Description

Experience the grandeur of French royalty on a guided journey from Paris to the iconic Palace of Versailles. Travel in comfort aboard a climate-controlled coach and enjoy skip-the-line entry, allowing you more time to explore this UNESCO World Heritage site’s lavish halls and legendary gardens.

Your expert English-speaking guide will lead you through Versailles’ most celebrated spaces, including the dazzling Hall of Mirrors, the opulent Royal Apartments, and the magnificent Royal Chapel. As you wander, you’ll hear captivating stories of Louis XIV, Marie Antoinette, and the court’s dramatic history.

Depending on your chosen option, you can stroll at your own pace through the palace’s breathtaking gardens, designed by André Le Nôtre. If you visit between April and October, you may witness the famous musical fountain shows, where baroque music and water displays create an unforgettable spectacle.
