The Château de Chambord is one of the most popular castles because of its French Renaissance architecture. The building was constructed (1519–1547) by Francis I and is nowadays the biggest castle with its 440 rooms, 282 fireplaces and 84 staircases. The castle is also known because of its open double-spiral staircase. The two spirals ascend the three floors without ever meeting. Leonardo da Vinci may have designed the staircase.

Many thanks to our guide Maria and our driver Ahmed for a wonderful tour! We were absolutely delighted. Maria shared the stories with passion and sincerity, without using memorised phrases. She brought up many unexpected facts, and it was clear that she truly knows the subject and has deep knowledge of history and art overall. Ahmed also deserves our gratitude for making the trip so comfortable and pleasant! The itinerary was excellent, and we managed to see everything. I highly recommend this tour to everyone!
