The horse-riding in the Forest of Fontainebleau was absolutely wonderful. I am actually a beginner rider but I was still able to try a bit of trot thanks to our horse-riding guide who was very reassuring, as well as knowledgeable of the surroundings’ history. We were truly surprised by the Château de Fontainebleau, that was, if I may say, as grandiose as Versailles but much less crowded! A special mention to the restaurant’s chef who prepared us some delicious duck, perfectly paired with a Bourgogne Wine.
