More informations:

It is possible to organise a visit of the Château in Loire valley individually departing from Paris. However, there are many advantages of carrying out an excursion by minibus: you do not have to drive throughout the day, there are guides who give commentaries and the entrance tickets to the sites and lunch are included.
