We did a Walks tour of Versailles as a family. 2 adults, 12 and 14 year olds. It was fantastic, we learned a lot from our guide, Ahmed. He kept it moving through the crowds, informative, and helped us understand what we were looking at. We had a great time and would 100% recommend.

Skip-the-line is definitely worth it, and Omar was a great guide.

This was a great tour - Ahmed (spelling?) was a rock star. So engaging and knowledgeable. Worth the trip.

Ahmed was truly an exceptional tour guide who shared intriguing historical facts about Versailles in a well-constructed story perfectly timed to the Royal rooms as we moved through them. He was truly able to humanize the three Louis and their families. A very nice person, as well! Highly recommend!
