Experience with Versailles and musee d’Orsay

Sari_S, Apr 2026

There is so much to see in both venues. The tour in Versailles was informative but be prepared to feel pushed through the rooms, you don’t really have time to linger as you are guided along. There is more time to stroll the vast gardens, each one having a different feature. If you like formal, coiffured gardens this is for you. As for the second part of the tour, I felt the Eiffel Tower took valuable time away from the musee d’Orsay. If you are an art enthusiast and love impressionists, start at the 5th floor and work your way down. Yes you are seeing this in reverse chronology in terms of art history, but the gallery was closing and I felt rushed and claustrophobic as I was trying to appreciate the impressionists. To be honest, I felt to get a really good appreciation of the artists represented here you would need more time than this tour provided. All in all good value for your money. Oh and I loved the turtle ride to the museum.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Dear Sari, Thank you very much for your message. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit to Versailles and its gardens, as well as the boat ride to the museum. We’re sorry that the pace of the tour and the time at the Musée d’Orsay were not ideal for you to fully appreciate the artworks at a more relaxed pace, especially as an impressionism enthusiast. We truly value your feedback, as it helps us continue improving the organization of our tours to offer a more balanced experience. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future and provide you with an even more satisfying visit. Kind regards, Paris City Vision
