Highlighted reviews from other travelers
The shuttle arrived late, which made all the people wait outside in rain and wind and cold. But the tour guide Omar was pretty amazing! He knows a lot about the history of the place and especially the fun stories that happened in the palace. It was quite an interesting experience. Love it!
Time spent in the gardens of Versailles was inadequate if you booked the little hop on, hop off train. We did not have enough time to hop off anywhere, if we were to make it back to the return coach to Paris on time.
