Full description
Discover the essence of the Paris region through a day full of elegance and sophistication as you explore two of the area's most exquisite châteaux. Your adventure begins at our meeting point in central Paris, where we look forward to taking you on a journey through time and historical grandeur. Set off at 9:15am for a unique experience that will take you to two iconic destinations: the impressive Château de Fontainebleau and the majestic Château de Vaux le Vicomte.
Our 1 hour and 15 minute drive will take you through the picturesque countryside to the first destination of the day, the renowned Château de Fontainebleau. A historical gem spanning seven centuries of royal and imperial residence, this castle has witnessed the evolution of history from the 12th century to the reign of Napoleon III. Its architectural style fuses medieval, Renaissance and classical elements, a testament to the influence of various monarchs on its construction. As you immerse yourself in this marvel with the help of a guided tour, you will discover richly furnished rooms and unique treasures, such as the throne of Napoleon I and the famous horseshoe staircase, an architectural jewel that amazes visitors.
You will also have the opportunity to explore the château's spacious private flats, which have played host to kings and queens throughout history, providing a captivating insight into court life. After this immersion into past splendour, you are invited to enjoy some free time to explore the vast parkland and three picturesque gardens surrounding the castle, adding a natural touch to your experience.
After a delightful day at Fontainebleau, we will continue our journey to our next destination: the Château de Vaux le Vicomte. Just 45 minutes away, this magnificent castle, a masterpiece of 17th century classical architecture, awaits you with an even more intriguing history. This château and its lush gardens were created under the artistic influence of three talented individuals: the landscape architect André Le Nôtre, the architect Louis Le Vau and the painter and decorator Charles Le Brun, all collaborating under the patronage of Nicolas Fouquet, a high French official and superintendent of finance to Louis XIV.
Immerse yourself in Fouquet's private flats, majestic state rooms and intriguing vaulted cellars as you follow the tour with an audio guide, providing an enriching and immersive experience. The 3D commentary will transport you to a bygone era, allowing you to hear conversations and court scenes that will add depth to your exploration.
Once you have completed your immersion into history at Vaux le Vicomte, you will be free to enjoy a stroll through the stunning French gardens that stretch across 35 hectares. Sculptured shrubs, water features and multi-coloured flowerbeds make up this magnificent landscape, providing you with a relaxing atmosphere to close your experience.
Finally, your day will culminate with a scheduled departure from Vaux le Vicomte at 5pm, returning to Paris around 6.30pm. A day full of history, stunning architecture and natural beauty will leave you with indelible memories of the Paris region at its finest.
