Family tour experience 10/10

Our tour guide Aurele was amazing. Very good with kids and very knowledgeable. My family loved the tour from start to finish and it remains one of their favorite experiences of the trip. My kids are 4 and 7 and Aurele was wonderful with the kids and keeping them engaged. She was smart, kind, and good with kids.

Great Family Tour

We truly enjoyed our tour with Nils. He made a great job at providing a great tour while keeping it lighthearted and fun for our two teenagers kids (12yo and 14yo). We definitely walked away feeling we had learned a lot about Versailles and would recommend him and Liv Tours to anybody.

Huge thanks to Viviana for a fantastic day! She’s incredibly kind and truly knows her stuff. We couldn't have asked for a better guide.

A beautiful day to visit with great history told by Eva as we toured through the palace! I could listen to her for hours

Eva made it so much fun to hear that history of Versailles- love her enthusiasm, knowledge and sense of humor! We had the best morning with her in the palace and gardens.

Best way to experience a beautiful historical place!

As part of our visit to Paris we spent an afternoon in Versailles and LivTours made the experience easy and memorable with the private tour of the palace and gardens. This is an extraordinary place and our tour guide, René, brought the history and palace to life giving us a meaningful experience. He also took the lead in taking our family photographs which was appreciated.
