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 .

A chateau that spans the Cher from one bank to the other... This is the main feature of this chateau. Surrounded by very flowery gardens, you constantly want to press the shutter button to take just one more photo... The sky was blue, dotted with small white clouds that made the chateau stand out even more...

There was no line at our arrival time. We purchased tickets easily online on the day of our visit. The gardens were lovely. Beautiful flowers inside and out. Appreciated English version of information. The booklet explaining each room was very informative.

Hello, we had a wonderful time in this chateau with its splendid gardens, and all of that before entering the chateau itself, which features beautifully furnished rooms. We stayed there for more than three hours, including our lunch break.

Easy-to-use interface, ticket price matches the standard public price, and tickets are valid until 2018 (incredible!). No time slot restrictions for the visit, unlike what is required on the official Château de Chambord website.

We went to explore the Château de Chambord with my girlfriend and we simply loved it—the exterior of the castle, its gardens, and then the interior, which is also magnificent.

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.

Chenonceau Castle

Visit Château Chenonceau, an elegant white castle built on the piers of an old mill in the famous Loire Valley region. Chenonceau is a stunning representation of late Gothic and early Renaissance architecture, featuring a long gallery bridge that spans over the Cher river.

Chambord Castle

Explore the Chambord Castle and get a glimpse into the French royal life of the past. A major highlight of your visit here would be the famous double helix staircase. Inspired by Leonardo da Vinci, the open staircase is designed in a way that you can go up one side without meeting or making eye contact with someone who is descending on the other side! Your ticket also gives you access to more than 60 rooms open to the public and to temporary exhibitions (according to the cultural program of the time). Moreover, you can explore the castle's grand gardens, home to a vivid range of flora and fauna, at your own pace.
