Get the most out of Versailles with this guided tour of the Palace followed by free time on your own to explore the rest of the domain.

Make your way to Versailles to meet your tour guide in front of Versailles Palace. Skip the line at the entrance and follow your guide for an inside visit to the Royal Apartments. Walk through the palace and learn the history of the former home to three of France’s most illustrious Kings for over 100 years.

Following your interior visit to the Palace, stay longer and get the full benefit of your passport ticket to spend some free time in the gardens, the Trianons, and The Queen's Hamlet. You will even get the chance to see the Musical Gardens show if visiting on a Tuesday or a Friday or the Musical Fountains Show if taking the tour on a Saturday or a Sunday (included with your passport ticket).

Our tour guide was wonderful. She was informative, funny, and engaging. The tour group was very easy to find and it was very well organized.

Goed: Mooie locatie, prettige en een goede engels sprekende gids. Minder goed: een veel te grote locatie om in een paar uur te doen, loopafstanden zijn veel te groot. We hebben maar een deel van onze tickets kunnen gebruiken. We hadden toegang voor alles, maar daar hebben we geen gebruik van kunnen maken. Ik zou die de volgende keer niet meer zo uitgebreid pakken.

Es war wirklich eine gute Entscheidung vorab zu buchen, da wir so einen reibungslosen Zutritt ohne Warten hatten. Unser Tourguide Anna war super. Obwohl die Tour auf Englisch war konnte man ihr sehr gut folgen und sie hat uns gekonnt durch die Menschenmassen geführt. Danke für die tolle Tour!

Guide was great. We missed the part in the email confirmation about where to meet. That info could be bigger and more obvious.

Nous avons passé un moment inoubliable à Versailles. Notre guide était géniale. Elle a su nous faire rêver et voyager au monde de Louis XIV. Nous étions un petit groupe de 12, ce qui était aussi très bien. Tout était parfait et très bien organisé!!! Encore merci pour tout.
