Paris of course… but there is so much more to explore just outside.

The variety of interesting places to visit on a full-day or half-day trip will surprise you. The Palace of Versailles and its spectacular gardens are a must-see. But also, Monet’s house at Giverny and the surrounding gardens, Fontainebleau Chateau and the Barbizon village of painters, Chantilly Chateau, and many more.
