The Palace was absolutely magnificent. It’s very crowded and you can’t possibly cover everything. Be careful of the pickpockets.

BEWARE. They took my money and did not show-up for my tour. The local tour operator canceled at the last minute promising me a full refund, but kept my money. They told me that despite it being an unfortunate cancellation *on their end*, I would need to cancel the reservation on my end *in order to initiate refund*. Viator lures you in with the promise of easy cancelations, but then once you are booked, you have agreed that there is no refund. Unfortunately, there is no way to contact Viator. They make you sign-up for an account to receive assistance, but the only assistance is a loop of articles with no actual human interaction.We loved everything about this tour!

Tour Guide most informative and made the whole tour very fun and enjoyable even for our 11 year old children. She took the time to explain the French Revolution in a way that kept our 11 year olds highly entertained. We were disappointed that none of the fountains in the gardens were running (they only run on the weekend). Versailles is spectacular and must not be missed, especially with Lillith as your tour guide.

You cancelled my tour 24 hours before. We planned months in advance and were looking forward to this private tour. Because of the very last minute cancellation we could not rebook. I would not use again.
