Grand Palace of France - Wow to see so much history and art work. Loved it all. My favorite was hall of mirrors. Great to download audio from an ap on your phone.

Half day at Versailles - We liked being on our own and deciding what we wanted to see. The Hall of Mirrors was a highlight in the palace. The opulence was beyond description! The gardens were amazing and we just scratched the surface given the allotted time. If we were to do it again, we would book an entire day in order to spend more time in the gardens and not feel rushed.

Hallfday trip to Versailles - The coach was great with a friendly driver and a great guide who gave very concise info regarding times, pick up point etc. The Palace itself is exquisitely beautiful. But......the audio guide was useless. I downloaded the app and plugged in my headphones but got very little help from the staff as to how to use the guide??? A list of numbers come up on the guide but these did not correspond to the actual areas in the Palace. I was lost.

Versailles - Definitely spend your time doing the gardens. So vast and large. We didn’t end up with enough time to see it all but absolutely beautiful. Versailles itself was large and amazing to see what it looked like centuries ago.

OK visit - The tour guide was great, but the site was a little underwelming. No real direction on how to walk the building and grounds.

Great sight to see; guide was a poor director and communicator. - A must see for travellers. We really thought the Palace was incredible and if our guide had been more communicative we would have spent an extra hour enjoying the sights. He neglected to steer our group to the correct line and we waited 45 mins longer to get in than we needed to. Really a shame since we were all so limited with time to begin with.

Disappointing - No real visit to Versailles—after waiting in line for a half hour, we had maybe 15 minutes in the site before a bomb threat evacuation and the closing of Versailles for the day. Then we stood on the pavement wondering how we were going to get back to Paris. Luckily we spotted someone from our tour and eventually made it on a bus and back to Paris. Altogether, very disappointing.

Terrible experience - Very disorganized we were supposed to leave at 11am we didn’t leave until 11:40 didn’t get there till 12:30 told we had to be back at the bus at 2:50- not very much time to see any thing - get back at 2:50 no bus anywhere - finally find the rude tour person the bus will be late we waited in the hot sun 40 minutes - worst experience I’d give a zero if possible

Bad experience - We take the Versailles tour, time 11.00am to 1450pm. We left more than half an hour late waiting in the cold on the street. On the way back we arrived at the place where the bus should be and there wasn't one, they left the entire group stranded and told us that there was a train in the town. Other tourists had to take an Uber to avoid missing their flight back to their country. Not very serious. I don't recommend them.

Not delivered on what it advertised - Incredibly overpriced for what it was. It offered a five hour trip to Versailles with one hour outbound and one hour inbound. We left at 8.15am and we were in Versailles by 8.45. We then were pointed to a queue for the 9.30am entry and were told we would be picked up at 11.50am. So basically by the time we gained entry we had just over two hours when the assumption was at least 3. There was also some mention of self guided audio tour which we never received. It would have worked out better to just get a ride to the palace and book separately and would have had much more time.
