Itinerário
Conheça seu guia em Versalhes e viaje nos passos dos reis e rainhas da França! Durante o reinado de Luís XIV, o Rei Sol, Versalhes foi o lugar para ser e ser visto. Hoje em dia, visitantes de todo o mundo ainda vêm a Versalhes para admirar os esplendores deste incrível palácio. Seu guia local amigável irá trazê-lo para as figuras famosas que uma vez habitou este palácio de volta à vida. Veja o deslumbrante Salão dos Espelhos e os quartos reais onde o rei e a rainha iam para a cama e se levantam diariamente na frente de um grande público. Aprenda sobre a vida na corte real - houve até mesmo uma cerimônia para o rei colocar e tirar suas botas de caça! - a glória do Rei Sol que foi simbolizada por este magnífico palácio, ea queda trágica do rei Luís XVI e sua esposa Marie Antoinette durante a Revolução Francesa.
Passeie pelo resplandecente Salão dos Espelhos, como fizeram uma vez Reis, Rainhas e cortesãos, enquanto seu guia traz a vida cotidiana, cerimônias e escândalos da corte real à vida.
Depois de visitar os apartamentos de estado dentro do palácio, seu guia o guiará pelos espetaculares jardins, que já foram palco de bailes, festas e elaboradas exibições de fogos de artifício, símbolo do poder do rei sobre a natureza. Descubra bosques escondidos e nos dias de show de fontes, você verá as incríveis obras de água, ainda funcionando hoje, como nos tempos dos reis e rainhas. As fontes funcionam de acordo com um cronograma muito preciso, e seu guia garantirá que você esteja exatamente no local certo na hora certa!

The half day Versailles tour was wonderful! Able to hear and see so much history, the tour guide was so good to keep you engaged, and then plenty of time to continue exploring the gardens on your own after. I highly recommend!
Thank you Kari! We love that you had time to explore the gardens further at your own pace afterwards — and we're glad our guide took you through them first so you had the full story behind what you were seeing. The gardens are as rich in history as the palace itself, and we always make sure to give them the time they deserve. We really appreciate the recommendation! Hope you had a wonderful time here in Paris.
Look, this is an expensive way to waste time. The guide was pleasant but frankly, we didn’t need her. I should have known from when she said that she has to talk non-stop (and I declined to take the audio device on the basis that it would by and large be nothing I needed to compromise my visit with) . Our tickets said to arrive by 09.30: what they didn’t say was that this was to allow anyone else to get there by RER to the statue of Louis IV. Then we traipse up to the gate, and then we wait for people to use the loos while the guide prints the tickets. Another 20 minutes wasted. Then we join an another queue to get in as a group. The Memories blurb claims you beat the queue: not really. Then we have the excruciating commentary - and, on this occasion, in the midst of a heatwave. I went to sit down and the guide was very flustered. She said we could leave at any point and this inferred that we could do the rest of the tour solo. After another burst of commentary about Philip of Spain being queer - in rather a derogatory manner - I didn’t feel much like staying on the tour. My partner listened to the entire commentary about the interior and the gardens (which everyone was encouraged to film) up to the first bedroom, and the inference was - as the guide was busy taking photos of the rest of the group - that that was it. Only after we had walked through the rest of the palace, and past the point of no return, did we realise that our guide had in fact not given us tickets WHICH WE HAD PAID FOR to enter the gardens. We paid the additional €16 each and really enjoyed the rest of the day, despite the 41c heat. Versailles really isn’t difficult. It’s big, but not impossible. Once in the palace you see waiting rooms, a chapel, a hall of mirrors, and some beds. Very beautiful, but rammed with people. There is nothing gained by taking this or any other group tour. Right now, lots of the exterior ground adjacent to the main rooms of the palace is under renovation, and everything is under a layer of sandstone dust. To bill a tour as half a day when MAXIMUM - and after quite a lot of waiting about - one gets 90 minutes of fairly average commentary is daylight robbery. That mis-selling notwithstanding, we sought only to recover the €32 euros we had to pay due to the lack of diligence of the guide. Siobhan from Memories clearly has no understanding of customer service, and so I am posting this review far and wide. Memories is a clip joint: save your money; get a handset from the Chateau, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
Thank you for taking the time to write this, Sara. A few things worth clarifying for anyone reading: the stop before entering the palace is intentional, since there are no facilities again until the very end of the one-way route, and it gives everyone a moment to be comfortable before a long visit, especially in the heat. On timing, our timed-entry reservations do get guests in ahead of the general public queue, which we stand behind. The tour itself runs 3 hours in total, split evenly between the palace and the gardens, rather than the 90 minutes described. For any guest who ever wants to head off earlier than planned, just let your guide know and they'll make sure you have your tickets and any information you need before you go. We're sorry this tour wasn't for you, but we'd push back gently on it adding nothing — without a guide, the rivalries, scandals and sheer theatre of court life are easy to miss walking through what would otherwise just look like beautiful, empty rooms. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay here in Paris.
Don’t be misled by the prospect of a great Memory; this is a poorly organised, expensive waste of money. The tour may start on time - depends on the connecting trains - and you then spend 15/20 minutes hanging around whilst the guide collects tickets etc so a 9:30am meet becomes a 10.30am start. The Palace itself is very crowded - not their fault - but the tour narrative is at a Love Island level and not worth the time or money. However if you choose to go at your own speed or get disconnected, make sure you catch up with the guide as she has the tickets to the garden which are another €32 per person. The garden themselves are spectacular but best viewed at your own pace and without a guide - the chances of getting an advertised golf cart are close to zero so be prepared to walk. Versailles is undoubtedly worth a visit but this guide option adds nothing for what is quite a lot of money.
Thank you for sharing this, Stephen. A couple of points worth clarifying for future guests: this tour runs on a single direct train with no connections, and we build in a buffer specifically so the schedule holds — our records show the group arrived at the meeting point ahead of time, and the tour began on schedule. We should also mention golf carts aren't something we advertise or provide — the walk through the gardens is genuinely part of the visit. We're sorry the guiding style didn't land for you, though we'd gently push back on it adding nothing — it's the stories woven through the rooms and gardens, not just the architecture, that bring Versailles to life. We hope the rest of your time here in Paris was a good one.
There is a lot of walking!! And it lasts the whole day — which was worth it. I got to see so much more than just the main chateaux and garden. Our tour guide was Sarah and she’s fantastic. She took excellent care of our group and despite the large crowds inside, I still got to learn a great deal.
Thank you Annette! A full day at Versailles really does let you discover so much beyond the main chateau and gardens, and we're so glad it was worth every step. Sara has a wonderful way of taking care of a diverse group while making sure everyone learns so much, even on a busy day. We'll make sure she sees your kind words. Hope you had a wonderful time here in Paris!
An excellent well informed guide who made the journey through Palace & Hardens very accessible to all. It would be difficult to negotiate a meaningful experience without a guide as it’s such a vast property.
Thank you Susan — and what a wonderful title for your review! You've put it perfectly: Versailles is so vast that without a guide, so much of its story is simply invisible. We're so glad the palace and gardens felt accessible and meaningful for your whole group. Hope you had a wonderful time here in Paris!
Ivan did a great job of herding a bunch of cats (our group) through a super crowded Versailles, all while giving us interesting and entertaining information about the history of the palace and the many things that we were seeing. My daughter and I enjoyed our tour very much and would recommend Ivan to other groups!
Thank you Helen — 'Ivan the Great' and 'herding cats' made us laugh! Ivan really does have a remarkable ability to keep everyone together and fully engaged even on the busiest days at Versailles, and we're so glad the history and stories came through so clearly for you and your daughter. We'll make sure he sees your kind words — he'll love this review! Hope you both had a wonderful time here in Paris.
It was the best experience I ever had on a guided tour. Ivan was the best . So knowledgeable, and it was marvelous to see that he used every bit of time to educate us and walk us through the marvels of the history behind this masterpiece. Thank you so much for making this memorable.
Hi there! Here at Memories we are just over the moon at your stellar review - this is what we strive to provide for you every single time and are so proud to know we knocked it out of the park. We are here to make your experience in everyway extrardinary- thank you for taking the time to let us know we succeeded!
Our guide, Batu (apologies if misspelled) was incredible. He combined historical perspective with contemporary comparatives to ensure an educational, engaging tour. Definitely 5 star!
Helllo, Ross! Bayo will be so thrilled when he reads your high praise. We do try to make the over the topness of Versailles make sense to a modern eye - we are delighted to know we hit a bull's eye. Thanks so much for the stellar review!
Very nice tour through the highlights of Versailles and the expansive gardens. Stan, our tour guide, was quite knowledgeable interlacing the personality of Louis XIV with the artistic design and creations of Versailles.
Hello Charles and thanks so much for the great recommendation. Stan will be delighted to read it! We love giving context to all the Versailles bling and making it make sense to a modern eye and bringing the past to life in the present. We loved having you, and so appreciate your booking with us!
This was a wonderful experience! The group was small enough to provide a relatively intimate experience among the throngs of other visitors around us. Our guide was an extremely knowledgeable young woman who had been educated in the United States and spoke excellent English. She was very patient with my questions and expertly introduced many of the most interesting and captivating aspects of the structure and the grounds. While many of those around us without anyone to put what they were seeing in context shuffled through the spaces seemingly without any understanding of what they were seeing, our group was expertly guided into comprehending the significance and meaning behind many of the most important aspects of what we were experiencing. While there is not enough time to see everything in depth in one visit, this was an amazing overview delivered by a delightful professional. A highlight of my France visit.
We are so delighted to read your detailed and overwhelmingly positive recommendation! To be a highlight of your whole visit to our lovely country is an honor indeed. Yet a Memories guide means just that kind of excellence. Without such an expert to give context to it all, your experience becomes just an overwhelm of bling, and, yes, simply shuffling from room to room After you've come home again it's all a blur. We can make those memories sharp and clear and lasting, just as you've described -- and are so happy to do so. Thank you again for the warm review.
