A step back in time - Versailles is stunning with the painted ceilings and beautiful furnishings. The topping on the cake is Marie Antoinette’s farm. It truly takes you back in time. And there are no crowds there. You can take your time and soak it all in. There are even animals there. Our guide, Chris provided great information and answered all our questions. A truly special day

Perfect Tour - We loved this tour, we had Rosanna. It was worth every penny and we actually received information about other monuments that we passed on the way out of Paris and wouldn’t have otherwise seen, in addition to receiving information and the history of Paris. We loved the restaurant choice near Versailles. We appreciated her tailoring the tour to our needs. She was very attentive, patient and kind.

Ask for Anne-Laure as your guide!! - Our guide, Anne-Laure was excellent! Became a fast friend. We felt like we had a new member of the family by the end of the day. She was sensitive to our interests and desires throughout the day. We saw as much of Versailles as we could in an entire day. Thank you!

Day at Versailles to celebrate my birthday! - We had the MOST incredible time with Rose on the private tour of the Palace and Grounds of Versailles! Rose’s knowledge of Paris on our way out of town and throughout the tour was top notch! She was honestly the BEST guide we have ever had and we would HIGHLY recommend this tour and especially Rose as your guide!

Versalles and Marie Antoinettes - Can't sing enough praises about this excursion. Our guide, Chris, was knowledgeable, friendly and very accommodating. There is no way i could tell you in writing how beautiful Versalles is but you should definitely go. Also enjoyed Marie Antoinettes personal house where she took the children. Enjoyed walking around the grounds. Highly recommend this excursion and ask for Chris, by the way he knew everybody we encountered!! Thanks, Chris for a delightful experience.

Carlos was our fantastic... - Carlos was our fantastic guide for the day. We found him to be friendly, entertaining & very knowledgeable! Altogether we had a most enjoyable full day at the Palace of Versailles & grounds and can thoroughly recommend this tour especially if you want to see it all in one day & not least because they fetch you & drop you off at your hotel afterwards! The driver was also super friendly!

Versailles - expectations NOT met - Looked forward to seeing Versailles. Have booked private tours with thus company before. This time not as good as before.
Booked all day tour with private guide. First the tour guide Chris showed up a half hour late as he went to wrong hotel even though the instructions were very specific.
Informed operator prior to tour of mobility issues; however guide seemed annoyed.
During the tour at Versailles, ran into issues that guide did not know gates and miffs were out of order (even though he does this tour daily and has for over 30 years).
He left my wife somewhat stranded at o e point causing her to back track by herself over 500 meters.
He seemed to want tour to be over as he did not make at the stops on the itinerary (missed Petite and Grand gardens).
For the money spent ($1500 for two people) did not get value that should have been provided.
Like stated, have used company before (Normandy full day private tour) - have full understanding of what to expect. This time expectation were NOT met v
