Paris Loire Valley Castles Tour with Chambord and Chenonceau 13 hr

Leave Paris behind for a full-day journey through the Loire Valley, France’s celebrated Garden. Travel by air-conditioned vehicle to three remarkable castles, with entrance tickets and a trilingual guide helping make the day straightforward. At each château, explore the interiors and gardens at your own pace.

Visit Chenonceau, whose graceful arches cross the River Cher, then discover Cheverny, a privately owned château associated with Tintin’s Marlinspike Hall. The day’s grand finale is Chambord, commissioned by King François I and famed for its monumental scale and double-helix staircase, traditionally linked to Leonardo da Vinci. This Paris Loire Valley Castles Tour brings together Renaissance history, distinctive architecture, and time to explore each estate independently.

During the Christmas season, from November 29 to January 3, the châteaux are decorated and illuminated; the tour also includes champagne and a box of chocolates then. Meet at France Tourisme in Paris and enjoy round-trip transport as the logistics are taken care of. Choose this Paris Loire Valley Castles Tour for a rewarding day among three of the region’s best-known residences.
