- Magali's TEAM | about the guide
Amazingly, the Château de Chambord and its 440 rooms, 282 fireplaces and 84 staircases were originally used as … a hunting lodge. The Château de Chambord is one of the major highlights of the Loire Valley and our Chambord Family Tour is the ideal way to enjoy its beautiful architecture and fascinating history with all the family. Your highly knowledgeable and fully licensed guide will share with you the history of Chambord and its creator, King François I - who only spent a total of 72 nights in the château in his entire lifetime! You’ll discover the famous double-helix staircase designed by Leonardo da Vinci, admire the vast fireplaces and wander along the beautiful terraces. You’ll even find out how the Mona Lisa ended up being hidden here during World War II. Specially adapted for children and led by an experienced guide, this interactive tour will make learning about Renaissance art, architecture and history fun for all the family.

After my business studies at HEC interspersed with abroad experiences in the luxury and fashion sector, I worked for 4 years in a consulting firm before launching my dream concept: high-end tourism for families, following a request customers had, looking for activities to do in Paris with their children. By creating my own company, I could serve all my passions at once: cooking, culture and my adopted city of Paris, whose secrets I all know. London was also part of the adventure because it is one of my host cities. Having the attention for detail and quality, I offer tailor-made tours in various European destinations such as of Paris, Loire Valley, and London, Rome and Florence for families wishing to explore these places with their children in an original way and without having to worry about logistics. With my small team of passionate professionals, we developed themed itineraries in the best places, adding for each of them some high-quality activities suitable for children of all ages and interests. Visit the Louvre Museum during a treasure hunt followed by a painting course, relapse in the novel and film The Da Vinci Code with an orientation game, discover French tradition while making the iconic baguette, visit the artistic village of Montmartre while learning french, explore Rome and learn about its history through specially-designed stories, quizzes and games or discover the life of Galileo the famous astronomer and his inventions through a visit to his museum. These are few examples of our organized family tours which allow parents to spend quality time with their children.
