This magnificent Renaissance and classical royal château was home to 34 kings and 2 emperors for nearly eight centuries.

Day 3: SAINT-MAMMES - CORBEIL-ESSONNES
Morning optional excursion: AUTHENTIC / EXPERIENCE: Moret-Loing-et-Orvanne, a charming village on the banks of the Seine, and the Château Rosa Bonheur. This medieval town, rich in history, will captivate you with its ramparts, Bourgogne Gate, and Notre-Dame Church, all testaments to its strategic role in the Middle Ages. Favored by the kings of France, it became a hub of art in the 19th century thanks to Alfred Sisley, who immortalized its landscapes. You will wander through its cobbled streets, admire half-timbered houses and picturesque mills. Continue to the Château Rosa Bonheur, the residence of the famous animal painter. There, you will discover her preserved studio, works, and creative world. Surrounded by tranquil gardens, this place offers an immersion into the art and life of this exceptional female artist.
Afternoon cruise towards Corbeil-Essonnes, following the Seine’s winding path. Each stop, from locks to picturesque banks, tells a story and invites contemplation.

Morning cruise towards Paris.
In the afternoon, optional excursions:
AUTHENTIC: Île de la Cité. A walking tour of Paris’s birthplace. You will admire the majestic Notre-Dame Cathedral (3) (interiors), a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. After the devastating 2019 fire, the cathedral has regained its splendor and continues to embody Paris’s history and soul. You will stroll through the charming streets of the island and reach the Sainte-Chapelle (exteriors), famous for its exceptional stained glass windows that narrate biblical scenes. Your visit will end on the Pont Neuf, the city’s oldest bridge, offering a stunning view of the Seine and its romantic quays.
EXPERIENCE: Discover Paris by sidecar. Alone or with a partner, enjoy an intimate, open-air, 360° tour.

You will explore its historical halls and French gardens, designed by Le Nôtre, featuring vegetable plots and medicinal plants.

His long career and colorful works embody the transition from tradition to modernity. From his iconic studio to his "water garden," visitors are transported by the magic of the place, the moment, and nature.
Afternoon cruise towards Paris, sailing along the Seine and its meanders. Under the ever-changing reflections of the sky, the landscapes so dear to Impressionist painters unfold. Arrival in Paris at night. Gala evening.
