Versailles by bike - Our guide, Rory, was fantastic. He explained very complicated history in an easy to understand fashion. Unfortunately for us, our tour was scheduled at the same time as a very large running race, and it made getting around the grounds tough at times. Rory was great at getting us through the gardens with as little trouble as possible. Our group really loved the market in town and the ability to get our food for a picnic in the garden.

Fun Versailles tour - This was an excellent tour of the gardens, with lots of history and interest. Not too strenuous but definitely a lot of walking with plenty of breaks. Our guide Martin was the absolute best! The whole Fat Tires group we dealt with were so helpful.

So much to do and see - Our guide, Fergus, was very friendly, funny and knowledgeable. The grounds were lovely. There was so much to see, that we ran out of time, but the tour did not disappoint!
