CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5It was a great visit to Chateau Chambord. Easy entry with headout app/tickets. The process was very easy from start to finish and saved a huge amount of time because we did not have to stand in a line.GGrenier M
SoloVerified booking3 weeks ago4/5Chambord Castle and Amboise were great; smooth visit. An iPad is provided for the tours and included in the admission price. On the other hand, at Chenonceau, the iPad costs €5 even though admission to the castle is the most expensive of all! Plus, it's hard to get around when several groups of 30 people arrive at the same time! There should be specific time slots for groups for better organization. Too bad, because this castle is interesting and the gJJean-pierre R
CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5Chambord Castle is a work of art in itself because of its architecture. The visit is made easy thanks to a clear, spacious tour route. Plus, thanks to the RV parking, we were able to take our time and admire the castle illuminated at night.DDebi U
CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5Loved the chateau and all the rooms. It was great to see displays in so many rooms which helped make it come alive. It would have been fun to see some mention of the Chambord liquor made in the town of Chambord somewhere near the exit of the chateau

Discover two very different expressions of French Renaissance grandeur, from a château spanning a river to a vast royal residence crowned with towers and chimneys.
Chenonceau Castle
Getting started
Arrive at Chenonceau Castle and present your ticket at the entrance. After entry, explore the château at your own pace.

Known as the Ladies' Château, Chenonceau owes much of its character to influential women, including Diane de Poitiers and Catherine de' Medici. Its elegant architecture stretches across the Cher River, making it one of the Loire Valley's most distinctive landmarks.
Features

Gallery over the Cher: Walk through the château's long, window-lined gallery, built above the river on a series of graceful arches.

Royal interiors: Discover richly decorated chambers featuring period furniture, Renaissance tapestries, and historic paintings.

Remarkable history: Trace the influence of the women who shaped Chenonceau, from its architecture to its royal legacy.
Chambord Castle
Getting started
Head to Chambord Castle and use your skip-the-line ticket to bypass the ticket-purchase queue. Security checks may still apply.
