The tour itself was great. Traveling on a Sunday there was not a great deal of traffic, so we got the maximum time at each chateau. The only thing I would change is skipping the lunch. The food was very average and too much time was lost getting to the restaurant, which took away time from seeing more of the chateau and gardens.

Not only were the castles impressive, but I enjoyed driving through the countryside and seeing all of the farm land.

This was worth spending the whole day in Loire Valley.

Very informative trip. The tour guide was knowledgeable about each of the castles, which made the tour much more enjoyable.

Fantastic! Beautiful, gorgeous countryside, lovely villages, awesome castles, a dream come true. Highly recommend, although I would have rather had a choice for lunch instead of just the salmon.

This tour was terrific. We had a big comfortable bus, knowledgeable guides and my favorite chateaux.

There was a national strike the day of our trip, which is pretty frequent in Parisian life, so I was glad that I got to see one! We didn't get to see one of the castles, but I still thoroughly enjoyed the trip! The tour guide was great, and we were immediately refunded when we returned to Paris for the cost of our ticket into the castle we were not able to view. I had a great time! I WOULD recommend not getting the lunch option, as I found a great place to eat for less money, and the people who had chosen the lunch option in my group all wished they had eaten separately. I definitely recommend taking this trip! Very beautiful. I was traveling on my own, and the group atmosphere was a fun way to meet other travelers.

The trip was lovely. Well organised, with enough time to walk around on your own. Also very easy to choose the no lunch option as there are loads of places to get lunch cheaper or just pack your own!

The three castles chosen showed different types, conditions and current ownerships to give you a broader background. Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable. I was glad that we had not signed up for the lunch as we had more time on the grounds with our packed lunch. When traveling in the future, I will look for Viator's offerings.

Definitely a great day trip from Paris. The tour guide was informative and helpful, and the castles were spectacular. Only problem was we had to leave the last castle just before "the hounds were fed" - supposed to be a highlight. But only a minor quibble!

It was simply amazing and made me realize all the more why I love France! The guides were so great, informational and energized that I ended up also booking two subsequent tours to Giverney and Versailles and Bruges, also unbelievable!

This tour was excellent. The castles were wonderful and the guide was most informative. Lunch in a small country village was very good. Highly recommended.
