What are people saying about Versailles

teddydunstan, Jun 2026

An interesting, informative and entertaining your

Our tour guide, Véronique, was pleasant, friendly, down-to-earth, and very knowledgeable. She explained not only the history of the development of Versailles, and the complicated lives of the aristocracy (shown in the many paintings), but also the ornate and sumptuous rooms (wow, the ceilings!) and their collections of artefacts. Our group of 20+ was quite large, but thanks to the tour guide audio system we were all able to follow her monologue easily, in spite of the noise. Versailles was absolutely heaving (hence the racket!); more so than usual apparently. It turns out that the day before our visit Versailles was closed to the public because Trump was there! What a waste of a day :-/ Very interesting tour though. Thank you Véronique for such an informative afternoon! After the tour, there's still the Versailles gardens to explore - and they're enormous! You could easily spend a day just walking round them and the surrounding parkland. Plan accordingly!

Versailles Full Day Bike Tour with Palace, Gardens, & Picnic

Gerald_M, Jun 2026

You do remember how to ride a bike!

Annie did a lovely job of sharing the history of Versailles with our group. E-biking through the gardens is the best way to see them - and it was fun! 😊 (The cheaper choice of 3 speed bikes were ridden by other tour members. An e-bike wasn’t necessary but was a great way to try one out.) The tour starts with the group purchasing food for our picnic. We bought a sandwich and salad at a bakery and drinks at a market near by. The short ride through the streets was easily navigable with Annie’s leadership. The visit to the palace after our ride was tough in 95 degree heat (no a/c) amongst the thousands of other tourists. Only visited the red zone (bedrooms) but saw wonderful furnishings and decor. Highly recommend!

Kelly_T, Jun 2026

Super engaging story focused tour!

Carolina did an incredible job keeping our tour super interesting and focused on all the stories of the Kings and nobility that lived in the palace. This really brought the history to life and made it much more entertaining for us and our kids as we walked through the palace. Afterward, we were admitted into the gardens and rented a golf cart to drive around, which the kids appreciated during the record breaking heat.

Richard_G, Jun 2026

I have wanted to visit...

I have wanted to visit Versailles most of my adult life and we couldn't have had a better guide. She was very knowledgeable and was able to explain the history behind the Bourbons and the palace. Everything was so convenient from when we stepped off the van to getting back on. Thank you! I will never forget it.

Versailles Half Day Bike Tour with Marie Antoinette's Hamlet

Marisa_C, Jun 2026

Lots of walking + some biking (good tour)

Vlad was a great, entertaining tour guide. Seeing Marie Antoinette’s hamlet was definitely a highlight. The grounds are beautiful. Would not recommend on a very hot day. We chose a bike tour because my daughter has limited walking mobility and this was a LOT more walking than I expected from a “bike tour.” (It took her a full day to recover and she also skipped walking through the chateau (palace), which is at the end and a ton more walking after the hamlet. If you’re up for a lot of walking (plus some easy biking), this is a fabulous option.

Versailles Palace Private Tailored Guided Tour With Hotel Pickup

Brian_K, Jun 2026

Fantastic private tour!

This private tour of the Palace of Versailles was one of the highlights of our trip to France. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the history of Versailles. He picked us up and dropped us off from our hotel, which saved the worry of a traffic delay and meeting at the appropriate time! Having a private guide made the experience so much more enjoyable because we could move at our own pace, ask questions, and focus on the areas that interested us most. The palace itself is breathtaking, especially the Hall of Mirrors, the King’s and Queen’s Apartments, and the beautiful gardens. Our guide brought the history of Louis XIV, Marie Antoinette, and the French monarchy to life with fascinating stories and details that we never would have learned on our own. The skip-the-line access was a huge benefit, saving us valuable time during a very busy season. The tour was well organized, and every detail was handled professionally. If you’re visiting Paris and want to truly appreciate Versailles rather than just walk through it, I highly recommend this private tour. It was worth every penny and made our visit memorable, informative, and stress-free.

Molly_E, Jun 2026

Great tour with a good company!

This was a great trip! In the morning when we were about to leave there was an accident that the tour bus couldn’t get around, we were delayed about an hour but the company handled it perfectly. It was completely out of their control and really wasn’t that big of a deal, but they still gave everyone a partial refund which I thought was very good of them. The palace tour was great as well. The guide was informed and very good at keeping the whole group together even in big crowds. The gardens were my favorite part! Highly recommend.

First visit to Versailles!

Very nice tour. The meeting spot was easy to find to meet up with guide. Our English speaking guide Olivia was fabulous. She gave us a quick overview of what and where we were going. I also liked that it was a manageable group size especially since this is a popular attraction! Also, the quick entry to avoid the masses coming in its worth paying extra for an experienced, knowledgeable guide to navigate through the masses! Worth the extra$$! I’m very familiar with the basic history of the Kings that occupied Versailles and by taking this tour and seeing it live really enhances the experience! Very happy we partook in this excursion! Thank you Olivia you made the experience that much more enjoyable!

Versailles Palace Guided Tour with Reserved Entry

Fiona_S, Jun 2026

Best tour!

This was a fabulous tour and I highly recommend! Our guide was absolutely terrific. She said we could call her Chloe, sadly I can’t remember her traditional French name, but she was the best guide I’ve ever had. She was knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and expertly guided a group of 25 through a very crowded palace. Even my 17 year old daughter loved the tour!!! I also was to thank the tour operator, we were running a few minutes late due to a train cancellation and I messaged them through the app, they were extremely responsive, and we were still able to join the group. This was a terrific experience all around!

Versailles Royal Palace & Gardens Private Tour by Golf Cart

Daina_R, Jun 2026

Golf cart tour a must!

Great way to explore Versailles. Golf cart is the way to go! The grounds are too massive to walk, it will take too long or you won’t get to see everything. Our guide (I apologize I forgot his name) was so informative, funny and made the whole trip easy and fun. I would 1000% recommend them and this experience.

Erin_M, Apr 2026

Great tour with Anne-Sophie!

Our guide, Anne-Sophie was fantastic! The meeting point is easy to find. The Get Your Guide Office is right across the street from the train station (Versailles Rive Gauche). The office is to the right of McDonalds. Incredibly friendly and helpful staff there as well. Anne-Sophie made French history come alive as she explained different points of interest in each room. She navigated the crowds flawlessly and provided headphones so we could all hear well. She answered all of our questions and even encouraged them. We freely explored the gardens and Trionons after (as we booked the garden ticket that included them). It’s a very vast estate so make sure to wear comfortable shoes. I had about 20,000 steps that day and that’s with using the “petit train”that goes between the palace and the Trionons. Thank you for a great tour, Anne-Sophie!

Amazing Day at Versailles

Alois was extremely informative and engaging! He was very attentive to our group’s needs especially one member with mobility issues. He gave an entertaining history of Versailles and allowed us to see an amazing amount of the property during our time with him. Two thumbs up!
