Highly recommend the palace tour
We had a fantastic tour. Alfonso was extremely knowledgeable and such a good historical storyteller. The group had lots of questions which he fielded with easy. It was a good about of time in the palace and the courtyard. We also appreciated his recommendation for the gardens.

Exceptional guide and tour of the Palace of Versailles
We had the pleasure of having Chris as our driver and guide. He picked us up at our Vrbo apartment in Central Paris and then off to Versailles. The traffic was incredibly light on the way and he commented on that would likely not be the case on our return.
We had an incredible tour and his knowledge, sense of humor, perfect English and open to any and all questions about the property were very impressive.
The Paris 10k was happening that day and took nearly 2 hours to return to our apartment. He was incredibly professional and patient with the traffic and GPS that kept us getting us stuck in several location.
If I were to do the tour again I would hope we would be lucky enough to have Chris as our guide again.
Thank you!

Perfect day!
Rozann was outstanding! She was organized, so knowledgeable and a real pleasure to spend the day with! Worth every penny for the private tour and transfer. She took care of all tickets for admission and made sure we didn’t have to wait long in lines. Made arrangements for a delicious lunch in Giverny. Very efficient but made sure we weren’t rushed. We look forward to returning to Paris one day and asking Rozann to take us on another tour! Thank you for a perfect day!❤️

Perfect guided tour of Versailles with Ramona
Ramona was an incredible guide and gave us the perfect guided visit and golf cart tour around Versailles, the Palace, and the Gardens. She’s extremely knowledgeable, prompt, thorough, and over delivered on every part of our tour. She gave us such a helpful understanding of Versailles, the history behind the artwork inside, all of the historical context around the French monarchy, and so much more. I highly recommend her to everyone interested in touring Versailles! Skipping the lines and having a golf cart tour was particularly helpful during a 90 degree+ hot and sunny day!

Too Notch Private Tour
Not enough superlatives to describe the exceptional quality of our guide Zara. She was perfect in every way and we learned SO much! She made sure we experienced every single point of interest listed on the itinerary and knew how to navigate the crowds. We were especially thankful to tour both Grand and Petit Trianon with her and enjoyed visiting Marie Antoinette’s hamlet. Lunch at La Flotille was also wonderful and she made a long 8.5 hour day fly by. It was totally worth the high cost.

Royal Treatment
This is truly a personalized tour capturing 2 sights in one day. The travel time to both of these locations is also time that the guide is providing you with lots of great information . It was so great being picked up at our hotel and being transported in a very nice and comfortable van. Our guide Rozzen was absolutely fantastic!

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.

Wonderful in all aspects
The tour was well organized from beginning (meeting point) to end. Our guide, Marley, was personable, fun and knowledgeable. She ensured participants were safe and had a good time. The sites were spectacular. We very much enjoyed our visit to the town of Versailles.

Historical Versailles Private Tour
Gustavo was at our hotel a few minutes early, so we were already on our way by 2 pm. It was a great experience for our first visit to Versailles. Gustavo shared a lot of history about Versailles, including information about the royal families of France in relation to Versailles and history of Versailles itself - from the beginning to now. He pointed out the reservoir for the water that feeds the fountains and explained a little about how they work. After our tour of Versailles, we spent time in the gardens and were able to admire the fountains - which were running! We didn’t stay as long as we might have if it was warmer and not raining.
