Royaumont Abbey

Feel free to explore at your own pace and discover

Stop: 1 h 30 min - admission not included

Explore the peaceful ruins of Royaumont Abbey, founded by Saint Louis (Louis IX) in 1228 and once among the largest, wealthiest, and most influential Cistercian abbeys in France before its destruction during the French Revolution when anti-religious fervor swept away centuries of spiritual heritage. Walk through the hauntingly beautiful remains of the Gothic church with its soaring arches that once reached 28 meters high and rose windows that filled the space with divine light, then visit the perfectly preserved refectory with its soaring ribbed vaults, delicate columns, and remarkable acoustics where 60 monks once dined in contemplative silence according to strict Cistercian rules that governed every aspect of monastic life. Stroll through the reconstructed cloister gardens with their medicinal herbs, aromatic plants, and geometric patterns that recreate medieval monastic gardens, and discover the abbey's remarkable role as a royal necropolis where members of the Capetian dynasty were buried in elaborate ceremonies that connected earthly kingship to divine authority. The site now hosts world-class concerts and cultural events in its atmospheric spaces—check if there's a classical music performance during your visit that takes advantage of the exceptional acoustics created by medieval builders who understood the relationship between architecture and sound. Take time to walk the romantic English-style park with its artificial lakes, rare trees, and hidden paths, and reflect by the ponds and canals that once powered the abbey's mills, forges, and workshops, experiencing the profound spiritual tranquility that drew medieval pilgrims and continues to inspire visitors seeking peace, contemplation, and connection to France's sacred heritage. Visitors should verify the opening hours before visiting, as the hours are somewhat shorter in the winter months, and preview tickets online: https://www.royaumont.com/en/prepare-you-visit/visiting-the-abbey/

Chateau de Chantilly

Feel free to explore at your own pace and discover

Stop: 3 hours - admission not included

Enter Chateau de Chantilly to discover the Musée Condé, housing France's second-largest collection of ancient paintings after the Louvre with masterpieces displayed in their original 19th-century arrangement as envisioned by the Duke of Aumale who assembled this extraordinary collection as a gift to the nation. Marvel at works by Raphael, Botticelli, Poussin, and Delacroix in the opulent Grand Apartments with their period furnishings, Sèvres porcelain, and decorative arts that showcase aristocratic taste and wealth accumulated over centuries of royal favor and artistic patronage. Don't miss the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, considered one of the world's most beautiful illuminated manuscripts with its exquisite calendar pages depicting medieval life in extraordinary detail that brings the Middle Ages to vivid life through miniature paintings of unparalleled beauty and historical accuracy. Stroll through André Le Nôtre's magnificent French gardens with their geometric patterns, ornamental water features, and the spectacular Grand Canal stretching into the distance toward the forest, creating vistas that demonstrate the French art of imposing order and beauty on the natural landscape. Visit the architectural marvel of the Great Stables, designed to house 240 horses and considered among the most beautiful equestrian buildings ever constructed, now home to the Museum of the Horse with its collection of carriages, saddles, paintings, and live horses that tell the story of the special relationship between French aristocracy and these noble animals. If timing allows, catch one of the spectacular equestrian shows featuring haute école dressage, traditional hunting horn music, and demonstrations of historical riding techniques that preserve centuries-old traditions of horsemanship and the art of riding as practiced by French nobility.

Great transfer option.

I used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.

It was a fantastic trip.

We were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, we’d especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.

Best transport company anywhere

We absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. It’s worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. It’s 5 star rating is well deserved.

Excellent experience in traveling

We traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortable

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation

Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.

Daytrip never disappoints

We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.

Great driver in Egypt

Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.

Comfortable and Safe Rides in Mexico

Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.

Great way to travel and see some sights on the way

We did not know what to expect with this trip and booked from Australia. We were initially looking for an easy way to travel from Granada to Malaga. We decided not to waste the opportunity to see something additional on our way. Miguel certainly exceeded our expectations. His English was excellent (unfortunately we speak very little Spanish), and he was very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the regions as we passed through and also discussing some of the local ways. Miguel took us to Antequera as planned and ensured we were able to easily get our tickets to the attractions without any sense of rushing us. We were picked up and dropped off punctually and really enjoyed our trip. Hopefully we will return to Spain and we can use this service again sometime.

Excellent service

We used the service twice while in Thailand. Extremely prompt and efficient customer service. Best rate being offered in Chiang Mai for the travels. Polite, punctual, professional and English speaking drivers. Clean, comfortable vehicles. Being a regular visitor to Thailand, this was hands down the best service. Most pleased with the company. I hope it sustains the excellence of service that was rendered to us.
