brought the past to life!

A really nice tour with lots of little details you won't find reading the regular guide books. Our tour guide was really nice and he would take the time to answer every question. The discussions on day to day life in the castle really helped bring the past to life. Would definitely do this again in a few years with the kids.

Okay Tour, Nice Guide

We purchased primarily for the skip the line, which was unnecessary at 9 AM on a Tuesday. The tour company was disorganized and our tickets were with a different guide so we entered the palace almost 30 minutes late. Issues with the headsets made it very difficult to understand the tour guide, as a result the pace felt very slow. The tour guide was very nice, but we should have just explored on our own.

Much too crowded during Covid

This rating has nothing to do with our tour guide or the tour operator. However, the venue itself lets in far too many people into the palace to be safe. Unlike the Louvre which strictly enforces its mask policy, there was no one at the Palace of Versailles making sure masks were being worn. Many people wore their masks around their chin which was not appreciated. I could not wait to get out of there.
Wonderful & a must see

We were very pleased with our tour guide. Knowledgeable re history et al yet threw in bits of background and perspectives that brought things to left. Great tour.

I had a wonderful tour and the Paris TRIP tour operators were very helpful when I got confused about my ticket. The gardens tour is only included when there is no magic fountain show. In any case I spent hours wandering about the place and could have spent much longer.
Our guide Olivier related a number of interesting stories about the palace and about French nobility. I learned a lot. This was definitely a highlight of my trip to France.
Response from Host , Oct 2021

Nos ha gustado mucho esta visita. Nuestra guía una chica mexicana, fantástica en todos los sentidos, tanto por las explicaciones como por su amabilidad y atención con nosotros. La duración, perfecta.
Sí recomendaría en caso de realizar la visita de las 15h, y dada la extensión de los jardines del palacio, considerad que a partir de las 17h ya no existe posibilidad de darse un paseo en el trenecito por los jardines, ni alquilar un boogie para darse un paseo.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
