Yes, you can use a US driver license and rent a car. Taxis in rural France need to mostly be booked in advance from what we understand and you may not find that they all speak English. There are some luxury tours that indicate that they can taylor an itinerary for you. Tour companies such as this one: luxuryfrancetours.com/loire-valley. You may find that if you stay in one of the larger cities such as Tours, you can find taxis to some of the nearby chateaux. If viable, driving is the best way to go for flexibility and to allow you to see more than just the most popular castles.
