Traveler reviews
delightful guide and a small group of 4 guests
versailles is an amazing place and we learned a lot about its history and the amazing furnishings and art.
Great tour, great guide.
This was an exceptional tour that gave us special views and insights into the hidden parts of Verssilles. Our guide Eva, was truly amazing. Her passion, knowledge and presentation skills really brought Versailles to life. The tour was not inexpensive but it was way worth the money. Go, you will be glad you did.
Intimate and Memorable Versailles Tour
Our tour of Versailles with Giovanna was truly memorable. She was enthusiastic, incredibly knowledgeable, and brought the history of the palace to life. The highlight was visiting the Private Quarters of the King and the Royal Family, which gave us an intimate experience without having to deal with the crowds at the start. Although we later merged into the State Rooms with the throngs of tourists, most of the tour felt very special. The tour was the perfect length to fully appreciate Versailles without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. We highly recommend a tour with Giovanna and LivTours.
Wonderful Tour
Grigor was a fabulous guide and this was a wonderful tour. We really enjoyed seeing all the hidden VIP areas and it was worth the extra money to not be waiting in all the lines. This is my second time using Liv Tours and they do a great job!
VIP tour Versailles
We signed up for a group tour but were the only ones on the tour so we were very lucky to have a private tour with Anna. She gave us an amazing tour of the Kings apartments and the palace. She really brought the history of the palace to life and made us feel like VIPs. We enjoyed the time that we spent with her and felt like we really learned a lot about the history of France and Versailles.
