- Want to visit beautiful old castles in the French countryside while you're in Paris? Even if you've only got a day, it can be done! Come join me on my day trip to the world renowned Loire Valley, a UNESCO world heritage area home to over 300 of these magnificent castles, known in French as châteaux. Visiting this region is like stepping into a fairytale, filled with architectural wonders ranging from imposing medieval fortresses to breathtaking Renaissance castles and palatial country estates. The Loire Valley is quite large and can easily take multiple days to fully explore all of the picturesque towns and the breathtaking splendor of the châteaux but I only had a single day to visit, so I'll share my trip logistics, give you my thoughts on experiencing this region in just a day trip, and take you on a small tour of the 3 châteaux I visited - Chenonceau, Amboise, and Chambord.

Loved the content. I'd love to visit the region but I'm still searching for a cheaper excursion as you said it's a bit expensive. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, this particular option was a bit pricey for just a day trip. You can absolutely find cheaper options though that will still take you to 3 châteaux, you’ll just likely be on a much larger bus with a big group. Definitely try to spend more than a day here if you can, but if you just have one day then it’s absolutely worth it! Good luck finding the right tour and whenever you get to the Loire I hope you have a lovely experience!
I went to the Loire last year and stopped to look at Chenonceaux. It’s a beautiful structure! Wish I had taken a closer look but was short on time 😅
Next time then! It’s so iconic, I hope to visit it again in the future with my good camera to get some beautiful shots.
@@daradventures that will be awesome!
@@daradventures love France. I live in the Channel Islands (Guernsey) have you heard of our island? Well worth a visit 😀
@@Trickydog1978 I have! Never come across anyone from there though, you're the first! We actually have our own Channel Islands here as well, off the coast of Southern California - I imagine our islands are quite different 🙂
Beautiful, thanks for sharing! lovely castles
Glad you enjoyed! It’s a beautiful region.
