Description

Take a one-day guided tour from Paris to discover the three most prestigious castles of the Loire Valley: Chenonceau, Cheverny, and Chambord, the jewel of the Renaissance. Start your day with a visit to the Château de Chenonceau. Known as the 'Château des Dames', five women played a part in the interior decoration, making Chenonceau one of the most romantic castles in the Loire Valley. Next, head to the Château de Chambord, considered the largest and most majestic castle in the Loire Valley. Commissioned as a hunting lodge by François I, the main attraction remains the intricate 'double revolution' staircase attributed to Leonardo de Vinci. Finally, visit the Château de Cheverny, which is also remarkable because of the inspiration for Hergé's famous Moulinsart castle in the Tintin comics.
