Excellent tour of Chateau de Versailles

My granddaughter & I took this tour. Our tour of the Château de Versailles and its magnificent gardens was outstanding, even with the extreme heat on June 27th. Our guide—a very tall, young man with blonde hair—was exceptional. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name, but he was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and kept the group entertained throughout the tour. Despite the challenging weather conditions, he did an excellent job of keeping the tour moving while thoughtfully finding shaded areas whenever possible to make everyone more comfortable. His enthusiasm and expertise truly enhanced the experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Versailles. Touring the Palace is an absolute must. Even though temperatures outside were extremely high, the interior of the Palace was cool and comfortable, making it an enjoyable experience from start to finish.

The bus ride was well worth the money. We viewed everything from the top of the bus. My son was estatic.

The 40 minute walk to the clisest pick up stop was a bit much in the heat, but walking was a nice way to see the shops and people. Without a tour group we saw everything without rushing to the next. Way more photos were taken. It was wonderful.
