A fun morning - Camille was a friendly guide and I loved the gardens at both chateaux. Easy to organise and reliable service.

A few hours well spent - Our guide/driver Steeven was very engaging, professional and informative. The cost was a little pricey, but overall pretty decent value

Impressive Castle and Gardens - The word to describe it is AWESOME. The gardens, although we went at Christmas, are exquisite and powerful. The interior of the castle is amazing. Very well cared for and the visit studied in detail. I recommend visiting if you are nearby.

Excellent Day - Our guide SOPHIE was so charming fun and knowledgeable the chateaus were so beautiful. Sophie filled us in on the history of each chateau..excellent guide...a great day spent

Great Castle Tour! - Our tour guide Dimitri was friendly and accommodating. He had good knowledge of the castle history and guided us seamlessly through the day. The castles were extraordinary. The half day was a nice compliment to our full day the day before. If you are wanting to learn more about castles in the Loire Valley and how the people lived during that time - This is a great tour!

Great tour of smaller castle and gardens - Great tour! Guide was very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable. We had a very fun and relaxing time while still learning something.

Certainly worth a visit - A very pleasant trip despite the weather.The château was enjoyable and the gardens of Villandry were special indeed.Cami was a friendly and knowledgeable guide who allowed us to practise our poor French with great patience.Although a wet day we still enjoyed our visit.

informative and entertaining - The guide was extremely informative and entertaining and we enjoyed the half day tour very much. We felt that it would benefit from an extra hour to allow visiting of D'Azay-le-Rideau village main street and seeing the beautiful Villandry gardens, hence only 4 stars.

Château great, gardens good but meh - Azay le Rideau is magnificent. The chateau and its position are beautiful. The guided tour was very interesting and the restoration of the property allows a better understanding of the skill in construction. Villandry gardens are beautiful sure, but we would have preferred to skip Villandry and spend the extra time at Azay le Rideau.

Outstanding tour leader Maryann and breathtaking castles - Maryann our group leader was A++++ outstanding. She was friendly, knowledgeable, humorous, a safe driver and top notch in every way. I cannot commend her more for the job she did in guiding our adventure. The two main castles were amazing and must-see sights…. almost unimaginable. The van was clean and comfortable to ride in. The time in the van was very tolerable for this big sightseeing trip as it was broken into small pieces going from place to place. That said, the time allowed at the two big castles was way too short! We had to rush on our free time to see just a few of the optional sites at each castle. And felt like we really got shorted on this experience. The needed extra time at the big chateaus would have been easy to add by removing the 3 hour visit to the small chateau where we had a very small, modest, unmemorable lunch. We appreciated seeing how a small privately owned chateau that is not funded by the government pales in comparison to the more glorious French funded chateaus but I would have gladly given up this one part of the day to have more time at the two big chateaus. This shortcoming was not Maryann’s fault, this was the fault of the planning by the tour company. In all, a wonderful opportunity to see the French countryside and two amazing chateaus but too little time to see more of them.
