An important settlement since Gallic times, under the Roman empire the city became an important metropolis, and was home to one of the five largest amphitheatres in the empire. In the 4th century, the city’s bishop was St. Martin, a connection which made it a major centre in the Middle Ages. Today, this rich medieval history is still preserved by the beautiful 12th to 15th century half-timbered houses in the historic center. The city’s cathedral received a 15th century Flamboyant Gothic makeover, covering every inch of the exterior with ornate ornamentation. Inside, along with a beautiful organ and vibrant stained glass windows, visitors can see the tombs of the children of Charles VIII. Next door are the cloisters of La Psalette, one of 85 National Monuments in France, which feature elaborate stonework in an impressive mix of architectural styles.

Daytrip est apprécié dans le monde entier. Voici pourquoi.
Chateau d'Amboise offers spectacular panoramic views of the Loire River from its elevated position. During your 3-hour visit, explore the royal apartments featuring Gothic and Renaissance architecture, see the Chapel of Saint-Hubert where Leonardo da Vinci is buried, and walk the extensive gardens. Don't miss the innovative mechanical displays showing miniature court life and the impressive Minimes Tower housing a spiral ramp designed for horseback access to the castle.
Tours serves as the gateway to the Loire Valley and offers a perfect complement to Amboise. During your 3.5-hour visit, explore the beautifully preserved medieval center (Vieux Tours) with its half-timbered houses, visit the magnificent Gothic Cathedral of Saint-Gatien with its flamboyant facade, and stroll along Rue Colbert for excellent shopping and dining. Tours provides authentic French city life with fewer tourists than Paris and a rich architectural heritage spanning Roman times to the Renaissance.
Amboise is approximately 220 kilometers (137 miles) southwest of Paris, with a driving time of about 2.5 hours. Tours is an additional 25 kilometers (15.5 miles) beyond Amboise, adding roughly 30 minutes to the journey. The total round-trip driving time is about 5-6 hours, making this an ambitious but rewarding day trip. Your private Daytrip driver handles all transportation, allowing you to relax and enjoy the scenic Loire Valley countryside between destinations.
If you're interested in Leonardo da Vinci, Clos Luce is definitely worth including in your Amboise visit. Located just 500 meters from the Chateau d'Amboise, this manor house is where Leonardo spent his final three years at the invitation of King Francis I. The museum displays working models of his inventions, his living quarters, and beautiful gardens showcasing his engineering and botanical interests. Allow 1-1.5 hours for a visit.
The Loire Valley is famous for its wines, particularly white varieties. In Amboise, look for local Touraine-Amboise appellations featuring Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc wines. Tours offers excellent wine bars where you can sample regional specialties including Vouvray (sparkling and still white wines) and Chinon (elegant red wines made from Cabernet Franc). Consider a quick visit to the Maison des Vins de Loire in Tours to taste a variety of regional wines in one location.
For an optimal experience, start early (7-8 AM departure from Paris) and begin with Amboise, arriving around 10-10:30 AM. Spend 3 hours exploring the Chateau d'Amboise and consider adding Clos Luce if time permits. Have lunch in Amboise at a local restaurant, then continue to Tours for the afternoon and early evening. This allows you to experience Tours' lively atmosphere and perhaps enjoy dinner before returning to Paris, maximizing your day in the Loire Valley.
The Loire Valley is known for its gastronomy. In Amboise and Tours, look for local specialties like rillettes (similar to pate), fouace (a traditional bread), and Loire River fish dishes such as sandre au beurre blanc (pike-perch in white butter sauce). The region is famous for its goat cheeses, particularly Sainte-Maure de Touraine. For dessert, try tarte Tatin (upside-down apple tart) or nougat de Tours (a marzipan and fruit cake). Markets and bakeries offer quick local treats if you're short on time.
