This was a great tour that was extremely well organised. We were met by Berwick at Montparnesse station and taken to our host for the tour, Amelie at Versailles itself. Amelie was really friendly and knowledgeable, providing an array of insights into the impressive Chateau and gardens. We all had earpieces so we could hear what she was saying without her having to shout unlike some other companies. They could however improve the sound quality a little as occasionally it cut out for a few seconds. Versailles is of course supremely impressive but the Petit Trianon and Grande Trianon are well worth a visit and our tour included admission. This was a great tour made extra special,by Amelie and we would definitely recommend.
We had such a great time! It was very organized. The meeting place was quite easy to find outside of Montparnasse station. Our metro guide was so nice and helpful and brought us right to our historian/guide who was absolutely wonderful and made for a pleasant visit. Thank you
Thank you, Veronique! We're so glad Berek made getting to Versailles feel so smooth, and that Amélie's expertise made for such a pleasant, well-rounded visit once you arrived. We'll be sure they both see your kind words!
This tour was great from start to finish! We met Berek at the meeting point and he navigated the small group through the train station. He was very patient and taught everyone how to navigate, for not only the day trip, but future use! Berek took us to meet our Versailles tour guide, Stan. Stan was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the grounds. I would definitely recommend for those that are looking for a seamless day!
Thank you, Nicole! We're so glad Berek's patience meant you left with skills for getting around Paris beyond just this one trip, and that Stan's enthusiasm for Veersailles rounded things off so well. A seamless day is exactly what we aim for. We'll make sure they both see this! We very much appreciate your recommendation and we hope you had a wonderful stay here in Paris.
Fantastic and well educated guidance from Berrick and Sylvie - very educational and answered all our questions and more
Thank you, Bernadette! Berek and Sylvanie clearly made a great team on the day, glad all your questions were answered and then some. That kind of thoroughness is exactly what makes a visit feel complete. We'll be sure they both hear how much it meant to you!
Had a great time at Versailles. The guide for the train was very good and gave clear instructions on how to get back to the station back to Paris, Berrick. Our guide was friendly Mathieu and gave us a little longer than a 3 hour tour.
Thank you, Ruth! We're so glad Berek's instructions for the return journey were so clear, and that Mathieu gave you such a warm, generous day at Versailles, running a little over just shows how much there was to take in. We'll make sure they both see your kind words!
Great to have Sofie guide our tour, good information, made it so much more relevant to hear history.
Thank you, Deanna! We're so glad Sophie brought the palace back to life for you. The stories of court life at Versailles can sound almost too fantastical to be true, so having someone who can repopulate those sumptuous rooms with the fascinating personalities who actually walked the halls makes all the difference. We really appreciate you sharing this and will pass your kind words on to Sophie.
The trip was great. Beatrice did a nice job getting us to the palace and our guide once we arrived at the palace was superb. He was very knowledgeable and worked well our slower (foot speed) travelers. I highly recommend the excursion!
Thank you, Don! We're so glad Beatrice got everyone to the palace smoothly, and that Stan's care in adjusting the pace for slower walkers made such a difference. That kind of attentiveness is exactly what we hope for. We really appreciate the recommendation and have shared it with both Beatrice and Stan. We hope you're having a wonderful stay here!
Beautiful place! Must see. Very very crowded inside the palace. Stanislas our guide was terrific. Loved!
Thank you, Jessye! We're so glad Stanislas made such an impression on your second tour with us. Versailles really is spectacular, even with the crowds inside, and we're glad it lived up to being a must-see! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us such nice reviews, we hope that we'll perhaps see you again!
Wonderful time. Our guide Claire was delightful, and we loved her efficiency, trivia and stories, and ability to maneuver around the crowds. The train was easy and practical, allowing for visitors to stay in the gardens for as long as they wanted and return at their convenience. We did the 3 hour tour (there was also a full day option that others in our group did), and that was perfect for our kids (10, 12, 14).
Thank you, Jessica! We're so glad Claire's efficiency, stories, and skill navigating the crowds made for such a wonderful day. The train really is designed for exactly that flexibility, staying in the gardens as long as you like and heading back whenever suits you. Glad the timing worked so well for the whole family too. Claire will be delighted to read this, as are we! We hope you all had a wonderful stay here in Paris.
The guide was excellent and the palace is remarkable. It was crowded but to be expected
Thank you, Geoff! We're so glad Stan's guiding stood out, and glad the palace itself lived up to its reputation, crowds and all. We'll be sure to pass this along to him!
