Loved the small group experience. - Agility navigating parking and the rooms, questions answered quickly with our expert guide, and a more personal experience. Our entire group was early so we were able to leave a few mins early. The gardens were stunning and our guide gave us extra tips on navigating during our free time. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

A lot packed into a single day at a good price - The itinerary is pretty well packed for a one day walking tour. If you have never been to Paris and can handling walking without difficulty, this a good tour to consider. I'd also recommend this as a good "primer" or "introduction" to some the sites you might consider coming back to on your own when you have more time to linger.

Great trip! - We had a great experience on our visit to Versailles. The shorter 4-hr trip was exactly what we needed to be able to fit it in.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions.
Great trip!
