    Chateau de Chenonceau

    Your first stop is the Loire’s most romantic icon: Chenonceau, famously known as the “Château des Dames.” Set over the Cher River, it’s instantly recognizable for its graceful arches and elegant silhouette. You’ll have time to explore the château at your own pace, moving through richly decorated rooms and taking in the unique riverside setting that makes Chenonceau feel unlike any other château in France. Don’t miss the gardens—designed in a way that reflects the château’s refined, intimate character and the women who shaped its history.

    Chateau de Cheverny

    Next comes Cheverny, a refined, welcoming château known for its beautifully preserved interiors and classic French elegance. It offers a different vibe—less monumental than Chambord, but wonderfully “lived-in” and polished. Cheverny is also famous in popular culture: it inspired Hergé’s Moulinsart in the Tintin comics.

    Chateau de Chambord

    Your final stop is the Loire Valley’s most majestic showpiece: Chambord, the largest and most spectacular château in the region. This is pure Renaissance grandeur—towers, terraces, and a skyline that looks like a fairytale city built on a roof. Inside, you’ll explore freely and discover the château’s most famous feature: the intricate double-helix staircase, often attributed to Leonardo da Vinci. Chambord is about scale and ambition—take your time to appreciate how monumental and visionary this place feels. It’s the perfect final chapter of the day—charming, cultured, and easy to enjoy before heading back to Paris.

    1 hour 30 minutes Admission ticket included
