Shuttle was no where to be found after arriving at the melun train station. Went to the pickup up point and waited, finally I asked a bus driver, and he said “it’s not running today due to Easter Monday”! We ended up taking an Uber! Would like to be refunded for the transportation portion, please! Palace was beautiful!

Interesting house tour. No crowds, on a day when Versailles was packed. Having golf carts for the huge gardens was fun for the kids.

The visit to the Chateau itself was excellent. There were no large crowds so we really got to enjoy the rooms more intimately. However, the restaurant is HORRIBLE. Le Relais de l’Écureuil served pitiful-looking food (fish & veggies) that was literally slopped on the plate. It reminded me of dorm food. It was inedible in my opinion, luckily I had a pack of biscuits in my bag which is what we ate instead. The pitiful-looking food wasn't cheap either. I paid 18 euros if I'm not mistaken. Advise: bring your own lunch!

I visited in the summer and really enjoyed the audio tour, which gave a great history lesson about the castle and also France. I stayed for the fireworks, and it was worth it. The chateau grounds itself is very big. I recommend taking a picnic blanket and a picnic, so you can stop & rest during the walk around the gardens. It is beautiful. I took the train + shuttle to the chateau and then took the bus that went directly from the chateau to one of the Gares in Paris. Because it was so late at night, it might have been the only public transportation option — and as it was convenient, I recommend that option. Exchanging the shuttle bus ticket with them was not a problem at all.

The chateaux can be reached by rail from Gare del’est. The Chateaubus meets the train at Vermeil L’Etang. The well-preserved rooms and the tremendous gardens are a site to see. Highly recommend a visit.

It was an interesting place, well worth the trip, with carriages the family used, lots of outbuilings we couldn't go into, and of course, in the winter, the famous gardens were bare, tho still well demarcated with hedges. I had a receipt on my phone to show to get in, but they wanted to charge me for the recording one takes to each station to hear the info in ones native tongue. I thought that was included, but I couldn't get internet there, hence the list of what was included. The lady called, and was told it wasn't included. It would be nice if that was listed on the receipt, or whatever it was on the phone that let them know I'd paid.

I think the Xmas decorations were a hindrance to really seeing the castle, and really weren't that spectacular. The trip, we were told, was about 4 and a half hours, but by the time you get to the train station, onto the shuttle, see the castle, etc, It's more like six.

I liked it.

Très joli château, la visite audio guide est très très bien faites ✅. Le restaurant est plutôt bon et les prix du restaurant restent bon malgré que ce soit dans l’enceinte.

Les casques pour la visite ne fonctionnent pas très bien. Obligation de changer 3 fois de casque. Jeune homme pour la location des voiturettes très désagréable, limite de l'incorrection. Cadre magnifique qui est gâché par des intervenants très moyens.

Castello e giardini ben tenuti a 60 km da Parigi. Molto interessante la storia dall'invidia del Re Sole per la grandezza e la fastositá degli arredi da oscurare Versailles. Molte stanze hanno ancora arredi e parati originali. Interessante anche la ricostruzione delle cucine. Parcheggio gratuito Prezzo molto abbordabile la visita come pure il selfie sevice interno dove abbiamo pranzato.

Très bon moment a partager. ATTENTION le billet navette a 27€ (22€ pour le billet chateau plus soiree aux chandelles) ne comprend QUE la navette d'une heure ...

Payer 59€60 pour une chasse aux œufs soit disant la plus grande de France ! Parcours en trois étapes le temps d être bien crevé mais motivée pour les enfants qui souhaitent pouvoir accéder à cette fameuse chasse ! Pour au final leur demander d encourager les parents courir pour ramasser 5 œufs en plastique ! Le butin un sac avec 5 œufs taille de caille -((( et 2 pitchs Pasquier Une arnaque pure et simple le pire c’est de voir l’état et la réaction de nos enfants après ça! Un conseil acheter vos œufs pour 60€ c’est bien plus que 5 œufs de caille que vous allez leur offrir en plus de partager un moment rien que pour eux

Quel beau château , prendre le temps de passer la journée,il y a tant de belles découvertes....entre l'intérieur,les jardins......
