Tickets were easy to buy and saved a small queue. Parking was easy. The walk to the castle stunning. The castle was well presented inside and out. The paper guide and the exhibition were very helpful and informative. Lunch in the cafe was great and the gift shop was worth a visit. The best part for us on a beautiful day was the parkland and river. The rose garden and the trails especially by the river. As we left we discovered the stable area but the donkeys were missing ( probably sheltered from the heat. Overall a great day out. And I'm sure if we came back we'd discover more. Good value.

Hard to imagine from below, but the Château Royale d'Amboise is really beautiful. The Histopad provides further insights into the history of the castle and vividly presents the various inhabitants. The garden is also beautifully laid out.

Convenient to book all the tickets. Surprised Chambord needs to pay additional fees for the audio guide device but Amboise no fees required for the guide device. Would have been better if the guide device is included for all the tickets
