Traveler reviews
Memorable trip to Versailles
My husband and I had an incredible time on this tour, largely thanks to our fantastic guide, Nicholas. This was my husband’s first visit and my second, but both of us felt like we were listening to an engaging university lecture on French history. Even when a fire alarm delayed our entry into the building for about half an hour, Nicholas didn't miss a beat. He quickly modified our plan and got permission for us to view the gardens instead, ensuring we didn't waste time standing around at the entrance. He was incredibly funny and deeply knowledgeable about everything at Versailles—from the history and paintings to the pottery, sculptures, and furniture. Though it was a half-day tour, he was so engaging that we easily could have stayed for a full day! Additionally, the meeting place was easy to find, surrounded by great cafes, and within walking distance of the Eiffel Tower, making post-tour planning a breeze. Tip: It was quite cold at the start, so definitely bring a warm jacket!
