Traveler reviews
We had a fantastic day at...
We had a fantastic day at Versailles. After initially going to the wrong meeting spot, we finally located our guide and the rest of the day went smoothly. Bart was knowledgable and relaxed with the group, happy to talk with us about the history of the place. His food and wine recommendations were great too. The riding was easy, and we covered much of the park. Highlights were probably the walk through the gardens a Petit Trianon to see Hameau de la Reine. The tour of the private King's Apartments was also great, with a knowledgeable guide providing great information (via an earpiece, so you could hear clearly). There was then plenty of time to wander the rest of the palace (don't skip the chapel - it's fabulous) and the gardens if you want. I would recommend anyone wanting to have a full Versailles experience to do this tour.
Great way to see Versailles!
Annie was so kind and fun. Really made the day go smoothly. It was a lot of fun and a great way to see a lot of Versailles. We did the e-bike upgrade which made it very easy and comfortable.
There’s no better way to see Versailles!
This was a fantastic way to see the gardens of Versailles, the King’s private apartment and enjoy a full day in Versailles. Nick & Rory were our guides and they were so much fun! Both were full of history and stories, and they made the entire experience very easy and entertaining. We got e-bikes because we weren’t sure of the terrain or how tired we’d be from traveling. We didn’t regret getting them but we would have been fine on a traditional bike because it was mostly flat and we didn’t go far between stops. This will definitely be one of the highlights of our week in Paris. We’d do it again tomorrow if we could! (We had all adults on our tour but our teen kids would have had a blast too if they’d been with us.) Lastly, the private tour at the palace was way better than a regular trip through the palace. Once our private tour was over, we could stay as long as we wanted. It was SO crowded and nearly impossible to enjoy the rooms. I’m so thankful we didn’t just do the regular tour of Versailles- I think We would have left frustrated. Instead, we had a wonderful day.
Discount coupon
I haven't made the trip yet but my surprise is when you start shopping with discount coupon of their page they come out much higher prices checked using two devices at once. They offer you a 15% discount and it comes out 10 percent or more than if you don't apply coupon is misleading advertising
5-Stars - Highly Recommend
We had a fantastic experience on the Versailles Bike Tour with Toby. He was educational without being overwhelming, added the perfect touch of humor, and took great care of our group throughout the day. We were definitely tired by the end, but that was more from the sunshine and all the fun activities than anything else! This tour is a wonderful way to explore the Versailles grounds and learn along the way. Highly recommend!
