Overview of your Paris tour
NEW in 2026 : I have daily access to the palace before the crowds ! Versailles is not just a palace, it is a whole world to be explored. With 2, 200 acres of magical gardens, 3 palaces, a hamlet and a farm, it's worth spending a day if not more ! On this wonderful day trip, my goal is to have you experience Versailles both as a lord or lady from the 1700's in the main royal palace, following the several daily ceremonies and gazing at the Queen's chambers and the Hall of Mirrors, but also to feel more royal by escaping the crowds and discovering the private residence of Marie-Antoinette and the astonishing garden and hamlet she had designed for her beloved children. Give you time to experience Versailles in the most royal way, it's an adventure to never be forgotten!

Val A.United States
Bertrand has been our tour guide on three different occasions, including this Versailles day trip, and I must say, he's the most knowledgeable guide I've ever encountered. Our family of five thoroughly enjoyed his company. No matter what question we threw at him about French history or art, he always had a perfect answer ready, often accompanied by fascinating stories. Following his carefully designed tours has been an absolute delight. I can't recommend him highly enough.
Sherry Susan H.United States
Bertrand was awesome guide. We spent the whole day with him at Versailles. His knowledge kept pouring out on all subjects of France. The driver and car were excellent and on time. We would have enjoyed another day picking Bertrand's brain!! We would highly recommend to book with Bertrand. Thanks, Susan, David, Sunny and another David

Great news! My Versailles private tour is the first 100% custom tour available - that is a massive difference! I meet you directly at your hotel and on the way to Versailles I will introduce you to its fascinating history and characters. Our ride (private car) takes 30 mins and we park just by the entrance of the palace. We will start by the Royal Palace including the Hall of Mirrors and the stunning chapel. Of course we will also discover the King's and the Queen's quarters. Our tour continues through the legendary gardens, gazing at the groves, fountains and perspectives. It's also a great place for lunch. We will spend the afternoon escaping the crowds with Marie-Antoinette visiting her lovely mansion, Trianon, and the delicious hamlet she had build for her dreams of simple life! This full day tour at Versailles is designed for anyone willing to discover the true nature of this unique site in the world. My tour is 100% custom, let me know if you have any particular interests to cover on that day !
