Disorganized and unprepared

Kevin_D, Jul 2026
Our driver showed up in a van that could not store the wheelchair one of our party needed, even though I spoke to a Viator agent weeks ago who assured me it wouldn’t be a problem. We were 40 minutes late leaving while he found another vehicle. Once on our way, the driver got lost and had to backtrack, delaying us further. We arrived at Versailles an hour late, leaving us only 90 minutes at the palace. We didn’t see much of the interior nor any of the gardens before we had to meet the driver to leave. This tour was not cheap and we don’t feel we got our money’s worth. Overall not a good experience.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Dear, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations, especially after you had taken the time to confirm your accessibility requirements in advance. We sincerely regret the delay caused by the vehicle change and the additional time lost during the journey. We understand how frustrating this must have been and how it affected the time you were able to spend at the Palace of Versailles. This is certainly not the level of service we strive to provide, and we are sorry that your visit was shortened as a result. Situations like this are exceptional, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. If you have not already done so, we invite you to contact us at info@francetourisme.fr with your booking reference so that we can review your experience in detail and assist you appropriately. We hope to have the opportunity to restore your confidence in our services during a future visit. We would be delighted to welcome you on one of our guided experiences, such as our excursion to Giverny or our day trip to the Loire Valley. Kind regards, Alice de France Tourisme

The palace itself is beautiful but is soo packed that you end up shuffling along from room to room. The gardens are spectacular and the musical fountains are well worth seeing

Versailles A Must See

Nancy W, Jun 2019
As I had opted for audioguides instead of a live one, I felt that we missed out on a lot of interesting information because of that. We were picked up by bus and dropped off at Versailles, got in and were distributed audiophones which took a little to figure out. Once we did that, it was OK, and did provide some information, but probably not nearly as much as a live guide would be able to do. The Palace itself is truly impressive, but with all the over the top opulence, it is easy to feel overwhelmed.
