Optimize your visit time with your skip the line ticket to avoid the long queue to access the interior of the palace.
Discover, on our own, thanks to audio-guided comments, the fabulous rooms of the palace such as the King's Grand Apartment, the Hall of Mirrors or "the Grande Galerie", the Queen's chamber...
After your visit of the Castle, you will access the gardens.
From april to October, you will admire the Musical fountains (on Tuesday and Friday) or the Fountains show (every Saturday and Sunday).
Versailles is the model of the typical French garden laid out between 1661 and 1700 by le Nôtre who levelled off the land, drained it and landscaped the views, groves, canals, and flowers bed. The gardens are adorned with more than 400 marble, bronze and led statues and fountains by water features.

Convenient way to visit Versailles. They take care of the transportation and the skip-the-line tickets. We went during an off-peak so there weren't a lot of people in Versailles

The palace itself is beautiful but is soo packed that you end up shuffling along from room to room. The gardens are spectacular and the musical fountains are well worth seeing

As I had opted for audioguides instead of a live one, I felt that we missed out on a lot of interesting information because of that. We were picked up by bus and dropped off at Versailles, got in and were distributed audiophones which took a little to figure out. Once we did that, it was OK, and did provide some information, but probably not nearly as much as a live guide would be able to do. The Palace itself is truly impressive, but with all the over the top opulence, it is easy to feel overwhelmed.

Poorly organized on return pick up from Versailles. The agent told us to get off the bus before reaching the office in Paris , & left us in a hurry. Was supposed to have a drop off to the hotel, but that didn’t happen . The office not very helpful at all. I would not recommend this company to anybody.

Versailles is wonderful but the extra money that we were charged for this tour to be "skip the line and in air conditioned bus" was false. We waited in the hot sun for an hour for our "guide" to go in and get our skip the line tickets. The bus was hot and had no A/C. We complained about this upon return and they said there was nothing they could do.

I booked the trip to Versailles with France Tourisme. We left by bus from their agency which is close to the Louvre. The bus was clean, comfortable and air conditioned. We could admire Paris and listen to the guide's comments.
Arrived at Versailles, we have quick access to the castle thanks to the priority access ticket. When I saw the queue in front of the Chateau, I was very happy to have this cut-line ticket!
Versailles is breathtaking! We visited the castle, the estate of Marie Antoinette and the gardens.
We were lucky enough to come the day they had the fountains show. It was wonderful.
I am delighted to have made this excursion. Everything was well organized. I did not have to worry about anything. Thank you France Tourism

First, we received a text cancelling our original tour. We went to their office and decided to do the Monet Gardens/Giverny and Versailles tour instead. The next day we arrived for the tour which departed on time. The gentleman, Robin was pleasant and spoke many languages while explaining a lot of the history of the area. The bus was clean and after requesting the air conditioner be put on, it was comfortable. Monet Gardens was just lovely and we recommend that part of the trip. You have enough time to meander through, eat lunch and walk to the little village shops. After that, you are on your way to Versailles. What a huge, huge disappointment. The ticket you purchase says you don't have to wait in line, that was one of the enticements to taking the tour. Oh no. We waited (NO exaggeration) one hour and 5 minutes to get in. The original guide handed us over to another person, who did nothing to see why we were like cattle all shoved together, and waiting forever to get in the venue. It was ridiculous! To be fair, he probably could not have expedited us anyway as there were so many people waiting. But, wait. It gets better. They close at 6, now it is after 4 P.M. and we are still standing outside, waiting. Finally they let our group in. We'd have been better off had we gone back to the bus and forgotten the "tour". Once inside, more waiting to get the audio equipment, which we were handed with no instructions. Actually, we were so crammed in there, with only the ability to shuffle along, that the audio was not needed. We literally were shuffling and unable to appreciate the beauty of what we told was Versailles. AND, we wanted to just get OUT of there and go to the gardens, but the employee told us, no, we had to go through the entire palace before we were able to exit. I am not in any way exaggerating when I say if there was an emergency, we would have been trampled. People were holding on to their children and looking like trapped animals. It was such a waste of time and money. While I understand it was Easter week, someone needs to tell the powers that be, that allowing so many people in such confined space is a hazard. And the tour company is partially responsible. It is absurd to charge for expedited entry when your customers are shoved in a confined area for over an hour only to not be able to enjoy the tour they paid for. NO, do not do this. Oh, and the "gardens" that my friends had been to once before.... NO Flowers. Just dirt around some nicely manicured trees. What? Monet/Giverny, nice. pleasant. Do not waste your time and money on Versailles. Shame, because we were looking forward to it, but live and learn.
