Description

Your tour begins in the center of Paris, where you'll meet your guide and small group of maximum 10 travelers. Board a train together for a short ride into the countryside—no need to worry about making your way to Versailles all by yourself.

Once at Versailles, you'll skip the line and head right into the Palace. Alongside an expert guide, you’ll visit the most iconic rooms and, of course, the impressive Hall of Mirrors. As you walk, your guide will bring the palace to life with stories of courtly intrigue and royal plots, while also giving you insight into the everyday lives of the people who lived here. Thanks to the small group size, you'll be able to ask your guide all your questions, and they'll be able to tailor their stories to your interests for a more personal experience.

Heading back outside, your guide will give you an introduction to the extravagant Palace Gardens and allow you to wander them on your own. Depending on the day, you’ll see either the Fountains Show, where the beautiful fountains come to life to music, or the musical Gardens Show.

In the afternoon, you'll have free time to explore the rest of the royal domain, such as the Gallery of Coaches (open weekends and public holidays) or the Trianon Estate, where Marie Antoinette enjoyed her private moments at palaces like Petit Trianon and the Queen's Hamlet. With a roundtrip train ticket to Paris included, enjoy the flexibility of returning to the City of Lights whenever you wish.

This tour takes the hassle out of finding your own way to Versailles with all logistics handled, including transportation and skip-the-line tickets. With so much ground to cover and history to unpack, an expert local guide will reveal the stories and secrets that took place within the Palace's walls. There's no better way to experience one of France's must-see monuments.
