Details

Discover the Palace of Versailles, one of France’s most significant monuments, on a guided tour led by an expert interpreter-guide.

Inside the palace, follow a route through some of its most celebrated rooms. See the State Apartments, the Hall of Mirrors, and the Queen’s and King’s Private Apartments.
Your guide provides historical context about the building, its use by the French monarchy, and life at court, including the reign of Louis XIV, the Sun King.

After the interior tour, enjoy free time to explore the gardens of Versailles. Stroll among statues, busts, and marble vases that form part of the landscape design initiated in 1661 under the direction of Charles Le Brun, Louis XIV’s official painter and head of the sculptors’ teams.

The combination of a guided palace visit and independent time in the gardens offers a balanced introduction to Versailles’ architecture, history, and designed landscape.

We enjoyed this tour. While there may be cheaper alternatives of getting to the palace and seeing it for yourself, it was worthwhile to be able to skip the long queue and head directly into the palace to immediately begin the tour. It is such a massive place and having someone tell you about the history and the background made it much more enjoyable and educational. Going through on your own would be too overwhelming especially when trying to navigate through the massive crowds that were there in November. If this is how crowded it is during "low season", I can't imagine what it is like during the summer.
