Tour was fantastic, just the right amount of time. Pick up and drop off at our hotel was convenient and much appreciated. Tour guide was very informative and was able to answer all questions easily.

Our guide was Sophie. She was personable and well informed. She highlighted the important sights in the palace, and gave us a picture of the historical background of Versailles, both before and after Louis XIV. Our full day trip included lunch, which we enjoyed in an attractive restaurant on the palace grounds.
