Val de Loire: Weekend Excursion
Authored By:
Bonjour tout le monde! This weekend we had the opportunity to leave the city life in Paris and see some of the countryside on the way to the Loire Valley. Our groups were able to visit two spectacular castles, Château de Chambord and Château de Chenonceau. Students were able to learn about each castle through interactive audio guides. We also experienced some local cuisine in the region, including dining next to a castle while watching hot air balloons pass by!
