Exclusive private guided tour of the Château de Chantilly

Visit Chantilly castle

What can we expect?

A marvel of French heritage, this princely residence had an exceptional destiny. Its last owner, the Duc d'Aumale, son of the last French king, Louis-Philippe, was known as one of the greatest collectors of his time. It was he who donated the Château de Chantilly to the Institut de France in 1886, in the sumptuous condition in which it had survived the centuries. A guided tour will take you to the heart of French history, where you can admire the masterpieces stored there by the Duc d'Aumale. The galleries of paintings, the grand flats, the private flats and the cabinet of books have been preserved just as they were when the Prince designed them. The immense park also offers many attractions. Garden lovers will appreciate the different styles of garden: French (designed by Le Nôtre), English and Anglo-Chinese. As a family, you can watch the kangaroos and take part in the fun trail games. A private, tailor-made visit - to suit your needs - so you don't miss a thing!
