Overview of your Amboise tour:

There’s something undeniably majestic about Amboise. Maybe it’s the way the château rises above the Loire like a crown of stone, or the fact that so many French kings (and one very famous Italian genius) called it home. Every time I guide here, I feel like I’m stepping into the pages of a Renaissance novel, filled with intrigue, ambition, and human brilliance. With me, you'll hear the stories behind the facades: the young François I, Leonardo da Vinci’s final days just across the hillside, and the unforgettable events that shaped the early French Renaissance. I’ll take you beyond dates and names to reveal the very human side of history. And if you’re in the mood for some royal gossip or a few good tips on local treats after the tour… I’m definitely your person. Let’s explore the château d’Amboise together with curiosity, good humor, and a few surprises along the way!
