Chambord: An exceptional château, and a very nice guide who challenged the simplistic view of the relais de chasse, which, when you read the facts, doesn't hold water. A great time. A must-see!

Impeccable service, no need to change tickets, barcode reading right at the entrance, no lines. Recommended.

Buying the tickets online was easy and saved me from standing on a long, slow moving, ticket line. I bought them right outside the ticket office.
Chambord was very busy and I could not enjoy the chateau as much as in the past due to time constraints. Next time I will plan better.

We got in without any problems by skipping the queue at the ticket office. When purchasing you have to choose a date but the validity of the tickets is longer (it is written on the confirmation email, although sometimes it doesn't match what it says on the website). We had to change our plans and use some tickets on different days and had no problems.

The garden, the stairs once you understand what makes them so special.
Sleeping in the parking lot with a camper for 12?
You can arrive comfortably in the evening and start the next day right away. Perfect

What was the best was that we had "skip the line" status for our tix so we didn't have to stress over when we should get to the chateaux! Would do this again in a heartbeat!

Chateau de Chambord - what can you say that hasn't already been said? Great experience, history, architecture, good gardens, good food, good facilities.

Spectacular, the most beautiful castle I have ever seen. We toured the entire castle, including the 2 gardens and it took us more than 3 hours. An incredible experience.

Beautiful castle, wonderful garden. Only problems the difficulty of parking and its price, and the huge crowding.

The thread-cutting tickets are very practical and avoid queuing, especially for CHAMBORD, where there are a lot of people waiting in front of the ticket office.
For free admission for children, it's now possible to go directly to the château entrance to collect their ticket, and then pick up the histopads at the same time.
Despite the crowds, traffic flows smoothly through the château (even on August 15), and it's perfectly possible to take a picnic lunch in the grounds around the château.

Superb, splendid setting inside and out in glorious sunshine, with no waiting at reception.
A must for any visit to the Loire castles.

Smooth traffic flow in the Chateau de Chambord despite the crowds. It was great!
Not so good, however, for one of the bar-restaurants, where we waited for a good 20 minutes, even though the crowd was very moderate. We ended up leaving without being served.

Lovely castles, practical combined ticket except that for my son we had to make an additional ticket to Chenonceau as it said on the website that kids did not pay.

Practical and fast. You get to the castles with the ticket already on your smartphone Without several going to the ticket office.
There is also a discount on the packages. Tip.

My opinion is only "acceptable" because it's the least I can do to ensure that my visit went smoothly.
I would have been delighted if something extraordinary, something unexpected had happened, which was not the case.
What's more, the price of the tickets was the same as those sold on site, and as the queue wasn't long, I wasn't able to make use of the "line cutter".
What can you offer me financially so that I can say goodbye to a normal service?
In a few days' time I'll be receiving another review for another visit, for which my assessment will be very negative.
See you soon.
Best regards.

Chateau Chambord is assome. Wow! Beautiful place, beautiful gardens and a lot to see. We bought tickets online and therefore we could skip the line! And just walk right into the castle

Direct entry to the tour, BUT we were not given the tour plan.
The Chateau de Chambord is an architectural marvel, and the visit was very pleasant, manageable at my own pace, and not too crowded.

Hello,
This review is only meant to be constructive and certainly not a repository of frustrations.
There are explanations in every room. It's perfect. Not too long, not too short. Just what you need to understand a particular place. However, we deplore the lack of directional arrows for a logical direction of visit and indication to go into the gardens. In spite of everything, we enjoyed the place without too many worries, despite the vacation period.
But also...
Some members of the security service, although attentive, were perhaps a little too prescriptive. We came with children to a tourist attraction, not a nuclear or military site.
Audioguides were no longer available, but those who had them paid absolutely no attention to other visitors, as if they were alone in the world.
In principle, the carts are a good idea. But in the end, walking around the castle is just as stressful as being in traffic in a small town. Even as a pedestrian, you have to be constantly on the lookout for electric cars and bikes, which go far too fast for the circumstances.
Keep up the good work!
