About this experience

Meet your guide at the Tourist Office in Amboise and drive by minivan to Chenonceau.

Upon arrival at Château de Chenonceau (one of the most visited historical monument in France), admire the unusual castle built on a bridge across the Cher river. Stroll through the manicured gardens named after the "Catherine de Médicis" and "Diane de Poitiers", the famous ladies who lived there. Take time to appreciate the refined architecture and feminine influence of each room and see beautiful antiques and lovely arrangements of fresh flowers.

Lunch will be served at an off-the-beaten-path location, hosted by the French Countess who lives there permanently.

Continue to Chambord. Discover glorious works of art and architecture as your guide selects the most emblematic rooms to visit. Hear memorable anecdotes as he/she points out hidden details.

Enjoy the most striking views of Château de Chambord, before returning to Amboise.
