This was great. Easy to... - This was great. Easy to find pick up location. Transport was easy. Guide was excellent with an easy listening device in the crowds. Good amount of time to see what we want. Very crowded there but that has nothing to do with the tour. Just be prepared.

Wouldn’t do it any other way - Sylvanie was a charismatic tour guide, and Barrick was detail oriented. Both were incredibly warm and made the entire day memorable for us

Tour in Versailles - The tour guide Cecile was wonderful. The guide contacted me before to make sure I knew all the details of where to meet the group and where to meet to come back. The tour guide was excellent explaining to our family about the history of Versailles. It was a great tour and day at Versailles. I would highly recommend to anyone that wants to know some history and see a beautiful place.

A Little Piece of History - I found this tour okay. Sadly I did not know the name of the guide but he was extremely knowledgeable. The museum portion was not my cup of tea, but the gardens were amazing and I saw them in December. I can just imagine them in the summer. Worth a look.

Wasting precious time - Altough, we had an excellent tour guide, we considered that precious time was was red. It is winter and the gardens are not ín full function. Totally unneccesary to spend so much time roaming around in a cold and rainy day, to latter run around the palace in a frenzy. As we feel, it was the palace what we were there for, specially for that amount of Money.

Overpriced - We were quite disappointed in this tour. The best part of it was skipping the line. We saw just a few rooms inside Versailles. If I wanted to visit there again, I'd get my own transportation to and from Versailles, and buy a skip-the-line ticket to get in. If you want commentary, you can get an audio headset there.

It was so overcrowded... - It was so overcrowded that it was completely miserable. Versailles should have capped its ticket sales and the company should not have offered the tour. It was wall to wall people and the tour company did not manage lines and the buses were disorganized.

Not even an experience - We missed the whole trip and lost all the money because the bus left at 8.24 am. We missed it by 4min although 8.30 is listed as time to leave. They could not wait for us so We paid for taxi to follow them to versailles and they could not wait for us at entrance to join them.

Bad tour and waste of money - you can do it on your own - Giving it 2 starts as ideally the tour should be spending 60-70% time viewing the palace from inside, knowing the architecture and history and then remaining time gardens. It was exactly opposite. The tour guide was simply rushing us from one room to another and she did not give any details other than basics. We were left to wander on our own in the cold weather oustide for almost 2-2.5 hours. The bus is not parked there so you have to wait another 30 mins in brutal cold to come back to Paris. WONT Recommend. Do it on your own. NOT worth the price $$
