Efficient service - Even though the wrong address was on the meeting place, I found it by walking around. The bus was real nice and the entrance to the Palace went efficient and easy. The guide “B”, she said to call her was knowledgeable and very nice. Took us right to the entrance and made sure we knew where to be picked up.

As advertised - Nothing provided but the bus ride to Versailles and the tickets, but that is as advertised. The ride was comfortable and on time.

Could have managed on our own for less $$ - Versailles is amazing! It shows the grandeur of the Royals with the 100s of paintings and portraits. The gardens are spectacular. I do believe we could have easily done the tour without purchasing the “guide”. This tour is basically an expensive bus ride (which was late) to/from. That being said, arrive at opening time for tix or purchase in advance. It gets quite busy after that!
