Exceptionally knowledgeable tour guide! - Our tour guide Meng was amazing! She had so much knowledge about everything in and around the palace and was able to answer every question we asked. I left wanting to learn more about Versailles and its kings. I highly recommend the experience. Especially the golf cart which will help add to your experience by seeing the grounds with the guide's expertise.

Great value for VIP service - Absolute fun and enjoyable experience, feeling like a VIP with a private tour allowing us to skip lines and ride in a golf cart. Our guide, Nils, was knowledgeable with great ability to keep the tour engaging. Very professional and well prepared to show us all the best that Versailles has to offer. The location itself is also a must see!!

Great Experience- must do! - Eva was a great tour guide. Even though we had bad weather to tour the gardens, Eva made it a great experience. It was even more special because Eva was able to show us the garden in a less crowded area and go into detail. She was great to ensure we got all the right pictures and where to take them. She is truly an expert in French culture and history. Eva also found points of interest for our daughter which made it even more special. Eva was awesome and I would recommend!!

Versailles golf cart tour - Anthony was terrific. He brought an ipad to help further explain both things we were viewing and how they fit in to history. I wasn't sure about the golf cart tour but given our broad age ranges in our group it was so helpful and regardless of mobility it allowed us to see so much more of the garden.

From V to Z - Our tour guide Z was terrific! He really made the Versailles experience really come alive. And he was so helpful with our group who had limited mobility. He made sure we had a wheelchair for the walking portion inside the palace. The gardens and palace is amazing.
