In het Paleis van Versailles stemt uw Gids het bezoek af op uw interesses voor een echt persoonlijke ervaring.

Reisroute
Bezoek het Koninklijk Paleis van Versailles, de thuisbasis van de Franse monarchie. Uw privé Gids brengt de geschiedenis tot leven terwijl u de Oorlogskamer, de Vredeskamer, de Raadkamer van Lodewijk XV, de Slaapkamer van Lodewijk XIV en de Antechamber van de Bull's Eye bewondert. In de State Apartments hoort u over de liefde van koning Lodewijk XIV voor groots vermaak en de betekenis van elk van de zeven kamers. De verhalen komen tot leven als je langs biljartzalen, balzalen en weelderige gebieden komt, zoals de Apollo Salon, waar Lodewijk XIV concerten en recepties organiseerde — de grote troonzaal is een waar symbool van het verval op deze Werelderfgoedlocatie. Je hebt ook de kans om de Queen's Apartments te zien, in het bijzonder de Queen's Bedchamber, waarvan de laatste bewoner Marie Antoinette was. Tijdens dit deel van de tour zal uw Gids inzichten delen over koninklijke etiquette, waarbij verrassende regels worden onthuld die elk aspect van het leven aan het koninklijk hof beheersten, zowel overdag als 's nachts.
Bewonder de Koninklijke Kapel, voltooid in 1710 aan het einde van de regering van Lodewijk XIV. Hier zal uw gids de tradities, muziek en ceremonies onthullen die in de kapel plaatsvonden. Binnen krijg je ook een les over de Absolute Monarchie: het geloof dat de Koning door God is gekozen. Besteed aandacht aan de gotisch geïnspireerde kenmerken, evenals de meer traditionele bouwstijl van Europese Palatijnse kapellen.
Bezoek de oogverblindende Spiegelzaal in het Paleis van Versailles. Deze weelderige galerij, versierd met 357 fonkelende spiegels, is ontworpen om de macht en glorie van Lodewijk XIV te weerspiegelen. Stel je de grandioze bals en koninklijke recepties voor die ooit deze prachtige ruimte vulden, waar elke glinsterende weerspiegeling de pracht van de regering van de Zonnekoning weerspiegelt. Terwijl u er doorheen wandelt, laat het glinsterende licht u meenemen naar een tijd van ongeëvenaarde elegantie en majesteit. Onze gids zal je helpen de geschiedenis en grandeur te voelen die nog steeds in deze schitterende muren hangen.
Tot slot sluit u uw bezoek af met een frisse neus in de sierlijke tuinen van Versailles. Het terrein van 70 hectare is uitgestrekt en het is niet verwonderlijk dat je gemakkelijk verdwaalt in het labyrint van weelderige tuingenot, vol verborgen schatten die je Gids aanwijst terwijl je over de goed onderhouden paden wandelt. Toen de tuinen werden ontworpen, werd elk bosje, elke fontein en elk standbeeld ontworpen met behulp van de Romeinse mythologie. Tijdens je bezoek zie je ook de oranjerie (orangerie), gevuld met zo’n 2000 geweldige sinaasappelbomen uit Spanje, Portugal en Italië. Na uw tour gaat u terug naar Parijs om afgezet te worden bij uw hotel.

Mila was fabulous, we just loved her. She personalized our tour to our curiosities and answered all our questions. I've been to the Versaille multiple times and learned many new things, I'd highly recommend her for any tour, she is lovely!
The Paris to Versailles Private Tour was phenomenal!! As first-time visitors to Paris who wanted to see Versailles, we found that a private, full-day driver was the best option for us. When you book The Unmissables tour, you will enjoy walking the grounds that many historical figures have walked, and you’ll have a guide who can help you understand why the palace has an important place in the history of France and the world. Max, our tour guide, was outstanding. He and the driver (I'm sorry I don't remember his name) met us at our hotel in central Paris at the pre-arranged time. The sedan was comfortable, and the driver worked his way through the narrow, congested streets of Paris with ease. The day of our tour, the temps were in the mid to high 90s F (30s C). Fortunately, the driver provided bottled water and provided an umbrella before we left the car. If they offer you the umbrella and water on a hot, sunny day, take them!! You'll be thankful you did, because you will need to walk in the open sun at some point in the tour. On our drive to Versailles, Max provided background on the palace, the town of Versailles, and held us in suspense (rightfully so) about other historic events associated with the palace. Max's knowledge of the history and inhabitants of Versailles was at the university level, and he answered our questions with the heart of a teacher. He led us through the gardens, explaining their history and the differences between French and English gardens. Inside the palace, Max used his visual aids, along with the palace's paintings and rooms, to tell us the stories of the lives and daily activities of the kings and queens who once walked its halls. To see all the places on the property, you will need to be ready and able to walk a lot. Max was very accommodating when we asked for a quick break or wanted to take pictures, and he kept us on schedule so we could see everything the tour had to offer. When we met the driver at the end of the all-day tour, he had the car’s air conditioning running, water available, and some treats waiting for us. The ride back into Paris was smooth and comfortable, and we were so glad we had chosen the Paris to Versailles Private Tour. It was well worth the money to have a private driver take us to Versailles and to have Max explain the rich history of Versailles, the gardens, and the other properties included in The Unmissables tour. If you are looking for a company that will give you the opportunity to relax on the drive between Versailles and Paris while providing a private tour guide steeped in the palace's history, then you need to book the Paris to Versailles Private Tours with Hidden Gems. You will be happy you did.
An excellent private tour for two including pickup from the hotel, a fantastic and informed tour of Versailles and a drop off under the Eiffel Tower (our choice). Jill was a fantastic guide and kept us both entertained with information both in the car on the way and then through the grounds and Palace. Due to an injury my partner was on crutches but that didn't stop anything and Jill arranged a wheelchair for the visit to the palace. Would highly recomend booking a self drive golf cart in advance to tour the grounds as well if you can.. sadly the queues were to big for us.
A driver and knowledgeable, personal guide made our Versailles trip top notch. Gerardo knew so much about French history, kings, their courts, and the build up of Versailles! He gave us fascinating info and had a great sense of humor too. Seeing the Kings’ private rooms was really special- something I’ll never forget. He took us on an in-depth tour of the grounds, fountains, Petite Palais and Marie Antoinette’s farmstead as well. I can’t emphasize enough how fantastic this private tour was! Don’t miss the opportunity to spend time seeing and learning, instead of waiting in line.
It was a perfect tour and the guide was extremely knowledgeable and explained so many detailed along the tour.
Great guide, knowledgeable and personable. Enjoyed every minute. A great way to see Versailles with no lines and no hassle in getting there from Paris. Highly recommend
Amazing tour with an amazing guide. Mathis was our guide and he was amazing. We've traveled all over the world and done many tours with many guides and he was easily one of the best we've ever had. Personable, knowledgeable , 5 stars all the way
Visiting Versailles and the gardens was a bucket list item. With Luigi as our skilful, engaging guide, we enjoyed a full half day tour of palace and gardens. No regrets about splurging on private tour as his expertise and historical knowledge were so worth it. Highly recommend both transfer services and this tour.
