Overview

Much more than just an excursion from Paris, this day is a private and fully personalized experience in the heart of the Loire.

You will discover three emblematic castles Blois, Amboise and Chenonceau with your own Guide, who will bring you back to their history. You travel comfortably in a private vehicle, without the constraints of a large group and with the freedom to adapt the pace of the day to your desires: take more time in a garden, enjoy a viewpoint or take a photo break.

The experience is also distinguished by an authentic immersion in the wine traditions of the Loire: a tasting in a historic family vineyard passed down for more than five centuries, to meet those who cultivate and sustain this terroir.

A day designed to combine royal heritage, French art de vivre, landscapes of the Loire and wine discovery, with the attention and flexibility of a truly private experience.
