great guide, the tickets...
great guide, the tickets were sold out so this was the only way to get in. This ticket does not cover the garden so that will be an extra expense. I thought the tour was just enough information to leave with new knowledge without making us super bored or tired.

Great combination of information, tour, and independence and exceeded expectations. Great tour guide.
We have toured Versaille once before but this tour was so much better and exceeded all our expectations. The tour was perfect for our family that included some who were active and others who were physically challenged. The tour guide also provided a wealth of great history and amazing information that entertained everyone in our group. Was a perfect combination for everyone in our family.

Highlight of our visit to Versailles
This tour was a highlight of our visit to Paris and so glad we took the train to Versailles. Our guide, Andrea, was funny, informative and kept us safe and moving through the fascinating village and hamlet. Seeing the village, gardens and surrounding areas of Versailles would have been impossible if not on bike and we are so glad we chose this way to see it. We had enough time a the end of the bike tour to walk through Versailles. Andrea walked us to front of line, so very little waiting which was welcome in the heat. We thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend!

Our tour guide, Leticia,...
Our tour guide, Leticia, was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and always found us a great place to stand to listen to the history she was sharing. We had a tour of the palace and then had tickets to the Gardens and the Hamlet included. Unfortunately, we were there during the extreme heat so we weren’t able to go to Marie Antoinette’s estate due to an early closure, but no one could control that. They reimbursed us for this tickets very quickly. We truly enjoyed the tour and our guide.

Great tour, still very in depth even though it was a 3 hour tour, could listen for hours!
Anthony was an amazing guide, he took us through the main rooms of Versailles and on a garden golf cart tour. It's clear he loves this space and everything around it, he was so knowledgeable and gave such detailed history behind the art pieces, rooms and different spaces of the gardens. We really loved our time with him.

Very comprehensive tour
There is a lot of walking!! And it lasts the whole day — which was worth it. I got to see so much more than just the main chateaux and garden.
Our tour guide was Sarah and she’s fantastic. She took excellent care of our group and despite the large crowds inside, I still got to learn a great deal.

The golf cart tour at...
The golf cart tour at Versailles was an amazing experience and a fantastic way to explore the vast gardens. Riding through the grounds made it easy to see so much more than we could on foot while still feeling relaxed and immersive. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared fascinating history, hidden details, and great stories about the estate. It was well organized, comfortable, and perfect for taking in the beauty of Versailles at a leisure pace. I highly recommend this tour and would absolutely do it again.

A perfect day in Versailles
Julian was an amazing guide. On our way to Versailles he made excellent use of time and media to set the stage for what we were going to going to experience. Our tour had just the right amount of detail and we got to see everything we hoped to and more. He also researched a restaurant in town that offered vegetarian options which was important to us.

A Highlight of Our Paris Trip – Outstanding Versailles Tour
Our guided tour of Versailles was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Paris. Gustavo was an exceptional guide—extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the history. He didn’t just recite facts; he brought the stories, people, and events of Versailles to life in a way that made the experience unforgettable.
We walked away with a much deeper understanding of the palace, its history, and the lives that unfolded there. Gustavo’s storytelling made everything feel vivid and meaningful.
I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Versailles, and especially recommend Gustavo as your guide. An outstanding experience from start to finish.

Thank you!
Helena was on time and very friendly! She had good knowledge of the area and listened to our wishes and desires of what to see and what to do. She gave us a good overview of what we wanted to see in Paris in a short amount of time. Our driver, AMIR was an excellent driver and got us through very tight traffic jams in some of the city squares and roundabouts. Thank you very much.

A must book if you are in Paris!
Our tour guide Toby was phenomenal! Super knowledgeable and full of stories; not only for the tour but also about the town and culture! He went our pace, athletic, and it was amazing! He took photos of us, and gave us extra inside knowledge on other things around the area and our future plans!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
While many people spend an entire day in Versailles, you’ll be able to see a fair bit of its historical attractions in only half a day, particularly if you sign up for a half-day tour of Versailles that will show you the highlights efficiently, often with the support of a guide. For added time-saving convenience, tours usually include skip-the-line access to the palace and gardens, and some include round-trip transportation from Paris, too.
