Fontainebleau Castle & Barbizon Half-day Trip From Paris

This tour was canceled due to the low number of bookings. Refund was made promptly. Merci. Next visit to Paris I will make another reservation.

This is simply a driver w/ a van taking you to Fontainblue - no knowledge of the sites, history, etc

The castle was eloquently built and preserved. The tour was Audio lead. Town was closed for the most part. Nice restaurant

Liked rooms better than the Louvre. Peaceful and pastoral. Guide spoke English, French, and Spanish. Very proficient

I thought the guide could have given a bit more information as well , the description of your said we would drive through barbizon. That didn’t happen. There was no explanation. If I had caught. Train and made my own way to fountainbleu would have had same result.

It can be cancelled at the last moment. I was given a future alternative option however I was leaving the country the next day to fly home to Australia. Hoping for a refund.

I do not recommend this tour. I decided to take this tour because the tour information says it will stop (1 hour) at Barbizon. However, the driver/guide just drove through Barbizon with a short explanation about the village and did not let us go outside the van. He said there is no time to make the stop. I complained that the information said that we stop. But the guide said back to me that they never promised that they make a stop at the village. So, we ended up only going to the castle. At the castle we were given an information device. I don't think our guide did not do much job and his main job was to drive us there and come back. On the way back from the castle he stopped by at the gas station and filled in gas. If there was no time to make a stop at Barbizon, why didn't he fill in gas while we were at the castle sightseeing. He had about two-hour downtime. I felt that the tour guide did not respect our time and money. I took another half day tour with less money but got a lot more information and enjoyed it much more.

Fountainbleu is like a slightly smaller Versailles without any of the crowds. Full van but comfortable with a helpful multilingual guide to help everyone. Didn’t know what to expect with the small town of Barbizon but I loved it. Complete opposite of Fountainbleu but equally interesting

Our tour driver Philippe was wonderful. We enjoyed his historic and artistic point of view. If you're looking to do a shorter tour to a Chateau this is ideal.

Great half day excursions to some beautiful areas. Our driver and guide was informative and passionate about French history and made the journey go super fast. It was just the right amount of time in Fountain bleu and we were back in Paris by the afternoon! Being in a small group meant we were able to move through the things that hold up a large group quickly.
