Trip Summary
2 nights in Paris
Paris is regarded as one of the most dynamic cities in Europe, and for good reason. The city assaults the senses, demanding to be seen, heard, touched, tasted, and smelled. Gaze at impressive monuments and savor its gourmet cheeses, chocolates, wines, and seafood. Paris is relatively small as capitals go, with many of its major sights and museums within walking distance of each other. A world of discovery awaits in every hidden corner and at all the famous sites, there is so much to explore.
Visit the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame Cathedral, Jardin des Tuileries, Latin Quarter, Avenue des Champs Elysees, Musee d'Orsay, Place de la Concorde, Sacre Coeur, and so much more!
1 nights in Orleans
Only an hour away from Paris, Orleans is the capital of the Loire Valley and is famous for two reasons - Joan of Arc and the many Chateaux in the region. An important settlement by the time of the Roman conquest, the city sealed its place in history in 1429 when Joan of Arc relieved the city from attacks by the Burgundians and the English, a key turning point in the Hundred Years War. Six centuries later, the Maid of Orléans still has a powerful hold on the French imagination!
Enjoy the Parc Floral de la Source, Saint Croix Cathedral, Place du Martroi, Charlemagne Island, the historic center, the Fine Arts Museum, Hotel Groslot, and so much more!
2 nights in Blois
Blois, a hillside city on the Loire River, is a piece of living history, with cobblestone streets and restored white houses with slate roofs and red brick chimneys. Some of its 'streets' are mere alleyways that were originally laid out in the Middle Ages, or lanes linked by a series of stairs. The city is famous for its chateau, which is like an illustrated storybook of French architecture. The Château Royal de Blois is a former royal palace with ornate chambers featuring paintings and sculptures from the 16th to 19th centuries.
Explore Château de Blois, Beaux-Arts Museum, Fondation du Doute: Museum of Contemporary Art, Maison de la Magie (House of Magic), Rocher de la Vierge, Historical Museum, tour Beauvoir, take a boat ride on the Loire River, visit nearby chateaux in the Loire Valley, enjoy the many gardens, and so much more!
1 nights in Amboise
Amboise is a charming medieval town on the banks of the Loire River, fourteen miles east of Tours. Today, a small market town, it was once home of the French royal court and the birthplace of French Renaissance. Leonardo da Vinci spent his last years here. Château d'Amboise is a15th-century château, a combination of Gothic and Renaissance styles, often associated with Charles VIII. Other important sights are the Hotel de Ville dating from around 1500, the Tour de l'Horloge and the Church of St. Denis.
Explore the Château de Chenonceau, Château at Amboise, Château de Clos Lucé at Amboise, Gardens of Château Gaillard, The Domaine Royal de Château Gaillard, The Parc Leonardo da Vinci, The Gardens of Amboise, and so much more!
2 nights in Tours
Situated at the confluence of the Loire and Cher rivers, Tours is an excellent base for visiting the region's magnificent châteaux. The original home of the French language and the 'art de vivre', Tours has a modern, lively center with a thriving university. Experience the city's charm by visiting the old quarter, the cathedral, Saint-Gatien, whose flamboyant Gothic facade is flanked by towers with 12th-century bases and Renaissance tops, as well as the Touraine Wine Museum, the fine-arts museum, and Plessis les Tours.
Explore the Old Quarter and Pilgrims, Place Plumereau, Priory Saint-Cosme, Saint-Gatien Cathedral, La Psalette Cloisters, Saint-Martin Basilica, Botanical Garden of Tours, Museum of the Compagnonnage, markets, châteaus, and so much more!
