Excellent Tour Guide Aty for Amazing Locations - This tour was so fun. Our tour guide Aty (Ady?) was great. She was very engaging with the group and told funny stories and wonderful facts about the Loire Valley Chateaus. She was very clear in letting us know how the tour was broken down. The sites we went to were beautiful. Would highly recommend as part of your vacation. Plenty of time to explore the castle grounds.
