From €1199
A private day trip to the Loire Valley, home to Chambord, Chenonceau, and Amboise. Your chauffeur drives between châteaux while you explore at your own pace.
The Loire Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stretches 250 kilometres southwest of Paris and is home to over 300 châteaux. A typical day trip covers two to three châteaux: the grand scale of Chambord, the elegance of Chenonceau spanning the Cher river, or the historical richness of Amboise where Leonardo da Vinci spent his final years. Your chauffeur handles the driving between sites, drops you at each entrance, and waits while you explore. A vineyard stop for Loire wine tasting is a popular addition. The day is shaped entirely by your interests.
A private Loire Valley day trip from Paris starts from €1199. Full day with chauffeur, 2 à 3 châteaux, door-to-door. Chambord, Chenonceau, Amboise. Optional wine tasting.
