celebrated local wines—typically a bold red, a crisp white, and a refreshing rosé—available from April through October. Your guide will provide insight into the region’s winemaking traditions and the significance of each vintage.
