Description
Enjoy a comfortable round-trip journey from Paris to the Palace of Versailles. Meet your multilingual welcome host and shuttle at one of the three departure points in Paris (except during your visit to the Palace of Versailles and free time in the Palace Gardens).
Upon arrival at this UNESCO World Heritage site, your host will escort you to the main entrance, after which you can explore the Château at your own pace with an audio guide available for download via the app in 13 languages (French, English, Spanish, Italian, German, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Portuguese, Korean, Mandarin, Japanese, Arabic). We recommend that you bring your headphones. During the garden show season, entrance to the garden shows is included.
The tour includes tickets to the Palace of Versailles (Hall of Mirrors, Royal Apartments, Gallery of Battles), the Trianon Estate (Grand Trianon, Petit Trianon, and their gardens, including the Queen’s Hamlet), temporary exhibitions, the Gallery of Coaches (weekends only), the Royal Tennis Court, the Gardens, and the Park.
After the visit of the Palace, you can also enjoy a 20-minute free visit to the perfume museum. There, you will discover the history of perfume in France. It's a voluntary experience and an excellent complement to the excursion. (Not available on Sundays)
Step into the heart of royal life and discover how the Palace of Versailles evolved from a hunting lodge for Louis XIII into the magnificent residence of Louis XIV, who moved the French court and government here. Wander through the dazzling Hall of Mirrors, opulent State Apartments, and follow in the footsteps of the Sun King himself. Stroll through the gardens designed by André Le Nôtre at your own pace, admiring the sculptures, fountains, and perfectly landscaped flowerbeds.
Your entrance tickets will be available for download starting at 12:00 PM (noon) on the day before your excursion here: http://tickets.magicways.fr/
The arrival is at 10.45 AM (depending on traffic) and the return from the Palace will be at 3.45 PM.
From April to October, enjoy the spectacular garden shows, a visual feast of fountains, flowers, and sculptures. From November to March, while the shows do not run, the gardens remain open for you to explore their beauty and grandeur at leisure.
