Versailles Palace and Gardens Small Group Tour Discount Tickets

Overview

Versailles can overwhelm as much as it inspires - 2,300 rooms, millions of visitors, and queues that swallow entire mornings. This semi-private tour cuts through it all. Your guide meets you at Javel Métro (Line 10) and travels with you on the RER C - 30-35 minutes that aren't dead time, as they set the scene: the politics, mythology and audacity of what Louis XIV built. With your timed pre-booked tickets, step straight into the Palace for a 90-minute tour through the Royal Chapel, King's Grand Apartment, Hall of Mirrors, and Queen's Apartments - each room given the context it deserves. Then head to the terrace for a guided intro to the Gardens - Le Nôtre's masterplan, the Grand Canal, the Fountain Basins and the Sun King's symbolism. Your guide then orients you for independent exploration: routes to the Trianons and how to get back to Paris. Your tickets give you the rest of the day - the guided tour ends at the Gardens, and what comes after is yours to decide.
