This place is as billed. special. The entry was easy. The parking free. The building and grounds well maintained. 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 . The history of the chateau was also well laid out . Would highly recommend .

The two castles we visited were spectacular, each with its own unique features. Chambord. Inside, the video presentation—in French but completely understandable—was a highlight. The garden didn’t look as good as expected due to the heat, but the castle more than made up for it. Parking costs 8 euros. You can spend 3–4 hours there. Chenonceaux Castle. Its gardens far surpass the castle itself. It’s worth visiting just to see them. Parking is free. The castle, of course, has its own charm and is spread out beyond the central complex into pavilions such as the Science Pavilion and the Pharmacy Pavilion. There are also gardens of medicinal plants and a very well-maintained vegetable garden with water fountains for both the garden and the visitors. Both are highly recommended. And with the mobile ticket, it’s very easy to enter without waiting in line at the ticket office. However, if you want a self-guided tour, you must purchase it at the ticket office before entering the grounds.

The visit to Chenonceau Castle was simply wonderful! The castle is impressive, and its location over the water makes it truly unique. The lovingly tended gardens are also well worth seeing and invite you to take a relaxing stroll. The tickets worked without a hitch, and the entire visit was well organized. A wonderful experience and highly recommended!

The castle is impressive; you can tour it in 3–4 hours. The introductory video is particularly noteworthy, as it explains the castle’s history under the patronage of King Francis I, a great hunter and architecture enthusiast. Also worth noting is the collection of buttons featuring animal motifs, as the king was passionate about hunting. The staircase designed by Leonardo da Vinci is impressive.

Unlock the wonders of this combo ticket—explore Chenonceau Castle and one other castle of your choice. A ticket that is flexible and time-saving.

At Chenonceau, walk through the halls once graced by the powerful women of French history—Catherine de Medici and Diane de Poitiers.

Step into the valley's biggest castle—Chambord to explore over 60 rooms and climb the da Vinci-inspired double helix staircase which allows two visitors to ascend and descend simulataneously, without crossing paths.

Visit da Vinci's final residence (1516-1519) at Clos Luce, which is now restored and converted into a museum dedicated to his life, art, and inventions.

Pay homage to da Vinci's tomb at the Chapel of Saint-Hubert located within the Amboise castle. This castle was particularly favored by the French kings as a royal residence.

A very beautiful castle, though the grounds are in poor condition due to the current drought, and there aren’t enough benches in the park to rest on. Picnics are allowed, but I didn’t see any trash cans, so be sure to take your trash with you when you leave. The price, including paid parking (€21 + €8), is a bit expensive.

A stunningly beautiful castle—well worth the visit. We were in the area for just one night but didn’t want to miss this. And it was definitely worth it. The drive there, the driveway, and then the castle and the beautifully maintained gardens. In a word: amazing.

The Chennenceaux and Chambord Castle are amazing. The details, the workmanship, the horse show, the size and the helpful staff are all noteworthy. We had a wonderful time. Do not forget to rent your tablets expecially if you have kids with you.

This was my first time visiting this magnificent place... Chambord is a magical place 🧙 despite a severe drought this year, which has unfortunately left the gardens looking a bit barren... It was a unique experience, thanks to the kind and attentive staff...

It was an unforgettable experience. I had wanted to visit the castles for a long time, and I finally had the chance to do so. I really love architecture, and each castle is a fine example of the richness of French architecture.
