Upon arrival, your guide introduces you to the Royal Courtyard and provides context on Versailles’ history, architecture, and significance. Depending on daily schedules and ticket availability, your visit may begin with the palace or the gardens, and your guide will design the day for the smoothest and most enjoyable experience.
Option 1: Meet on Site
Join your private guide directly at the entrance of the Château de Versailles, making your own way to and from the palace. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included in this option. Together with your guide, discover the Hall of Mirrors, King's State Apartments, Queen's Apartments, and the elegantly landscaped gardens. Navigate the expansive grounds efficiently using a private golf cart, moving at your own pace for a truly personalized experience.

Stroll to the Temple of Love, enjoy the peaceful paths of the Orangerie, and take in views of the Grand Canal.
