Set out on a day-long journey, retreating from the hustle and bustle of Paris with round-trip AC transfers to explore the grandeur of 2 architectural masterpieces: the Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte and the Castle of Fontainebleau.

Journey through time

Vaux-le-Vicomte, a 17th-century marvel, was commissioned by Nicolas Fouquet and inspired the construction of the iconic Versailles. Explore its stately rooms and cap your experience with a breathtaking view from its dome. Dive into its intriguing past with an optional audio guide or a riveting 3D surround-sound experience on 'The Fouquet Affair'. Add a dash of fun to your visit with costume rentals for children, allowing them to step into the shoes of the castle's past inhabitants. Experience the tranquility of Vaux-le-Vicomte's meticulously designed French gardens, offering a serene escape amidst symmetrical layouts, fountains, and greenery, perfect for unwinding and rejuvenation.

Royal retreat

Post-lunch, continue your historical journey at the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Castle of Fontainebleau. With over 7 centuries of continuous royal habitation, each room tells a story of French art, history, and architecture. As you explore the castle’s vast private apartments with a multilingual audio guide, don't miss the throne of Napoleon I and the famous horseshoe-shaped staircase. Finally, unwind in the castle's vast park surrounded by 3 picturesque gardens, a true testament to France's famed landscape design.
