After arriving in Fontainebleau, you'll have the freedom to visit the famous Chateau before continuing on to Provins, where you can discover this medieval French town, all at your leisure. Meanwhile, your driver will wait for you nearby, ensuring a stress-free return trip.
With its high walls and even higher towers, its easy to see Provins is special. In the 13th century, Provins was one of the European centers of commerce, regularly hosting important fares since the town was located on a commercial crossroads. The newly-gained wealth was reinvested into the town, local real-estate, and its fortifications. The good times don't last forever, and when war and plague befell the city in the 14th century, it fell into a slump. Not much has changed since then, so today, visitors can take a trip to past centuries and admire the medieval walls or the stunning 13th-century architecture throughout the small town of Provins.
Chateau de Fontainebleau offers a more authentic royal residence experience than Versailles, having served as home to French monarchs for eight centuries. During your 3-hour visit, you'll see the only remaining throne room in France, the magnificent Renaissance Ballroom, and Napoleon's apartments. Unlike other castles, Fontainebleau displays a range of decorative styles from Medieval to Empire, showing how the palace evolved through different royal dynasties from Francis I to Napoleon III.
Provins, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is one of the best-preserved medieval towns in France. During your 2.5-hour visit, explore the imposing ramparts surrounding the upper town, climb the 12th-century Caesar's Tower for panoramic views, and visit the underground passages (Les Souterrains) that once served as storage spaces and secret meeting places. Don't miss the 13th-century Tithe Barn and the romantic Provins Rose Garden showcasing the town's famous medicinal roses.
Both locations offer seasonal attractions worth timing your visit around. Fontainebleau hosts special exhibitions in the Napoleon Museum throughout the year. Provins features medieval shows from April to November, including falconry displays at the Eagles of the Ramparts and theatrical performances at the Roses Theater showcasing medieval combat and horsemanship. The Rose Festival in June and the Medieval Festival in June are particularly lively times to visit Provins.
Fontainebleau is approximately 70 kilometers (43 miles) southeast of Paris, with a driving time of about 1 hour. Provins is located 90 kilometers (56 miles) southeast of Paris, about 1.5 hours by car. The distance between Fontainebleau and Provins is approximately 50 kilometers (31 miles), or about 45 minutes driving time. Your private Daytrip driver handles all transportation, allowing you to relax and enjoy the scenic countryside of the Île-de-France and Seine-et-Marne regions.
In Fontainebleau, try the town's eponymous dessert, Fontainebleau a light mousse-like cream cheese sweetened with honey or sugaror sample regional Brie de Meaux cheese. Provins is famous for its rose-based productsincluding rose honeyrose candyand rose tea at the Maison des Provinciales. Also try medieval-inspired treats like hypocras (spiced wine) and fouees (bread pockets filled with local ingredients) at restaurants in the historic center.
If you're interested in nature, the Fontainebleau Forest surrounding the chateau offers 28,000 hectares of protected woodland with marked trails. It's world-famous for rock climbing on its unique sandstone boulders (a sport called bouldering). Your driver can arrange a brief forest stop before or after your palace visit. The formal palace gardens designed in part by Andre Le Nôtre also provide beautiful outdoor spaces to explore during your 3-hour visit.
This day trip works well for families, with engaging activities at both destinations. Fontainebleau offers dedicated children's audioguides and periodic treasure hunt activities. Provins' medieval atmosphere appeals to children, especially the falconry show and the opportunity to climb the ancient tower. The underground tunnels of Provins add an element of adventure. Both locations have open spaces for children to run around, making this day trip less confining than museum-focused excursions.
