If you ABSOLUTELY MUST see Versailles this tour is perfectly fine

It was ok. Tour guide Ann-Sophia was knowledgeable and kept a good pace. We requested to meet the group at the palace rather than the in town ticket office and they accommodated us. I just wouldn’t bother with Versailles again. A general air of neglect and oh so CROWDED. If it’s between this and something else, choose the something else. I was underwhelmed. But the gardens were lovely.
Response from Host , May 2022
Dear customer,
We thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to read that you enjoyed the guided tour with Anne Sophie Even though the palace was crowded. The palace is usually quite busy during the high season (spring and summer).
We hope to see you again in Versailles, maybe in winter. It could be a good occasion to visit the palace with a different atmosphere.
Warm regards,
Marion

Not as advertised

Paid the extra money for 9:40 appointment to skip the line due to tight schedule. The tour guide was late, we waited in a long line, and our tour did not start until 10:30. We spent another 15 minutes in the entryway talking about new artwork when we came to study history not contemporary art. Due to the late start we had to forgo our tour of the gardens. Tour guide kept making derogatory comments about our country. France has not moved far from their prejudices against foreigners. The history given was fascinating and appreciated so I gave two stars instead of one. Different cultures and countries should be respected. Do not advertise the service will save time if it will not.
