Experience Two Jewels of French History

Step away from the fast pace of Paris and embark on a journey to two of France’s most celebrated castles. The day begins with a comfortable coach ride through the scenic countryside, setting the stage for an unforgettable dual-château exploration.

Start at the Visionary Vaux le Vicomte

Your first stop brings you to Vaux le Vicomte, a masterpiece of 17th-century French architecture. Explore grand salons, vast kitchens and intricate cellars as your 3D-sound audio guide reveals stories of Nicolas Fouquet and the luxurious world that inspired Versailles. As you travel through these magnificent halls, picture nobles at banquets and the creativity that redefined French taste for centuries to come.

Delight in Gardens Made for Royalty

Outside, wander through sweeping formal gardens designed by the great Le Nôtre. Lakes and flowerbeds form a living tapestry perfect for a stroll, photo opportunities, or a picnic on the manicured lawns. You’ll also have access to the panoramic dome, granting exceptional views over the elegant grounds.

A Pause for Relaxation

During your visit, you’ll have the option to dine at the on-site restaurant or enjoy the lush gardens for a picnic lunch. Take this time to soak up the chateau’s historic ambiance and vibrant atmosphere.

Discover Living Royal History at Fontainebleau

After lunch, travel to Château de Fontainebleau, the only royal and imperial palace to have been continuously inhabited for over 700 years. Each room unveils shifting royal tastes, blending medieval, Renaissance, and classical decor. Admire Napoleon I’s throne room and marvel at the iconic horseshoe staircase as you navigate expansive halls with your audio guide.

A Family-Friendly Adventure

For extra fun, enjoy a period costume rental and capture memorable photos in regal attire. The combination of history, art, and nature makes this tour a rich experience for all ages.
