One day, two famous French châteaux from Paris, with audio-guided rooms and formal gardens at Vaux-le-Vicomte and UNESCO Fontainebleau.
“Travel and tickets were arranged very well. The timing mentioned in the plan was followed to the dot. Over-all, I really enjoyed the trip. I would recommend the same. 🙂”
Fontainebleau and Vaux-le-Vicomte in one day from Paris. Luxury coach, audio tours, dome views, and 700-year royal history.
“The transport was prompt. Both destinations were not over crowded as most of the city. The audio tours were informative for both locations.”
Two royal chateau highlights from Paris in a small group, with fast entry, smart pacing, and iconic interiors at Vaux-le-Vicomte and Fontainebleau.
“This tour of Fontainebleau and Vaux Le Vicomte was exactly what we were hoping for—and better in some respects. Our guide was a very knowledgeable young lady named Brune, who grew up in the area where the chateaux are located. Our small group met early in the morning and Brune drove us out to Fontainbleu in a very comfortable minivan. We had plenty of time to tour the palace. The included audio guide was very helpful. Afterwards we picked up a quick lunch and headed on to Vaux Le Vicomte, where there were less people to the point that we often had rooms to ourselves. It was incredible to walk…”
Small-group day trip from Paris to Vaux-le-Vicomte and Fontainebleau, with French gardens free time, audio guides, skip lines.
“The tour was the best we took in France. Our guide was great. The chateau were even better than expected.”
Vaux-le-Vicomte day trip from Melun with Chateaubus transfer, 3D sound audio guide, and time in gardens plus carriage museum.
“The visit of the castle was fantastic. The time schedule of the bus transfer was not clear at all between week and weekend. Wee took a taxi finally to get from Melun rawly station to the castle, paying then twice for the same route.”
Private Paris day trip to Fontainebleau and Vaux-le-Vicomte with hotel pickup, entry tickets, skip-the-line access, and garden time.
“This was lovely. Our guide was friendly and interesting. We enjoyed talking to a local and learning more about France during our time with him. It was so great to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel. His car was clean and nice. Also he gave us a great restaurant recommendation I Paris. We will definitely book him for other trips next time we come to Paris!”
A private 2-hour guided visit to Château de Fontainebleau, with skip-the-line tickets and expert storytelling of royal and Napoleonic rooms.
“We had an amazing guide who had previously worked at Fontainebleau and shared so much of her historical knowledge with us! This was the highlight of my vacation to Paris!”
Private day trip from Paris to Fontainebleau and Vaux-le-Vicomte, with skip-the-line tickets, an expert guide, and time for lunch.
“My friends and I had a wonderful private tour of these establishments on Monday 23rd September, 2024. Andy proved to be an excellent guide for the Palace of Fontainebleau. And he was so very personable, giving us the feeling that we were in the company of a friend. Following lunch in Fontainebleau, Andy’s wife drove us to the beautiful Chateau de Vaux-Le-Vicomte. Sandra was such a delight, being both insightful and informative throughout our tour. All in all this was an exceptional tour. Don’t hesitate to make a booking.”
Private skip-the-line day to Fontainebleau and Versailles, with hotel pickup, audio guides, and time in the gardens.
“The driver (Andy/Andi?) was on time, and he made getting around easy. He communicated as well as possible (our lack of understanding of French did stand in the way some, but he did an admirable job). He was very accommodating to our schedule, but I feel like this tour was misadvertised. This is not a guided tour. He took us to the buildings and then we did a self-guided tour with headsets while he walked through the rooms with us. The trip was advertised as having a “driver-guide,” but he was truly more of a driver. Both of these palaces are well worth seeing - they are gorgeous and have…”
Vaux-le-Vicomte candlelit 3-course dinner by limousine, 2,000-candle gardens, golf cart time, chateau visit, fireworks.
“Wir wurden pünktlich mit einem Mercedes vom Hotel abgeholt und zum Schloss gefahren. Dort hatten wir für ca eine Stunde einen Golfwagen zur Verfügung, um uns den Schlosspark anzusehen. Danach hatten wir einen Rundgang im Schloss mit Audioguides und später dann war das Dinner mit Feuerwerk im Anschluss. Was sehr positiv aufgefallen ist, dass wir immer betreut wurden. Wir wurden von jeder Etappe des Abends von jemandem abgeholt und zur nächsten hingebracht. Nie mussten wir rumrennen und irgendwas nachfragen, die Organisation war sehr gut. Was etwas besser hätte laufen können, war dagegen unser Essen, doch das lag dann wirklich ausschließlich an unserer Kellnerin, sie wusste nicht so recht, was...”
Private half-day to Fontainebleau from Paris with Vaux-le-Vicomte, the Royal Palace, and a forest stroll, plus a comfy driver ride.
“We paid for a "tour with a local", for Fontenbleu, $528 for 4 of us, but only had a ride. No tickets, no audio, no guide. This was a misrepresentation. We paid about 5 times more than a taxi ride, which is essentially what we got. CHEATED is how we felt, and we will use a different company next time.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
