Model of the Renaissance traditions, the Chenonceau Castle is an architectural masterpiece.

Transfer to Château de Cheverny ...
The Cheverny Castle is the private property of the Vibraye family. During this visit, you will admire its wonderful 17th century furniture. Before leaving, take a walk through the gardens and discover the kennels. The castle is also well known for its inspirational setting on Hergé's famous Moulinsart castle in the Tintin comic book.
You will finish your day with the visit of the Castle of Chambord
Considered as the largest and most majestic castle of the Loire valley, Chambord Castle was commissioned as a hunting lodge by François I. However, he only spent 42 days of his 32-year reign in this royal residence. The 365 chimneys, 440 rooms, 14 staircases and 800 turrets and capitals give an insight of the magnificent period architecture. The main attraction remains the intricate "double revolution" staircase designed by Leonardo de Vinci.
