Versailles Tours

I really liked the experience, our guide Laura, who was French, explained each room of the palace with interesting stories, and she was very nice and genuinely funny. The tour is not tedious at all, and then you can tour the gardens with total freedom, taking the time that each one wants.

Isabella was knowledgeable about France and it’s history during the reign of Louis the 14-15 and interspersed her talk with humour. She was approachable and led the group in a timely manner leaving time for photos . I’m short she was an excellent tour guide with good English for this English speaking tour .

We checked in at the office without problem. (There is a small pastry and sandwich shop across the road, so we grabbed a quick delicious sandwich to eat before the trip. There are no toilet facilities at the office, although there is a small public toilet just outside. There was also an opportunity to use the washrooms before the start of the tour. We had a very interesting tour of the Palace. Entry was quick and efficient. The guide (Isabella, I think) was very informative and made the tour fun. We enjoyed in immensely and would recommend the guided tour over the audio tour. We had a quick cup of coffee and tea before our return to town. We did want to do the gardens, but as it was in winter, we decided to leave it for another trip.

Fab was a great guide and definitely led us around the highlights of Versailles, giving us a lot of information about each room and the gardens. The only issue was that since the company organized multiple tours all starting around the same time, there seemed to be a lot of confusion for which tour each guide was leading. Either way, it was still worth it to book the tour as we got to skip the entry line and stay longer after the tour as well.

the meeting spot for this trip was very convenient. I loved being able to "skip the line" and have the guides waiting as we were able to use the restroom or grab a snack at the cafe while the guides were the first people in line. waiting for the audio set was about the only painful part as you're unable to skip that line :-) I would have even liked for the trip to be longer to give you more time in the palace but still feel I had enough time to see what is needed to be seen.

The entire experience was worth it. It is in kind of pricey but I guess it avoids you waiting in lines. Marion was amazing! We had a good size group and she managed us very well. She was very knowledgeable and we learnt a whole lot about French history. Highly recommended!

The tour was brilliant, the guide was really informative and I loved it all. The full day was a bit much for some of the group, we started off with 23 and lost about 10 of those along the way but they were all given clear directions to the bus so nobody was left behind

Tour a little expensive for me. € 62 to be accompanied by bus to Versailles, because it runs without a guide but only with an audio guide (among other things, not very explanatory, if you look before going to the episode of Ulysses by Alberto Angela on Marie Antoinette you will discover more things of how much the audio guide tells of it) had it been for us we wouldn't have spent it like this, unfortunately we came to Paris in the week of general strikes and we had no other way to get there.
