The “skip the line” was completely false We had tickets and a Viator guide and we had to stand in line for an hour to be allowed entrance… The guide was just a person on the bus …he did Not do any guides at all …Hr sent us into the palace and said …go …you are on your own What a waste of money!! The other trips were good but the one to Versailles was a total scam

Missed trip due to tour transportation

We were at the designated meeting spot a good 20 minutes before time for pick up. We never saw anyone, or any identifiable transportation & ended up missing our ride to Versailles. We took a taxi & went out on our own, trying to use the proof of purchase as a ticket for entry (ticket was w/transportation driver). This was not accepted & we had to buy additional tickets. I emailed the tour operator to explain the situation & ask for a refund, and never even received a reply. Very frustrating & an expensive trip.

Not having are COVID vaccination documents and the tour guide taking us to a nearby pharmacy for a rapid test. Pharmacist was on lunch break and after hearing our situation took time to rapid test us and enable us to go inside the palace. Disaster turned into wonderment!!!

Having the tour helped cut down on wait times significantly. We were still able to do our own thing at Versailles with round trip transportation. Worth the money because the lines at Versailles are insane.

OK day

Versailles and the gardens were beautiful. The tour company was very disorganized. The bus picks you up at 3 locations but they aren't clear on where to pick up the bus. Also, at end of day, we were told to meet in parking lot. Larking lot is huge so we were confused on where exactly we needed to go. it was pouring down rain and you would think bus would be a little early. However, it was late. We could see the bus was parked down the street but they made us stand in the rain for an extra 10 minutes. It ruined a lretty good day since the whole bus was angry.

Our guide Theo to and from was personable and extremely kind and helpful. I’d rate the gardens as a 4 … many fountains were not working but the gardeners are doing a good job of keeping hedges pruned.

This “tour” was nothing more than transportation to and from Versailles. You’re much better off with tickets and an Uber

Fine, a bus ride and a ticket

The coach is nice. There is not enough explanation of things to feel comfortable. We were realeased at the gardens and told to be back in 1.5 hours. No explanation or tips on things to see. Told that we would see the fountains but did not. There is no audio or communication on the bus. You are basically paying for front of the line and a ride. Could have been so much better with just a little effort on the operators part. It would have cost them nothing but added so much.
