We understand that plans can change, which is why we are happy to offer a full refund with no questions asked, up to 24 hours before your tour departure time.
Within 24 hours, we won't be able to provide a refund because we've already started preparing for your tour and can't easily fill your slot.
Join your expert local guide for a full day visit to the magnificent Palace of Versailles. Visit the extravagant State Apartments and stroll through the sparkling Hall of Mirrors – just as the royals once did! Escape the crowds through the spectacular gardens and down to the private estate of Queen Marie Antoinette. Visit the Petit Trianon, her exquisite private palace set in luxuriant gardens, and the place she loved the most. You'll glimpse her private theater, known as ‘the jewel of Versailles’, and wander through her ersatz Normandy village, built specially for her to simulate the healthy simplicity of country life. |
“Although I had visited Versailles in the past, this guided tour was worth booking. We had the privilege to be guided by the awesome, Roman, who made the tour, super interesting, captivating our imaginations, and keeping our kids involved and engaged during the entire day. I can’t stress enough how excellent Roman was. He totally made our day. Versailles and its grounds, including the Petit Trianon are spectacular by themselves, but absorbing them with a GREAT guided tour is a super plus. Thank you, Roman!”
We will take the suburban RER train from central Paris. Your guide will accompany you to Versailles. |
There is quite a lot of walking on the full day tour. Everyone has to follow the same route inside the palace, and so you do need to complete this in order to be able to exit the palace. We will walk through the gardens and stop for a lunch break. After lunch we will walk to the Petit Trianon, and again through Marie-Antoinette’s gardens to her hamlet. At the end of the tour we take the Petit Train back to the palace to minimise walking. |
We have a pre-reserved entry time that allows us to use a different entrance and skip the long ticket lines. If the staff are sending people through on time there should be minimal waiting time, if they are delayed for any reason we will need to wait a few minutes until it’s our turn, but this is usually minimal and our guides are there of course to get us in as fast as possible! |
The tickets to the gardens are included in your tour price. You do not have any extras to pay. |
There are several restaurants and cafés and a sandwich bar in the gardens, your guide will help you find the perfect place for lunch during the break. |
