Magical!

Seeing the chateau exterior and grounds lit with 10,000 candles was magical. The gourmet dinner is served at a leisurely pace and lasted about 2 hours. We had the 8 o’clock seating. We explored the chateau for about an hour, and then we came out on the back terrace at 11pm just as the fireworks started. Seeing the inside of the chateau light up was interesting too since most chateau yours are during the day. There is a recorded audio guide provided.
It was nice to have door to door service. There would be no way to get to the chateau on public transit. It was about an hour and 20 minutes away from Paris. Overall it was a very unique experience that was worth the splurge.
Magical Evening!!!

Very nice evening. The grounds from the parking to the castle does not give a good first impression.
Romantic evening by candle light.

I booked this trip with a friend so we could surprise our wives on our last night in Paris. It was quite a hit! Our guide, Oliver, was amazing he put everything together from transportation, and dinner reservations at an amazing restraunt, to champagne before the fireworks display. It was an unforgettable evening.

Pleasantly surprised!
We came to Chateau de Vaux le Vicomte to revisit this castle that we had already visited when we were younger (we loved the visit and had very good memories of it)
We completely rediscovered the castle for the audio guide tour with the candles in addition to the gardens also with the candles and the great fireworks.
We were blown away by the beauty and magic that candlelight brings at night.
The fireworks are magnificent.
We stayed more than 4 hours for our entire visit and the time seemed so quick that there was so much to see.
I recommend 100%.
A little extra, the recordings with the audio guide in the castle immerse us very well in the heart of the renaissance and the absolute reign of King Louis XIV.
If you have never heard of Nicolas Fouquet, the castle will allow you to know everything about this character!
Enjoy your visit ☺️
