Fontainebleau & Vaux-le-Vicomte Trip with Local Guide & Private Transportation
Overview
Just a few miles away from Paris hide the mesmerizing chateaux of Fontainebleau & Vaux-le-vicomte. They harbor some of the greatest treasures of French architecture, art & history. Let us take you to these two magnificent properties in a fun & comfortable day trip from Paris.
Fontainebleau is famous for being the last residence of Napoleon Bonaparte before his final exile. It is He who named it “The true home of Kings, the house of Ages”. A favorite Summer home for 34 Kings and 2 Emperors over 800 years of our history!
Vaux-le-vicomte on the contrary is the most astonishing private residence ever built! Dreamt by sir Nicolas Fouquet to amaze King Louis XIV, this property has become a legendary site and the inspiration for the palace of Versailles.
Most people would miss these incredible sites as it’s not easy to get there. Our full day trip from Paris comes with private transportation in comfortable A/C vehicle, local guide expertise and all entrance fees!
