In a comfortable minibus, we'll set off for our first destination, enjoying views of the charming villages and beautiful landscapes of the Loire Valley. Upon arrival at Château de Chenonceau, it's clear why it's the second most visited castle in France.

Following the first visit, our guide will take us to the private Château de Villesavin. Here, we'll have the chance to meet the French countess residing there and enjoy a glass of wine, a homemade appetizer, and a delicious lunch. Free time will be available to explore the gardens at your leisure.
The next stop will be Château de Chambord, a historical architectural marvel in the Loire Valley. The guide will enhance the visit, highlighting iconic rooms and sharing memorable anecdotes.
