Long Day in a Tight Van
Kelly_B, Dec 2024
Overall this is a very long day to see two castles. Our tour guide did a good job, but was often difficult to understand. The lunch was just ok. Better to rent a car and cover what you want in the time you want. The biggest issue is they pack 9 people into a van, which is very tight. While it technically can hold 9 people, it’s just too tight for the long driving that you have to do between castles.
Amazing tour

It was an amazing tour, our guide was so knowledgeable..."no words"for the landscape, and the castles, it is interesting since the beggining up to the end.
Worth the money!

This tour was the most expensive part of our visit to France but it was worth it. Our guide, Camille, was friendly and knowledgeable. We loved the ease of access to the chateaus, the mix of tour and free time, and the delicious lunch at the private chateau. The two main chateaus were beautiful and the wedding collection at the private chateau was a personal highlight. It was definitely worth the money. Don't hesitate, go ahead and book the Loire Valley Day Tour.

Do the A La Francaise tour !

The Loire Valley and the beautiful Chateaux are not to be missed. France is a beautiful country but this area is indeed special. It was very clear that our guide, Dimitri loved and was proud of this region. He shared so many interesting stories about the chateaux and the characters who built them and lived in them. The lunch at Villesavin was charming and the wine was delicious. It was a splendid tour and a lovely day!
