SENLIS & CHANTILLY - Day Trip from Paris
- Duration: 9 Hours (approx.)
- Location: Paris
A BIT OF HISTORY: Did you know that the Musée Condé, within the Chateau of Chantilly's walls, is the second largest Art collection in France ? Right after the Musée du Louvre ! Chantilly is not only a stunning Renaissance castle in the north of Paris, but also an amazing museum for Art aficionados. Pieces of Art made by Raphael, Rubens, or Poussin are waiting for your visit. Senlis is a splendid town a few kilometers from Chantilly. Nowadays, it's the city welcoming the most film shooting in France. And back in the Middle Ages, it used to be the craddle of the Capetian Kings. Hugh Capet was elected king of France in Senlis in 987.
ABOUT YOUR TOUR: Start the tour by exploring the domain of Chantilly. Skip-the-line tickets are included to enter the domain and the Musée Condé. Then, have lunch in Senlis (at your own expense), and explore the maze of medieval cobblestoned streets to discover Hugh Capet's Palace and the beautiful cathedral.
MEETING PLACE: Your private guide and your chauffeur both meet you at your accommodation address in central Paris. At the end of the tour, your chauffeur and guide take you back to central Paris.
LOCAL INSIGHT : Chantilly and Senlis are only 1-hour away from Paris centre. With our private chauffeured vehicle, this is an amazing opportunity to go off-the-beaten-path and admire a castle as beautiful as Versailles, and less crowded, and a gorgeous medieval town !
