Absolutely fantastic experience! Our guide was lovely- so patient until we got the hang of the scooter bikes and was so informative sharing interesting facts about the places we explored. My partner and two teenage boys highlight this tour as 100% the highlight of their trip to Paris (we did a lot of tours/excursions). The whole experience of visiting Versailles was made perfect by incorporating thus trip into our day, I will certainly remember the experience as one of the best I have ever had. Cannot recommend this enough and such great value for money, I would have paid double for the experience!Christine_P

The guide was friendly and easy to find and communicate with and the tour itself was delightful, beautiful and enchanting. We couldn't have loved it more. We saw parts of the park that we couldn't have otherwise experienced. We both loved it. Thank you so much!!

JB was great. The tour around the grounds of the castle was a lot of fun. If you are looking to go into the castle you will need to purchase tickets.

Great tour! JB was our guide and he was fantastic! He took us all around Versailles and explained some of the history of the palace and grounds. Our 2 teens loved the electric bikes and it was a great way to really soak in the surroundings of the palace itself. JB was very patient while we got accustomed to the bikes and waited to set off until we were all comfortable. The bikes are super easy to get used to and a fun way to explore!Robin_B
