Celine was a wonderful tour guide (driver too). Her knowledge of the history of each Château was so helpful and Interesting. Our group of 7 was perfect size for maximizing our time at each. The fabulous meal, wine, and setting at the Château was brilliant.

It is a nice trip if you don't have too much time. Our guide Nicholas was very good. The 3 castles are very interesting. It is time enough to visit. Unfortunatelly is no time to see the small towns and villages you pass through, which are really nice. But for only one day, it is a good choice. The only problem we had was when we came back in Paris, with the transfer to the hotel, but it was solved by the agency.

This tour is highly recommended. The driver and the guide are both professional. Travelers will surely get an excellent service from the Tour Company.

Actually the tour is quite rush as we need to see 3 castles within a day. Though it is a 12 hours tour, after deducting the time for breakfast, lunch and travelling including the travelling between the castles, the actual time we spent on visiting the castles is around 4 hours only. But I believe it is really worth to go as the castles are really beautiful. The only thing we feel sorry is we do not have enough time to see more. If you have adequate time, join a 2 days tour.

Loved this tour- John andI picked the Amboise optional- our tour guide was very good- the van is cramped when it is full please consider having two less persons for comfort. It is a full day well worth doing this tour. The lunch was good, we did hotel pick up and drop off which made the tour extra special. Very much enjoyed.

Our guide did not speak to us for the long hours out to the first castle nor for the full ride back to Paris. He played his music on the radio and spoke briefly at each property. His driving was reckless - as he sped and cut off other drivers. The castles themselves are great to visit but it could have been much better with someone guiding us that wanted to do a good tour. Our guide was uninterested.
