In the XVI century, attracted by the beauty of its landscape, its forests, its wines, its majestic waterways, French kings and queens decided to move to the Loire Valley. They needed places where to stay or hunt. There still are 300 castles here now ! Licensed tour guide for 25 years now, I will use my experience and knowledge to explain what French Renaissance architecture is all about. I will be happy to deliver anecdotes about daily life of sovereigns and their court in our chateaux. Chenonceau, arching across the river and nestled in magnificent Renaissance gardens, was built by the king's mistress, Diane, making it the most romantic castle here. Its decorations attract a lot of visitors around Christmas. Cheverny, private chateau still lived in by the same family since the 16th century, is the best furnished chateau here. It becomes really famous at Christmas for its decorations.
