Chateau of Fontainebleau and Vaux le Vicomte 9-Hour Private Tour

Great tour of the chateaus with Corinne and Vito. Super knowledgeable and understanding of the audience and had the most enjoyable time touring the chateaus for the full day

This exclusion was one of our best experiences while in Paris! Lilite and our driver picked us up from our hotel at 8:30 in the morning in a Mercedes Sprinter van, with plenty of room. Lilite sat in the rear facing seat across from us on the journey to Fontainebleau, giving us notes and preview of what was to come. We we arrived, she quickly guided us into the palace, slipping the lines with her professional guide access. Her knowledge of not only the palace, buts rooms and long history was AMAZING! She also guided us around groups of others so we could see parts of the favorite home of Napoleon away from the crowds. Al along the way, she stopped for photo opportunities and accommodated our desire to document the wonderful trip together. After the interior tour, Lilite walked us through the grounds and gardens. Then she led us up to the city’s center and offered several suggestions for lunch. Once we made our choice to enjoy a beautiful bistro and light lunch, she left us and planned to meet when we were done. After a fantastic charcuterie and wine, we met back with Lilite and the driver and headed out to Vaux Le Vicomte. Our visit to the Vaux chateaux was wonderful. Not crowded at all, and Lilite knew everything we should take the time to explore. She even had a special surprise for us which was not available for all visitors that afforded a fantastic view and experience. Wow, what a wonderful tour! Then after visiting the gift shop briefly, we returned to the van and Lilite sat up front so that we could enjoy the drive back into Paris and our hotel, where they dropped us off around 6:00. It was a perfect day trip, and left us plenty of time and energy for dinner with our friend once we returned.

Issue to begin with because they didn’t provide a mini van. We have always had a mini van for a tour of three plus driver and tour guide. They made it happen and got us a larger car for the three of us. It made a huge difference because it was a long day driving and in the traffic. The best part was our amazing tour guide. So professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. One of my favorite from all my traveling around the world. Also the two locations were great. Loved all the stuff on Napoleon.
