Lovely day trip - We had a great experience on our tour. Our tour guide, Ilia, was so informative, great with our children (ages 10 and 12), and had wonderful recommendations.

Tours from Tours - Delightful day trip to both Chenonceau and Chambord with very knowledgeable, friendly guide (Ilya). If you see two chateaux in one day, this is a great combination because the castles are actually quite different from one another.

Excellent tour - The tour was excellent, we had an amazing time, tour guide provided very interesting history facts with a touch of humor and charm.
We had more than enough free time at both castles and plenty of time to take excellent pictures.
The tour guide provided us with excellent lunch suggestions and tips for the rest of our trip.
Will definitely recommend.

Very worth it - Our guide (Ilie, I hope I have spelt it correctly) introduced the background and main characters of the Castle in an interesting and engaging way, with details not available from the internet. He was also very knowledgeable and sincere in answering different questions. The guide is the most critical for joining day tour and this tour is really enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Check The France Holiday Schedule First - Both are must see places when in the Loire Valley. My suggestion would be to check the French holiday calendar prior to booking. Eight thousand people visited on 10 May 2024. Eleven thousand on 9 May 2024. It was packed! Our tour allowed us to skip the extremely long entry lines. Well worth it! Very glad I went. If you go on your own:
1. Go early.
2. Bring a lunch. (There is a lovely, charming, riverside town between Chenonceau and Chambord. Perfect to pick up a lunch.).
3. Plan to spend the entire day.

Amazing - Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of both castles. He was able to share stories and facts that we never would have got If we went on our own. He made suggestions for lunch in the town we stopped in. Overall amazing experience.

Must see Loire Valley chateaux - We took a full day private tour of these two famous chateaux. Both were lovely and our guide Remy, who also drove, was excellent. His background is in French history and he added lots of insights into both locations. We had lunch in the lovely town of Amboise. All in all a day very well spent.
