Versailles lies about 17 kilometres from the centre of Paris, and Zeus Prestige brings your luxury car rental in Versailles to your hotel, a private address in the Notre-Dame or Saint-Louis quarter, or an airport nearby. A convertible suits the Chevreuse Valley, a prestige car the road to Chartres, and a sports car the run north to Chantilly.
In 1623 Louis XIII built a hunting lodge on a hill in the woods here. Louis XIV later enlarged it into a palace, and on 6 May 1682 he moved the court and government in for good. Versailles stayed the unofficial capital of France until 1789, and UNESCO listed the Château and Park in 1979. The palace holds roughly 2,300 rooms, and the Hall of Mirrors shows 578 mirrors facing 17 windows.
About 84,000 people live in Versailles today. The Potager du Roi, a kitchen garden created under Louis XIV to feed the court, still grows fruit and vegetables, and the park covers 815 hectares, with 93 hectares of formal gardens. The Grand Canal, dug between 1668 and 1671, runs for 1,500 metres. Beyond the town the roads lead into woodland valleys, Gothic cathedral country and the old estates of the north.
Lower the roof for the valley of the Yvette. The regional park here was created in 1985, covers 256 square kilometres and spans 51 communes. The town of Chevreuse dates from the 10th century and keeps a castle begun in the 11th. Nearby, the Château de Breteuil stands 35 kilometres south-west of Paris and remains in the hands of the Breteuil family. In 1881 the Marquis Henri de Breteuil received the Prince of Wales and Léon Gambetta here, a meeting the château links to the start of the Entente Cordiale. Birdsong and the smell of cut grass drift through the open cabin.
A prestige car suits the quiet road to Chartres, about 80 kilometres south-west of Paris. The cathedral was built mostly between 1194 and 1220, and UNESCO listed it in 1979 as a masterpiece of High Gothic. Around 152 of its original 176 stained glass windows survive. The two towers rise to 105 and 113 metres, the taller one crowned with a Flamboyant spire, and a labyrinth from the early 1200s is set into the nave floor. Inside the car, the leather smells warm and the cabin stays hushed.
Sports cars earn their keep on the run to Chantilly, roughly 50 kilometres north-north-east of Paris. The Musée Condé inside the château holds one of the finest painting collections in France, strong in French works and illuminated manuscripts of the 15th and 16th centuries. The Duc d'Aumale left the estate to the Institut de France in 1889. The Great Stables house the Living Museum of the Horse, and André Le Nôtre laid out the formal gardens for the Grand Condé. The engine note rises through the gears and your pulse follows it.
