Discover what makes them so special!
Highly recommended family-friendly tour!
This tour was excellent and certainly worth the money. Our guide, Anne Marie, was fun, knowledgeable, and very patient with our children (aged 10 & 13). Seeing the royal bedrooms and listening to stories about Marie Antoinette really brought the royal past alive. It was a super day, we all enjoyed it. Interesting and highly recommended!
A tour from Paris to Versailles is worth it!
We had a great time at Versailles. Booked a tour from Paris to Versailles and everything worked well, from booking to the fast access. We were lucky to have an excellent guide who made all the difference. We would not have appreciated the palace without all the information we had learned. The bus was on time, comfortable, and clean. Really enjoyed everything on this tour!
An unforgettable day in Versailles and Giverny!
We stayed in Paris for only three days and had to choose which places to visit. I am glad we chose to spend a day in Versailles and Giverny. My wife and I enjoy art and architecture, and the tour was a perfect mix of both, together with beautiful gardens in Giverny and Versailles. Spent an unforgettable day exploring two amazing places.
