This was a wonderful way to see the Gardens and grounds of Versailles from top to bottom and side to side, outdoors in the fresh air on a beautiful day. JB was very patient, instructing us on how to use the electric bike. He provided everything we needed, including windbreakers & the GoPro to film us. He gave us the camera SD card after the tour as a record of our experience. We stopped for a coffee break between walking the Gardens and biking around the grounds, a total of 4 hours. I highly recommend this thoughtfully planned tour, with a built-in history lesson of Versailles and King Louis XIV.
