I went on this tour with my family, and it was amazing. We started with the classic French croissants that were delicious! Afterward, we visited Chambord Castle, which was stunning; it is really big and has a lot of history. Later, we had our first tasting in a really nice domaine, and here, we also had a fabulous visit. We finished with another tasting in another domaine that was also incredible! In addition to this, we must say that our guide went above and beyond when it came to explaining everything to us about this wonderful region and wine in France! Honestly, I really recommend this tour. It is amazing.
