A chauffeur service that runs on Fontainebleau time — the UNESCO château, the forest, INSEAD and the estates around them. Long-distance airport transfers billed on real distance, cars by the day and event service, 60 km from Paris and available around the clock.
Book your chauffeur ↗Fontainebleau has everything except easy transport. The château draws visitors from every continent, INSEAD brings executives who land at CDG with a 9am case study, and the last train from Avon leaves long before a dinner ends. Ride-hailing apps thin out fast in Seine-et-Marne — at 4:30am for a flight, there is simply nothing to hail. A pre-booked private chauffeur is how the town actually moves: confirmed in advance, priced on the real distance, waiting at your door.
Flight-tracked, door-to-door rides to CDG and Orly — billed per km on the real route, price confirmed before you ride.
A car at your disposal for the château, the forest, Barbizon or a day of meetings — see our hourly and day hire.
Weddings in the forest estates, INSEAD cohorts, equestrian weekends at the Grand Parquet — coordinated cars via our event service.
Distance is the honest fact of life here, so we price it honestly. Fontainebleau sits about 60 km south-east of Paris: count 60 to 80 minutes to the capital up the A6, 70 to 90 minutes to Charles de Gaulle (~72 km via the A6 then the A86 or the Francilienne, depending on live traffic) and 55 to 75 minutes to Orly (~55 km), the closest major airport. Your chauffeur plans the pickup on live traffic with margin built in — and on arrivals, tracks your flight and waits in the hall with a name sign, however early or late you land.
Because these are long-distance trips, they are billed per km on the real route rather than on the flat fares we apply close to Paris. The fares below are honest starting points in Business Class, Business Van and First Class; your exact all-inclusive price — tolls, parking and waiting included — is confirmed the moment you book. INSEAD participants flying home at the end of a programme module, families opening the country house for the summer, executives with a dawn flight: the routine is the same, a quiet car at the door with the timing already solved.
| Route | Business | Business Van | First Class |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fontainebleau → Paris (Gare de Lyon) | €212 | €276 | €348 |
| Fontainebleau → Paris-CDG airport | €262 | €341 | €432 |
| Fontainebleau → Paris-Orly airport | €173 | €226 | €284 |
"From" fares — long-distance trips are calculated on the real distance driven (per km), never below the class minimum, with tolls, parking and waiting time included in the confirmed price. Get your exact price in seconds on the simulator ↗
Fontainebleau rewards a full day, and a chauffeur on day hire is what makes it effortless. The classic itinerary: pickup in Paris or locally, the morning in the UNESCO-listed Château de Fontainebleau — eight centuries of kings and Napoleon's apartments, far less crowded than Versailles — then lunch in town and the afternoon in the forest: the sandstone boulders of the Trois Pignons where the world comes to climb, the gorges of Franchard or Apremont for a walk, and the painters' village of Barbizon before the drive home. Your chauffeur waits at every stop; nobody watches a train timetable. Planning the visit from Paris? Our Paris to Fontainebleau guide and château day trip pages cover the full itinerary.
INSEAD shapes the other half of our Fontainebleau diary. The boulevard de Constance campus brings executives, professors and MBA participants from every continent — most landing at CDG with no idea how far Seine-et-Marne really is. We run campus transfers daily, hold cars through interview and assessment days, and coordinate multi-vehicle service for cohort arrivals, company visit days and graduation weekends, with the 7-seat Business Van doing the heavy lifting for luggage. Programme organisers and companies open a business account for monthly invoicing and priority booking; terms are quoted per account.
Then there is the Fontainebleau of occasions: weddings and receptions in the forest estates and châteaux-hotels, where our event service coordinates several cars and drivers in matching standard; competition weekends at the Grand Parquet, the equestrian stadium at the edge of the forest, where riders, owners and guests need moving between stables, hotels and dinners; and the owners of the town's discreet second homes, who want the same vetted chauffeur for the Friday drive down and the Sunday drive back, in any season.
Fares are calculated on the real distance driven, never below the class minimum. As a guide: from €212 to Paris Gare de Lyon, from €262 to CDG and from €149 to Orly in Business Class. Day hire and events are quoted at booking — the simulator gives your exact price in seconds.
About 72 km and 70 to 90 minutes depending on traffic, via the A6 then the A86 or the Francilienne. We schedule the pickup on live traffic and track your flight; the transfer starts from €262 in Business Class.
About 55 km and 55 to 75 minutes via the A6 — Orly is the closest major airport. From €149 in Business Class, calculated on the real distance and confirmed before you ride.
Yes — daily transfers between the boulevard de Constance campus and CDG or Orly, cars held through interview and seminar days, and multi-vehicle service for cohort arrivals and graduations, with business accounts for organisers.
Yes — your chauffeur collects you in Paris or locally, waits during the château and gardens, and can add the forest, the Trois Pignons climbing sites or Barbizon in the same day. Day rates are quoted at booking.
