Six-Night Trip to Paris and the French Countryside

Located 45 miles (73 km) outside of Paris, the Château d’Esclimont looks every bit the Renaissance-era palace, complete with pointed turrets, moats, and ponds spread out across 150 acres (60 hectares) of wooded grounds. Yet it was actually built a few centuries later, in the 1800s, by the aristocratic Rochefoucaulds. Inside, traditional guest rooms are fit for a king. They feature luxurious floral wallpaper, chandelier lighting, and cathedral ceilings.

Whether you embark on the six- or eight-night vacation in France from Great Value Vacations, you’ll spend a portion of your trip at the Château d’Esclimont. Its central location in the countryside near Paris makes it an ideal base for day trips. Guests are free to explore the surrounding area at your leisure via a manual-shift rental car.

Paris lures visitors with storied landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, and the Louvre. But the city’s lesser-known gems are equally enticing. On the Left Bank of the Seine, you’ll find the Musée d’Orsay, home to one of the world’s largest collections of impressionist paintings, including a number of works by Monet, Manet, and van Gogh. You can stroll through the picturesque Parc de la Villette or pop into Sainte-Chapelle for a glimpse of its famous stained-glass windows.

Farther outside the city, the 17th-century palace of Versailles is an over-the-top stunner. On guided tours, you can peek inside Marie Antoinette’s bedroom, walk down the Hall of Mirrors, and inspect the king’s Grand Apartments. Be sure to allot enough time to stroll around the palace’s famed gardens and extravagant fountains. Farther out on the grounds, the Petit Trianon—built specifically for Marie Antoinette as a retreat from stuffy palace living—is a fanciful storybook cottage filled with dainty rooms and surrounded by walking paths.

Eight-Night Trip to Paris and the French Countryside

The eight-night vacation follows a similar itinerary as the six-night version. However, travelers spend only spend three nights at the Château d’Esclimont before moving on to spend two nights at the Château Fort de Sedan, which overlooks Sedan’s historic fortress. The final three nights are spent within the City of Lights at the Hôtel Jules in Paris.
