Reviews
It was a fantastic and fun filled experience. The chateaus were a delight to our eyes. The decorations, the lights, the colours, the Christmas trees were all mesmerising. This tour guide did a fabulous job in explaining each and every detail to us. Full marks to the guide and to the tour. Such an unforgettable and a soul stirring experience- without any doubt whatsoever.
I subscribed to the audio guide which was not too helpful as it was difficult to follow the sequence. But it did provide some useful background so is still better than wondering on your own. o dun like to follow a guide as I prefer wondering at my own pace so audio guide is still the best choice. All the 3 chateaus are very pretty and expcially Chenenceau on the water. My only complaint is there is really not enough time to visit the castles in details. we are given 1.5 hrs for 1 castle or 2 hrs but including lunch. I guess they wanted to make it back to Paris by 7pm.
Thanks to our kind guide and comfortable, pleasant transportation, we were able to visit the beautiful French castles with ease. Even if a traveler doesn't understand English well, the guide clearly communicates what time to return, so I think this tour would be great for non-English speakers too. Highly recommended!
although the weather was rainy and windy, I enjoyed the tour, Nati our tour guide was very caring and gave us lots of interesting information, her attentiveness was very much appreciated. thank you, nati. I wish to join the tour again on a sunny day!
This trip was well worth it, especially for seniors and friends who enjoy visiting castles. We originally planned to only stay in Paris, but we made a special day trip to the Centre-Val de Loire region. Along the way, we saw beautiful, simple rural scenery, which was a nice change from the bustling scenery of Paris!
The on-board staff were friendly and responsible, the experience captured the atmosphere of the French countryside, and each of the three castles had its own unique charm. It was the Christmas holiday season, so the Christmas decorations were luxurious and beautiful. The drive wasn't too long, making it a worthwhile trip.
we have booked audio guide tour. Although the overall experience with the tour agents is great, had some issues with the audio guide as it requires good mobile network and getting one inside castles is difficult.
The bus ride is very comfortable, and the tour guide introduces the castles seen along the way on the bus. The visiting time for each castle is about an hour and a half, which may not be enough to explore all the castle gardens in detail, but it is enough to visit the inside of the castle and take pictures. It is suitable for people who want to quickly collect three castles in one day.
The castle is very beautiful and you can enjoy the scenery along the way. Because there are three castles, the time is tight and you have to queue up to buy food, so you need to pay attention to the meal time.
The schedule is well-paced, with 1.5 hours allotted for visiting each castle.
