Review for: Half-Day English Tour from Versailles

We arrived late for our tour due to heavy traffic in Paris. Fortunately, the tour guide from City Vision quickly arranged for us to join another tour. She escorted us to the Palace of Versailles and ensured we were settled with the new guide. This location is a must-visit when in Paris, but be sure to dedicate a full day to explore its vast grounds. I recommend taking the little train within the gardens, which allows for unlimited hop-on, hop-off access (just remember to keep your ticket receipt).

The place is just amazing and beautiful, full of history, and you can explore this place by yourself after ending the session. And can access the garden with this ticket.

Half day tour is enough to explore Versailles Palace. Better to get one with priority access so you won’t have to fall in line. Meeting point is also easy to find. Tour guide is very informative.

Review for: Versailles Historic Palace and Gardens Guided Tour

Highly Recommended! Meeting location was clear. Transportation was clean. Tour guide was easy to understand. You won't be able to see the entire Versailles within half day tour but it was enough to cover the important areas: The main palace and the gardens.

Review for: Half-Day English Tour from Paris

Other than the terrible traffic jam in the city that set us back by 40 minutes, we still have some plenty time to have the guided tour which is VERY Inportant if you wish to understand a little more about what’s going on there.

Review for: Half-Day English Tour from Paris

Versailles Palace is huge and beautiful. The half day tour was a little rushed but offers the convenience of transport to and fro Paris. The guide also helped with the tickets. Those who would like to enjoy the beauty at the gardens and the palace at your own pace should opt for a full day tour.
