Your adventure begins with a visit to the 'Azay le Rideau castle, a remarkable example of Renaissance architecture constructed by a secretary of King Francis 1st.

Spend time wandering through the meticulously arranged variety of plants, herbs, vegetables, and water features, all perfectly complementing the castle’s architecture. Your guide will regale you with fascinating tales, such as how the château's origins trace back to a 14th-century keep where negotiations between France and England took place, and its later acquisition by Napoleon Bonaparte as a gift for his brother.
