Overview of your Paris tour:

The Versailles Palace is the creation of Louis the XIV, known as well as the Sun King, Louis The Great and ByGodGiven. There are a lot of king's portraits on display in the palace, so you will be able to judge on your own was he a handsome man, but according to the memoirists like Duke of Saint Simon no woman at the royal court could resist his courtship. He lived an incredibly long life for his time, his reign lasted 72 years. He managed to be married twice, conceived many children, not only with his first wife, who was his cousin, but also with his many mistresses; their love stories were marvelously described in Duma's novels. Immerse yourself in a world of absolute monarchy and unimaginable wealth and power. Let's walk through the pages of French history together with me, your Local Guide. I would share my true infatuation and love for this place with you. I am so sure that you will not remain indifferent to what you will hear and see.

Your Paris tour itinerary

During the tour we are going to visit the main palace, including Royal Chapel, King's and Queen's State Apartments, the Hall of Mirrors and King' s Bed Chamber. (1, 5 hours). Afterwards we would walk through a part of immense Royal Garden which is considered to be the world's biggest open air sculpture museum, home to about 200 pieces depicting gods, goddesses and heroes of Greco-Roman mythology. (It takes 1 hour). However, if the weather is good, we might spend less time inside and stay longer in the garden. In total, the visit lasts 4 hours, including the time of travel to Versailles and back to Paris. If you choose to travel to Versailles by taxi or in a private bus, I will meet you at your hotel and we will travel together. If you choose to travel by train, we meet at the train station. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. The tour can be customized according to your demand.
