Full description

Versailles is too large to take in all at once, so this tour offers options. Every version includes a guided visit of the palace, from the royal apartments to the Hall of Mirrors, with entry arranged in advance.

You can then extend your day to the gardens and fountains, the Grand and Petit Trianon where Marie-Antoinette escaped court life, or the park around the Grand Canal. The tour meets in Versailles, so you make your own way there by train.
