To lunch on the terrace of the Orangery on the grounds of Chenonceau... To watch the lights of Amboise Castle from a table at Le Shaker on a tiny island in the Loire... To shop the Sunday Market... To experience a few wine tastings...You will stay in charming Amboise and venture out from there by train to five of the most exquisite of the valley chateaux: Amboise, Blois, Chenonceau, Chaumont and Chambord. You will dine under the stars, across from the castle wall... And marvel at models of Da Vinci's inventions at his mansion home for the final years of his life, gifted to him by his friend and admirer, the 16th-century Renaissance King, Françoise I.With the detailed "Day Pages" in this Great Trip Guide, you will know what to do and why, how to do it and when.
