Loire Valley's Castles Chambord and Chenonceau Private Tour

Overview

This tour will allow you to discover how the french Renaissance flourished on the banks of the Loire river, which is the largest french site to be on UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites. Several italian artists and engineers such as Leonardo Da Vinci settled in this region that we still name "Garden of France", and thanks to the ambition of our Kings, they planted the seed of an astonishing artistic revolution that you are invited to admire in our beautiful castles. I'll pick you up at 7:00am. After driving 2 hours, we'll make a coffee stop. We'll drive another hour to the 1rst site, the Château de Chenonceaux, also known as "The Ladies' Castle", an architectural gem built across a river. For lunch, we will head to the royal town of Amboise where Leonardo Da Vinci spent the last 3 years of his life. And last but not least, we will discover the Château of Chambord, the perfect example of the Renaissance architecture in the Loire Valley and fruit of King Francis 1rst's ambition.
