Itinerary

We'll zip out of the city and towards our first site: Chateau de Chambord. You'll hear about the strange history of this castle - once intended as a hunting lodge for a king - and climb the staircase that was purportedly designed by Leonardo da Vinci. You'll then have some free time to explore more of the castle yourself. Climb to the roof for spectacular views among the turrets or even take a stroll around the grounds.

Having worked up an appetite, we'll get back on the bus and on to our next stop - an up-close and personal tour of a privately-owned and run castle where we’ll be wined and dined. You’ll visit a charming Château, where family members, perhaps even the personable owner, will be waiting to proudly show you around the estate. You’ll enjoy a tasting composed of a range of white and red wines before we sit down to lunch, a hearty three-course meal of traditional rural French dishes served by our hosts. Please note that on some days, lunch might take place at a different location depending on venue availability.

Our last stop is a tour of the Ladies' Chateau, Chateau de Chenonceau, an elegant 16th century castle that is sure to steal your heart at first sight with its smooth white stone and intricate painted wooden door. Inside the castle is well-maintained with original stone carvings, immense tapestries and an intimate chapel. Almost equal in beauty are the castle grounds and many gardens, planted by the famous ladies who owned the Ladies' Chateau and gave it its name.

Tips:
* Please note that lunch might take place at a different location depending on venue availability.
