Loire Valley Road Trip: 3 Days of Castles, Vineyards and MICHELIN Dining
"For a memorable view of Chenonceau, this boat operator glides you along the river to take in the château’s mirror-like reflection; you can also opt to pilot an electric boat yourself for the same enchanting vantage." - Jennifer Ladonne
Excellent explanation offered in English and superb value for money. Would have happily joined the joint cruise on the larger boat but opted for the electric one at €43 for an hour, which was the perfect amount of time. Fantastic views and great fun. Would go back without a doubt.
Lovely staff too - very understanding when we were slightly late back as our boat had suddenly slowed down significantly in the last few hundred metres!

Lovely short cruise down the river to and under Château Chenonceaux. English language information sheet. Limited parking available.

Beautiful and relaxing boat ride on the Gabare taking in the relaxing countryside.
The guide was obviously very knowledgeable in French and translations are provided upon boarding.
For €12 the hour long trip is well worth it with some amazing photo opportunities of the château.

Going under the chateau de Chenonceau via boat is an incredible experience. All the stories of the guide were very interesting and the humour of the guide made it even more pleasant ride.

The tour was only in French, too slow, hardly moved out into the water. If you don't know French, this isn't for you.
The view is amazing though.

Nice little electric boat, 10 minutes from Chenonceaux. Good value for money.

Electric boat hire was no fuss, and the little trip to the Chenonceau castle and back was delightful! There was little traffic on the river around lunchtime, and one hour seems to be just enough.

Great fun, especially for the kids. Boats a little slow, but at least anyone can can drive them without a boat licence.
