Loved the chateau and all the rooms. It was great to see displays in so many rooms which helped make it come alive. It would have been fun to see some mention of the Chambord liquor made in the town of Chambord somewhere near the exit of the chateau

It was a great visit to Chateau Chambord. Easy entry with headout app/tickets. The process was very easy from start to finish and saved a huge amount of time because we did not have to stand in a line.

The castle is a gem that, like Narcissus, gazes at its reflection in the water, surrounded by the colors of its gardens. The kitchens are gorgeous and make you feel like you've stepped back in time. A real gem worth visiting.

Chambord Castle and Amboise were great; smooth visit. An iPad is provided for the tours and included in the admission price. On the other hand, at Chenonceau, the iPad costs €5 even though admission to the castle is the most expensive of all! Plus, it's hard to get around when several groups of 30 people arrive at the same time! There should be specific time slots for groups for better organization. Too bad, because this castle is interesting and the g

Booking was very easy. That way, we were able to get inside quickly, without any waiting time. A remarkable castle with lots of rooms to see, all beautifully decorated as well—a truly wonderful experience.

For flower lovers , the outside gardens were lovely but the flowers highlight were the original , highly artistic ,fresh arrangements , that dressed every room. They themselves were spectacular .

It was a spectacular visit because of its grandeur, its state of preservation, and how beautiful everything is. I was also surprised by the accessibility of almost all the rooms—there are very few areas restricted to the public, and I managed to transport myself back in time and imagine myself as the lord of the palace... hahaha. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

The Chateaux Chenoncaux is truly a very special look into an ancient time of French nobility. The ambience is so delightfully soothing and engaging. The gardens and surrounding grounds are beautiful and relaxing. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit and would heartily recommend a visit to this enchanting estate.

Hassle-free entry, but the castle's audio guide, which was very heavy and bulky, is terrible and completely useless. Otherwise, this castle is unique for its architecture and the elegance of its spectacular roof!!!

Discover two very different expressions of French Renaissance grandeur, from a château spanning a river to a vast royal residence crowned with towers and chimneys.

Chenonceau Castle

Getting started

Arrive at Chenonceau Castle and present your ticket at the entrance. After entry, explore the château at your own pace.

What to expect

Known as the Ladies' Château, Chenonceau owes much of its character to influential women, including Diane de Poitiers and Catherine de' Medici. Its elegant architecture stretches across the Cher River, making it one of the Loire Valley's most distinctive landmarks.

Features

Gallery over the Cher: Walk through the château's long, window-lined gallery, built above the river on a series of graceful arches.

Royal interiors: Discover richly decorated chambers featuring period furniture, Renaissance tapestries, and historic paintings.

Remarkable history: Trace the influence of the women who shaped Chenonceau, from its architecture to its royal legacy.

Chambord Castle

Getting started

Head to Chambord Castle and use your skip-the-line ticket to bypass the ticket-purchase queue. Security checks may still apply.

What to expect

Commissioned by King Francis I, Chambord is a monumental Renaissance château celebrated for its distinctive roofline, elaborate architecture, and ingenious central staircase.

Features

Double-helix staircase: Discover the château's architectural centerpiece, where two interwoven staircases allow visitors to ascend and descend without crossing paths.

Royal rooms: Explore more than 60 rooms open to the public, including furnished royal apartments, galleries, and impressive vaulted spaces.

Temporary exhibitions: Explore rotating displays that add new perspectives on the château's artistic and historical heritage.

Renaissance architecture: Admire an extraordinary skyline of chimneys, turrets, and towers that makes Chambord instantly recognizable.
