From Paris Château de Fontainebleau and Gardens Guided Day Trip Discount Tickets

Overview

Step beyond the streets of Paris and uncover one of France's most extraordinary royal treasures on a guided journey to the magnificent Château de Fontainebleau. Travel comfortably by train with your expert guide and explore the palace that served as the residence of French monarchs from the medieval kings to Napoleon Bonaparte. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Château de Fontainebleau is one of France's largest and best-preserved royal palaces. While Versailles often captures the spotlight, Fontainebleau offers an equally remarkable experience with fewer crowds, allowing you to fully appreciate its grand architecture, lavish interiors, and fascinating royal history. Unlike Versailles, Fontainebleau was continuously inhabited by every French monarch from the 12th to the 19th century, making it a unique witness to nearly 900 years of French history. Your experience begins in Paris, where you'll meet your guide before traveling together by train to Fontainebleau.
