 Vaux Le Vicomte Tour Includes: Our Vaux le Vicomte private
tours include entrance tickets to the castle
and gardens. Private tour guide, private
transportation to and from your hotel or apartment,
taxes, tolls and parking also included.
Note: Inquire about the full-day
tour that includes a night visit of the castle
-- This tour is one of our favorites! After dark enjoy the magical chateau
grounds with its garden lit up by hundreds of candles, the mood completed with
champagne and classical music. You’ll
dine during the tour at a fabulous place in
the country with equally fabulous food.
Enjoy a private guided tour of Château de
Vaux le Vicomte with one of our excellent and
fun English-speaking tour guides. France's
most intimate and yet spectacular château,
Vaux le Vicomte is said to have inspired such
a jealous rage in King Louis XIV that he imprisoned
its owner, Nicolas Fouquet.
You’ll take a guided tour of castle’s gardens,
among Andre Lenôtre's best work – with such
splendid sights as the Carpet Parterres, the
Round Pool, the Great Water Mirror, the Confessional
Grotto, the Skillet Canal, the Cascades and
the Spray Basin. Afterward your private guide
will take you for a tailored visit inside the
château, including the Vestibule, Grand Salon,
Private and Royal Apartments, Herculese Salon,
Chamber of the Muses, Chambre Carrée and the
sumptuous kitchens.
Before returning to Paris, you’ll enjoy a short
stop at the Carriage Museum, located in the
large stables, where you will admire magnificent
old horse-drawn vehicles, brought to life with
harnessed horses, coachmen and passengers.
Note: The 9-hour version of this tour affords
you time to sit in the gardens and sip champagne
while you enjoy the view at twilight. You
will leave for a fabulous dinner after your
tour and return to the chateau at night when
the gardens are lit up hundreds of candles. Classical
music and champagne completes this night experience. However,
the night tour is a seasonal event: Friday
nights and Saturday nights during June, July
and August; Saturday nights in September and
October. Schedules to be verified
at time of booking. Dinner cost is extra.
