From charming villages to grand estates and museums, the department never runs out of reasons to get out. To plan your getaway, our guide on que faire en Seine-et-Marne highlights the best addresses to discover all year round.
Before you head out, a quick check is in order: several RER, Transilien and metro lines will be affected by maintenance work, as detailed in our transit disruptions update for 19 et 20 septembre 2026.
