After an introduction to its royal history, enjoy time to explore the castle independently, admiring its magnificent rooms, remarkable staircases and panoramic terraces. Continue to the historic town of Blois, where you'll have free time to purchase lunch, stroll through the town centre or simply enjoy its charming atmosphere.

In the afternoon, visit the elegant Château de Chenonceau, beautifully spanning the River Cher. Discover its richly decorated interiors, fascinating history and magnificent gardens during a self-guided visit. Depending on the departure date and option selected, the experience can also include a tasting of regional Loire Valley wines in the Chenonceau area.

Relax on the return journey to Paris after a memorable day exploring some of France’s most celebrated castles and landscapes.
