Tours/Amboise: Private day trip Chambord, Blois & Cheverny Private Day Trip - 9 AM Departure

Discover some of the finest châteaux of the Loire Valley on a private guided tour of the Châteaux de Blois, Cheverny & Chambord. Journey into the world of French Royalty & taste local wines.
The day begins with pickup from your accommodation in Tours at 9.00 AM or Amboise. Greet your guide, then set off into the sprawling countryside of Loire Valley.

Stop at the Château de Blois, notable for its unique mix of Medieval, Gothic, Renaissance and Classical architecture. The former home of kings Louis XII and François I, its history is steeped in tragedy and is notable as the place where Joan of Arc went to be blessed by the Archbishop of Reims before departing with her army to drive the English from Orléans.

Free time for lunch. Our guide will recommend a nice place.

Pause for a wine tasting and sample some of the organic wines of Cheverny and Cour-Cheverny. The Cheverny appellation produces elegant reds from the pinot noir and gamay grapes, as well as fruity whites from the chardonnay and sauvignon grapes. Sample a stunning organic white wine made from the romorantin grape, imported into the Loire Valley by King François I.

Take a guided tour of the Château de Cheverny, owned by the same family since the days of Louis XIII. See some of the most beautiful furniture in the Loire Valley, and learn the château's rich history, such as its connection to Tintin comic books and the impressive hunts on horseback that used to take place with a pack of 100 dogs. You may even get to see the spectacular daily event of “the dogs’ soup!”

Move on to the Château de Chambord, one of the most recognizable châteaux in the world for its distinctive French Renaissance architecture. Discover the vast national game reserve of the largest château in the Loire Valley, and learn the monument's fascinating history, including the unverified tale of Leonardo da Vinci's involvement in its construction.

Return to your accommodation at 6.00 PM.
