Really enhances the Versailles experience - Leticia was a great guide, very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor. The tour covered the king’s and queen’s chambers plus the Hall of Mirrors in the morning. After a lunch break, the tour took us through the gardens and to Marie Antoinette’s incredible hamlet and Petit Triannon. It rained pretty hard at one point so Leticia took us indoors to the Grand Triannon as well, so we had a bit of a bonus exploring that. It was incredibly helpful to have a guide, as it really helped bring everything to life and give the meaning behind it all. My 11 year old daughters especially loved the garden tour. Visiting Versailles was a bucket list item for me, and this tour helped enhance it. highly recommend

Palace and garden tour English - The tour was wonderful. Lots of walking, but we got to see everything. The insights and history behind everything was really lovely to hear. It would have been impressive without the tour, but you wouldn't get the understanding behind any of it and wouldn't have been nearly as entertaining. I wouldn't recommend going without the tour unless you just want to see and go. Letitia was amazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

Awesome tour - An Unforgettable Day at Versailles – 7-Hour Walking Tour We had an amazing experience on our full-day walking tour of the Palace of Versailles and its stunning gardens. The entire visit took about 7 hours, and every minute was worth it. The palace itself is breathtaking, with its opulent rooms, rich history, and famous Hall of Mirrors. But the gardens were the true highlight — expansive, beautifully manicured, and full of surprises at every turn. A few tips: wear comfortable shoes and pack a lunch and water. There are places to sit and eat in the gardens, and having your own food makes the day so much easier (and more enjoyable). This tour is a must for anyone who loves history, architecture, and nature. We left feeling tired but so fulfilled — a true highlight of our trip to France!

Excellent Guide plus Fall colors in October. - We took the English speaking tour. Our guide, Gabrielle, was friendly, professional, and full of interesting information. On a busy day, we appreciated the “Skip the line” tickets at each location. The fall colors of the trees made October a beautiful time to walk the grounds of Versailles. We recommend avoiding Paris trip during 2 week Fall school break.

Well worth it! - Versailles was breathtaking. We got to see so much in this tour and it was well worth it. We could not have had a better guide, Gabriella. She gave us information we could have never known without her. She was so fun, kind, and just absolutely wonderful. Gabriella is the best! Thank you!

Not a bad way to see the palace and grounds - Very busy, a lot of walking, and only a cursory description of the rooms and palace. Makes for a very long day.
