Ohhhhhh, the lights, the fireworks in the night, that was so beautiful. I felt like I could smell the summer air as it became evening. This will be a MUST when we come! I am so happy you went and had a friend to go with. So glad you are there sharing this with us!!! Thanks so much Jay :)
Merci bien. I love this video--the palace is quite enchanting and hearing Charles Trenet/ La Mer made me so happy. I think I will play a lot of French music this afternoon!
Sherrie Shatzen - I made this mix for my wife and I when we went last year. If you want to dance around the place to French music. www.mixcloud.com/Jackpot070707/la-dançaise-je-taime-one-hour-of-french-language-songs-and-french-bands/
!!! I love that place. I was a guest of the Count who grew up there a few years ago (Alexandre de Vogüé - he is lovely) who has such passion for the chateau and for keeping it alive. Never got to see the candles though!
Nice video. It must also be noted that the castle is a private property and not a national monument. The De Vogüé family keeps this castle alive all year long and the Christmas decorations are, for example, magnificent.
Thanks for the great tip. This place is soo much better than Versailles!! No crowds, you almost feel like you have the place to yourself. We went on a Saturday with the fireworks and candles, amazing!!
Thanks for the chance to visit V le V again! We went to Paris last November and toured this beautiful chateau and estate. Well worth the effort of getting there. I love Paris and can't wait to return soon. Appreciate all you do to let us live vicariously through you, Jay!
Went here at Christmas 2016, it's amazing! And then we caught Donald Sutherland and Gene Wilder film START THE REVOLUTION WITHOUT ME and realized it was shot there!!
Fancy schmancy!! I’m so glad you missed the bus to see the chateau lit up and those fireworks! So worth it!! 🌟🌟🌟 It looks a billion times calmer and more enjoyable than Versailles. I wish I’d known about it back in the day. 👍🏼✌🏼
Wow! I did not know about this Chateau,so glad you’ve told us about it! It’s so beautiful....and no crowds! The music was great; I love the Dyalla music that sounds like Edith Piaf.😍 Hope you got home ok.🚌
These fireworks are better than the ones in my neighborhood in the Bronx, NY. The only exception is that it starts two weeks before July 4th and ends in the first week of August.
That was the most beautiful video you have ever shot! At one point I felt like you were in the Beauty and the Beast movie! Magical! I am so glad that you missed the bus! So how did y'all get back home? Or did you just move in? If so I am coming to visit! You can put me up right? And will you introduce me to the Beast?
Makes me think of the Biltmore in Asheville, TN with their Candlelight Christmas except really French, actually old and real candles! Another great Paris suggestion from Jay Swanson!
Hahaha, very amusing. Jay showing after effects of fete de la musique, totally worth it. Loved the grammar check, made it even more better. Awesome sauce! Thanks Jay!!!
I just love your vlogs! We’ll be daytripping to Paris from London July 4th and I’ve learned so much from watching your videos! Thanks for sharing your love of such a beautiful city :-)
As someone who has been to both, as Jay says, this is a more human sized, better crafted chateau. I'm sure you will have a great time, I would highly recommend this over Versailles except if you are a huge fan of French gardens, then go for Versailles first. Have a lovely time in Paris!
Versailles is beautiful but you will miss the whole point of visiting Versailles if u dont have a brief idea of the stories in Versailles and brief history about the place before u visit it. Also a lot of people miss out on the Trianon which are more enchanting for me than the main palace
How did you get back to Paris after missing the bus? Over a week ago it wasn't that easy going back to Paris from Versailles since the train I got on did not leave after all and had to go to another station, I followed the crowd 🤣.
I was wondering what would happen if you missed the bus?? I’m glad you missed it, love the fire works. So going there in October to check out the Château!! I did Versailles in December and wanted some more of this type of exploring. Thanks Jay!!!
That was gorgeous!! Great to know about the audio guide. Thank you Miss Laura for planning this trip!! Mr Jay looks like he had a little too much fun at the music festival!! 😂😂 Have a Great Day!!😁
Beautiful place, looks far more interesting and doable than Versailles. I think it reopened last year after a multi-million euro refurb & it looks like money well spent. I noticed that the station you left Paris from had trains to Provins. Another worthwhile day trip for history fans, the old part is a walled medieval town with ramparts.
There is something to be said to not follow guides. Time and again I wonder why people fall for it, but I suppose it feels 'safer'. It is not for me, better to be curious and experience it, like a dish where both the ingredients and how it is made comes from tasting. Ah well, to each his own.
@@JaySwanson I know, guidance helps both the public AND what is shown, simply because it flows better through the building itself. Oh and less work for those in charge 😉
Hola Jay, muy buen video, tengo unas preguntas que quisiera que me respondiera, como hizo para regresar al metro?, para el 28 de mayo abra tambien espectaculo de noche? y como se llama la cancion que coloco al inicio del segundo 10 al 30? gracias un saludo.
Bonjour. Je suis japonais. J'aimerais aller au Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte l'été prochain et le voir illuminé aux bougies le soir. J'aimerais aussi voir des feux d'artifice, mais j'ai entendu dire que les feux d'artifice commençaient à 23 heures. Est-il possible de revenir à Paris à partir de cette heure-là ? J'ai du mal car je ne connais pas grand chose à la France. merci.
Beautiful editing! You keep getting better and better. The French television program "Secrets d'histoire" did a show about Nicolas Fouquet, the person who built Vaux-le-Vicomte and was thrown in prison by Louis IV: th-cam.com/video/fSuihqEZiCQ/w-d-xo.html Unfortunately, I cannot find a version with subtitles.
@@bookswithb2684 There used to be a version on TH-cam with French subtitles, but unfortunately it has been removed. "Secrets d'histoire" has a TH-cam channel, so the show may reappear someday. The show has been on france.tv, but to see it from the US you have to use a VPN with a server in France, and there are still no subtitles.
Jay, you should allow one of your friends to do your channel for one day ;) the day in the life of a None-TH-camr ?? What do you think ? Like Laura or another GF there ?then at the end of the day she meets you for dinner and you take your channel back. Probably a crazy idea 💡Maybe your patrons can vote on who ?

Wow, gorgeous chateau!
I love it

It's fantastic - gotta enjoy it before the crowds find it =)

Well worth it!😁
That’s was beautiful !
Thanks!

That's awesome! It's so worth a visit =D
Well done! This is a must for the next visit. Also, Charles Trenet was a nice touch.
😁
Hey Jay, amazing place! 💖 Which one's better, this château or Versailles? The lack of huge crowds is definitely a plus for me.
A huge plus
Fancy schmancy!! I’m so glad you missed the bus to see the chateau lit up and those fireworks! So worth it!! 🌟🌟🌟 It looks a billion times calmer and more enjoyable than Versailles. I wish I’d known about it back in the day. 👍🏼✌🏼

You're energy. It's a lot.
This is on my list now! Very nice. Now I’m curious to know how you got back! Lol
Thankfully there was one last overpriced bus 😂

I absolutely agree
Candles everywhere, how not to miss the bus. It is so beautiful there.
Not a bad spot to get stuck 😂
Wow! ♥️♥️♥️ The flowers are so beautiful!!! Love it!
It's really nice
Makes me think of the Biltmore in Asheville, TN with their Candlelight Christmas except really French, actually old and real candles! Another great Paris suggestion from Jay Swanson!
😊😊😊
Nicholas Fouquet was the owner...per google and the 2nd most expensive wedding in recent times was held there...thank you Wikipedia!!!
He was indeed 😊
Very timely Jay... I'm in the market for a small summer cottage. THANKS!
That was STUNNINGLY shot kiddo!
Haha, this one should be right up your alley then 😉 And thanks!
It looks amazing. It’s going in my top 5 for my next visit to Paris. Hopefully they do candle nights every year.
I hope they keep it up too!
Hahaha, very amusing. Jay showing after effects of fete de la musique, totally worth it. Loved the grammar check, made it even more better. Awesome sauce! Thanks Jay!!!
Haha, definitely a little, but more the after effects of the last two months 😂
Great place! Looks like you enjoyed music night!
Always!
Absolutely beautiful editing. Loved this.
Thanks!
Jay, that was great! Love love loved it. THANKS SO MUCH!
My pleasure!
😌😌😌Great there was a bus! Fantastic castle! 👍😍
😁
Fantastic as always, Jay! I hope you could start using more French language in your vlog! I’d love to learn new words for when i move to France! :)
Thanks!
That was lovely! Thank you.
And how are your mom and dad doing?
They're doing well thanks!
I just love your vlogs! We’ll be daytripping to Paris from London July 4th and I’ve learned so much from watching your videos! Thanks for sharing your love of such a beautiful city :-)
My pleasure!
Oh my gosh! This place looks awesome. 🎆 I was just thinking that it was SO WORTH MISSING THE BUS!! Then I saw the rest, so win-win! 🎉
It worked out in the end 😁😁
Jay Swanson totally did 😊
Loved this trip. Loved the music too. Thank you this was great!
My pleasure!
@@JaySwanson Great music as usual. What is the name of the first song?
I love that kind of clip .. back from my short trip to the Baltic Sea....
It's a great way to spend some time 😊
Thank you Jay... for your answer
That place looked really amazing, loving the garden 🥰
It was phenomenal!
Gorgeous. Can't wait to see it! Thanks!
It's well worth it!
Vaux le Vicomte has been on my list for ages (sigh!) Hopefully I'll get to see it soon. Thanks Jay!
It's well worth the visit!😊
Hi! Awesome video! What song is playing at the beginning?
I think when Im back in April Ill visit here ...I didnt love Versailles ....too crowded ....as usual great vid :)
Thanks!
Fantastic Thank you
😁
This was spectacular!! Thanks for sharing!! I loved this so much! 😊
My pleasure!😊
Dide, you just get to spend more time with Laura. Well played sir.
👍👍
I'm more convinced now to see this wonderful place first than Versailles. Thank you Jay!
As someone who has been to both, as Jay says, this is a more human sized, better crafted chateau. I'm sure you will have a great time, I would highly recommend this over Versailles except if you are a huge fan of French gardens, then go for Versailles first. Have a lovely time in Paris!
Versailles is all about the grounds for sure. But it's also overwhelming 😂
Versailles is beautiful but you will miss the whole point of visiting Versailles if u dont have a brief idea of the stories in Versailles and brief history about the place before u visit it. Also a lot of people miss out on the Trianon which are more enchanting for me than the main palace
i was just watching French Gardens on netflix about this place. lovely... :)
It's really nice!
How did you get back to Paris after missing the bus? Over a week ago it wasn't that easy going back to Paris from Versailles since the train I got on did not leave after all and had to go to another station, I followed the crowd 🤣.
Crowds are helpful. There was one last late-buss that went all the way back into Paris because the trains were finished. T'was a long ride haha
Looks amazing!! I will definitely add this on our iterinary on our trip to Paris at the end of this month. How did you guys get back from Paris?
Last late bus directly into town, thankfully
Superb, one of your best. Thanks so much 🤗.
Thanks!
Ooooo I love when you use this sooooong! Also: 😍!
😊😊
So beautiful! I believe it’s the palace where they shot most of Versailles show scenes at !
It's well worth a visit!
Wow! Loved this...much better than Versailles. I have to come back the France now hah!
It was a wonderful place to visit

Unfortunately I didn't get to stay out and have *enough* fun 😂
Can you give me the names of the two songs of the dyalla, by the way your trip was great
WOW that was just beautiful. ALL. OF. IT.
😊😊😊
WOW! just... WOW!
😊🏰
Hope we get to hear tomorrow how you got home:)
Just was fortunate enough to catch the very last bus, but unfortunately a bus that went all the way into town instead of to a train
I know you missed the train that you catch via the shuttle but how much was the bus to Paris? We took the last shuttle when we were there.
I think it was 19€ but I don't remember
Beautiful place, looks far more interesting and doable than Versailles. I think it reopened last year after a multi-million euro refurb & it looks like money well spent. I noticed that the station you left Paris from had trains to Provins. Another worthwhile day trip for history fans, the old part is a walled medieval town with ramparts.
Oooh, I need more day trips 😊😊
So dreamy!!
😊🏰😊
what's the first song used?
I'm trying to find that out as well. Could you message me if you find out. I will do the same.
Hello this looks amazing, I wanted to ask to be sure that you brought your own food? And could you bring alcohol?
What's the name of the song you play in the beginning of the video and her name
That looks like a great day out! ☘️ ☮️🤘🏽🤠👍🏽☮️☘️
Twas indeed!😁😁
Formidable! 🎆🎇
Sometimes things happen for a reason. Very, very Nice ! 💛
We had a blast!

Could you have Uber’d it back if you had to? If so, how far and how much?
Nope - no Ubers that far out and it would have been *expensive*
