Versailles was stunning from the exterior of the palace to the ornate decor inside to the exquisite gardens for which I bought the additional ticket. Our tour guide Anna was fabulous and the fact that we had the tour guide allowed us to bypass all of the lines. There were bottleneck slowdowns inside but that cannot be helped. Paintings and real gold trim were everywhere along with detailed woodwork on all furniture and frames. The massive size alone would have been worth seeing, but it was so much more. The entrance to the gardens was hard to find but you just have to keep asking someone until you get there.

Our guide was Reuben, who was fantastic. You could tell he was passionate about the history, and made the tour both lively and informative. I’d recommend doing this tour to not only skip the main entrance line, but to also get an interactive experience that makes the history more memorable.

Small group assigned to knowledgeable guide made it feel like we were seeing the Palace differently than all the rest of the visitors. Didn't feel rushed or like we were only getting a limited experience.

Nils was our guide. He is very well educated and was able to communicate very well with all of us. We got a headphone with a speaker box so we could hear him even if he wasn’t standing right next to us. He was able to tell us what was original and what was reproduction. Great tour other than it was very very crowded. The line outside in the rain was terrible. I’ve never been so grateful to have purchased a skip the line ticket.

The tour was great, a lot of good information. It was nice to already have our tickets and be guided to the front of each room to learn more about it. Gill was wonderful- she was knowledgeable and made it a great experience. This tour is worth it!
