Overview

Trade the stress of organizing trains and tickets for a smooth half-day escape from Paris to the Palace of Versailles. Travel from a central Paris meeting point in a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan.
Inside, explore at your own pace with the official audio guide, following in the footsteps of Louis XIV through the King’s Grand Apartments, the Queen’s Apartments and the dazzling Hall of Mirrors. After the palace, step outside to discover André Le Nôtre’s famous French gardens, with grand perspectives, ornamental pools and perfectly aligned avenues stretching towards the Grand Canal. On selected days from spring to autumn, your ticket also includes the Musical Fountains or Musical Gardens show, when water and baroque music bring the royal park to life. With round-trip minivan transfers, this tour lets you experience one of France’s most iconic sites in just a few hours.
