To fast pace for older people. - I guide was good. I know it is a lot to take in for the 4 hours given for the tour. However there were two people in our group on canes (older) and one of them had a hard time keeping up. I wouldn’t recommend for older people who can’t keep a good pace.

Great experience at Versailles. - Meeting point was very congested and difficult due to a 20K run in the area. The actual tour was well organized and very informative for a relatively short tour. It kept moving and we skipped the lines as promised. Thanks

Worth the time and money doing it this way - The guide was very knowledgeable. And though there were many people, we got in very quickly with priority access time stamped tickets.

Beautiful, but factual overload - It’s convenient to take a nice tour bus into the palace, and we did get in right away (and there was a long line). Our guide was sweet and obviously knew a lot, but she talked so fast with a thick accent that we only grasped 10% of what she was saying. We wondered if she ever took a breath.

Versailles in an afternoon - The guide was very informative at identifying points of interest and kept the tour moving at a good pace. The tour included more time than we needed to see the gardens. Enjoyed the Tour

Passionate guide - Tour guide was knowledgeable and passionate about French history-much appreciated. I would tell visitors to bring water bottles as little available during trip.

Delayed Start - 4 stars instead of 5 stars due to the fact the tour bus did not depart on time. The bus left 20 minutes behind schedule because they waited for a group of Spanish-speaking folks to arrive. Very disappointing. Once at Versailles a bunch of folks requested to use the toilets so another long delay. Our guide was excellent. Aside from these delays I would recommend the tour. Beautiful palace.

Versailles is beautiful, but too many people - Versailles of course is beautiful. The whole day experience was hard, traffic getting there in the morning, very crowded walking around inside, and tour director hard to understand. My suggestion is take the train there yourself. It would be cheaper and you can stay or leave when you want. Again, biggest drawback was too many people!!!

Visit to palace of Versailles - Did half day tour. Was overcrowded. Government using it like a money tree. Claustrophobic and rushed. Easy to get lost inside with the amount of people being pushed through. Couldn’t say I got a good experience or good information from it although the guide tried. They need to stop using it like a meat grinder to print money. I’d say recommend to a friend but be prepared for it
