Perfect tour

Victor is awesome, and the car is lux, nice nice. Originally I thought half day won’t be enough, but Victor did a great job using time efficiently and we enjoyed it a lot! I won’t visit there without a guide.

The optimal Versailles experience

We had 48 hours in Paris. My partner's top priority was visiting Versailles. This private guided tour achieved everything we wanted. Pick up and drop off from our accommodation in a private vehicle. Priority access into Versailles via our personal guide to bypass queues and the ability to shape the itinerary for our interests. Our guide, Hugo, was perfectly bilingual, very engaging and interesting as well as extremely knowledgeable about Versailles and events of the period. We learnt a lot and had a very enjoyable afternoon. If you don't have a lot of time or want to see and learn about Versailles without spending 90% of your time there in queues, this is the Versailles experience you want to have. We absolutely loved it.

We’ll be sure to pass on your compliments to Hugo!

We hope to welcome you and your partner back for another customized tour in the City of Light very soon. À bientôt,

Fantastic Full-Day Versailles Experience

Sarah was an amazing guide for our full-day tour of Versailles. She was efficient, knowledgeable, and navigated us through the crowds so smoothly. The full day—including Marie Antoinette’s Petit Trianon and her farm—was totally worth it. Even though it was cold and rainy, the gardens and the farm still felt magical. She’s American, so communication was effortless, and she was incredibly friendly throughout the day. Highly recommend, and thank you, Sarah! Both drivers were also great — the cars were clean, comfortable, and the drivers were so friendly.

Fabulous afternoon of Marie Antoinette

Our tour planner Ludivine was superb. Very responsive and helpful in providing recommendations for our agenda, including recommending a half day tour of the Grande and Petite Trianons and Queens Hamlet of Versailles. Sara, our tour guide, was phenomenal in her knowledge of Marie Antoinette with her knowledge of fashion, lifestyle, and history. We were sad she wouldn’t be with us our next tour day. Would absolutely recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see more of Versailles.

One of the best day trips from Paris!

This place was amazingly beautiful, and our tour guide Victor was great. We asked for a Spanish speaking guide , but for some reason they didn’t send one , but we still had great time with Victor and we learned a lot about the History of France . The Versailles is an unbelievable place with the most beautiful Gardens you can imagine.

Operator response

Bonjour Michael, thank you so very much for your kind words about Victor. And please accept our most sincere apologies for the glitch on the language of the tour, it's completely our fault. We are so happy everything worked out well with Victor in the end ! Kind regards from Paris,

Exciting, wonderful tour of Versailles!

We had a phenomenal tour with Lucien around Versailles. My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer to have more tours with him! He knows so much about so many different time periods; I have tons of ideas for our next rendezvous! I can't wait to get back!
