  • Take a full-day excursion from Paris by air-conditioned coach, and see how French kings and queens lived for centuries
  • Explore the royal and imperial château in the heart of the forest of Fontainebleau, and witness the dome of Vaux le Vicomte castle
  • Soak up the history with an audio guide tour of the châteaux and gardens and dress the family up in costume!

Leaving central Paris in the morning, you'll soon be on your way to the very château that inspired King Louis XIV to build Versailles. Enter the 17th-century Vaux le Vicomte and imagine the sleeping French nobles and the bustling cooks in action as your 3D-sound audio guide takes you around Nicolas Fouquet's staterooms and the château's giant kitchens and cellars.

Outside, explore acres and acres of sculpted bushes, glistening lakes, and bright flower beds in bloom – it's French romance at its finest. Take a picnic and eat on the grass, or opt for the Vaux le Vicomte restaurant.

After lunch, it's time to explore the only royal and imperial château that's been inhabited for seven centuries, Fontainebleau.

Explore the royal touches from medieval to renaissance and classical styles, and don't miss Napoleon I's throne and the famous horseshoe-shaped staircase. If you've opted to dress up in costume, this is the perfect moment for a selfie!

The Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is a wonderful place to lose yourself in this country’s remarkable history. It’s a miniseries in the making. It has an intriguing story with a dark and tragic end. The Château is remarkable and lovingly restored. The vast gardens a joy to investigate. I had a wonderful morning.
I would have liked another hour at the Château de Fountainebleu. I became obsessed with the interior and would have liked to spent more time in the gardens. Nevertheless, I had a very memorable day. The staff in all locations were friendly and very tolerant of my lack of French. A great day!
