The royal city of Saint-Germain-en-Laye is known for its history, as evidenced by its superb château, national estate and Le Nôtre’s magnificent terrace overlooking the Seine valley and its city center. Proud of these cultural treasures, Saint-Germain-en-Laye is also a place of great culinary inspiration, so here’s a fun day trip idea combining the two themes.

Next time you’re in Paris and want to avoid the typical tourist route, take a day trip to Saint-Germain-en-Laye. The town is only 20 kilometres west of Paris and 15 km from Versailles.

It couldn’t be easier to travel from the City, as it takes only 20 minutes on the RER A line from Paris direct to the terminus of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, opposite the château. As we live only five minutes away and as voluntary Ambassadrice for this Royal market town, I’m proud to present it as part of my series on gourmet day trips from Paris.
