My family was delighted .
One of the best chateaus we've visited. Very easy to book using headout.
The ticket with the entrance to the castle made ut so much easier. We really skipped the line to validate the tickets whixh was so helpful. However you should find a way to precise which gate to go to since we got lost and we had to wait an hour for the second train to come.

I paid for the audio guide with you, but at the castle I was told that the guide is only sold on the official website. I was misled by you. What's more, the explanations on how to take the train are very poor.
We liked it very much, we did not struggle and it is cheaper in the application, everything is super good and the castle is the most beautiful, something different to visit when going to France.
Ticketing was confusing - should explain - no separate tkts for train & Chateau - had to hope we had what was needed - all worked ok but was uncertain. Explain free shuttle from train to Chateau
The shuttle (included in the ticket) was absent, and no information was available. The people at the Château knew nothing about it. We had to walk.
