As a first time visitor, it was such a relief to just have to meet our guide in front of the metro station so she could show us how to navigate the Metro. Once we arrived, it was so nice to be one of the first groups thru the entrance which is so important. Our guide was very kind (endured everyone had a bio break) and knowledgeable as she was able to impart the history of the magnificent palace while avoiding the large crowds. She also timed our visit to water fountain show in the gardens so that we did not miss the wonderful show, while explaining the history of them. As an added bonus, we choose the add-on lunch which was Michelin Star worthy - another definite must! A definite 5 star tour!!

Marion Rame was an extraordinary tour guide

We had the most most wonderful time at Versailles. Marion met us at the metro station and was delightful and immediately brought us into the world and history of Versailles in such an appealing and enthusiastic and passionate way. Our group was so impressed with her and her knowledge and her way of explaining in such a manner that kept us engages for any hours....despite the distraction of rain, crowds and stuffiness inside the palace since it was so muggy with the rain. If we go back to Paris....we would love to have Marion be our guide for other tours.

A day was just not enough!

My daughter and I took the Versailles Palace and Gardens tour- WOW! Our tour guide was informative and helpful. The Palace was over the top but the gardens were just stunning! We enjoyed a gourmet lunch mid day and spent the rest of the day touring the water features and gardens. One suggestion- add MANY more trams! The number of people on the grounds and the number of trams to move people on an extraordinary hot day was insufficient.
