Departure for Chartres
9:45 a.m.
Arrival in Chartres. Chartres is much more than its cathedral. Everything can be done on foot: within minutes, modern streets give way to cobbled lanes, half-timbered houses and quiet squares, until the Cathedral of Notre-Dame appears. Its scale is impressive, and inside, the light of the stained-glass windows creates a unique atmosphere.
Then walk down to the banks of the Eure: old wash houses, small bridges and gardens give the town a fairy-tale feel, with plenty of terraces to take a break.
Free day
