Our guide Ahmed was wonderful! He provided such interesting information that went beyond the basic historical facts! He really made the times and the people come alive!

Excellent experience. Easy to find our way to Versailles as we were going there with a group and our accompanying hostess was very informative and friendly. The different guide we had for our tour through the Palace was super. Very knowledgable, great insight. Small group helped to make question- asking easy and made for a very interesting experience. Only wish would have been a tour of the gardens and Trianon venues as well. Mind you, 4 hours on our feet in the heat and crowds wore us out!

Great tour and guide!
Weather worked out well, was not too hot and the rain held off so we were able to walk the grounds.

This was an excellent tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly and it felt a very relaxed experience. The actual trip by train was well organised and we learnt a lot as we went round the palace. We used the company for two tours in Paris and were not disappointed.

Uitstekende tour! De gids was zo goed geïnformeerd, en we leerden zoveel over de geschiedenis van Versailles. Ik zou deze tour ten zeerste aanbevelen!

Sofia was delightful, on time and very informative. Francesca was very knowledgeable and a delight to be around. We were very fortunate to have beautiful weather. I had my 12 year old grand daughter with me and she loved it! I wouldn’t hesitate to book another tour with this company. I hope to see both of these woman again.
