We had a great tour guide Alan who knew his way around the palace and gardens. It was very crowded, but nothing he could have done about It. The van came straight to our apartment in the morning and dropped us off at a different location after without any difficulties

Julian our tour guide is quite comical and was light when we went about the tour. He was punctual and arrived at the pick up point on time. We were quite early and reached the garden very early which was ideal to enjoy it without the packed crowd. The well manicured garden was picturesque. We were glad that he showed us that first. The only downside was we had to wait for the other group to join us for the Versailles tour. The tour was very informative as we learned the history of the palace of Versailles.

Our guide, Clemence (sp?) turned this tour from 4 stars to 5. She picked us up on time and was a delight the whole morning. We got to skip the crowds into the palace, and enjoyed a very interesting walk through each chamber. Lots of history and beautiful sights. Highly recommended, especially if you get Clemence!
