Only the most popular chateaux in the Loire Valley have security lines where you have your bag searched. At Chenonceau the security staff are professional and friendly (and surprisingly furry...). You can expect your bag to be visually searched, scanned with a metal detecting wand and occasionally there will be a cat scan operating. We can skip the line for tickets, but nobody skips the security line. Fortunately for small groups like ours there is never more than a few minutes of waiting in the queue.
