After having been to Paris on other trips, I hadn't had the chance to visit Versailles, and WOW—on this trip I got lucky and I truly loved it! How did I miss out on this in years past? Not only did I like it, but I also got a clear explanation of its history thanks to the audio guide, which was perfect. I will definitely recommend that my friends make this visit and give themselves plenty of time.

What a wonderful experience! Our full access to the Palace of Versailles was organized perfectly through Headout. Booking was super smooth and entry on-site was very seamless, allowing us to immediately enjoy the stunning rooms and breathtaking gardens. An absolute must for anyone wanting to visit Versailles hassle-free!

We loved Versailles, from the gardens that go on forever, to the opulence of the palace! We walked over 7 miles that day, and were in awe with every room we entered in the palace, to the fountains in the gardens! It's difficult to explain the experience with someone who has never been there. The town was very charming too!

One of the most memorable experiences, I can't say anything negative about this. Ticketing was easy, just show up 15 mins prior to your entry time. Lots to see rich in culture, art and history.. highly recommended. Be prepared to walk a fair bit though, the palace is huge!

Full access ticket worked well for us. La Flotille restaurant was busy, but this did not matter because it ran like clockwork with a superb atmosphere.Great food and flawless service that made for a most enjoyable couple of hours. Excellent.

Dine in the heart of the Versailles gardens at La Flottille, a historic 1900s “guinguette” or eatery overlooking a water body. Flottille directly faces the Grand Canal.

Enjoy classic French brasserie dishes and house specialties like fish & chips or the Flottille croque-monsieur, crafted with seasonal ingredients.

Versailles is totally WOW! Queuing was organised and we went in by our ticket time. Annoyingly although our ticket said audio was included apparently it wasn't and we had to pay €5 for a very outdated listening device. The tour of the palace is very long- the best bits are right at the start and at the end. Make sure you leave plenty of time to visit the gardens- they are incredible. Definitely recommend hiring a golf buggy or bike to visit petite and grande Trianon as they are amazing.

Next to the Palace, which is gorgeous, what impressed me most was your online support with an issue I was having with the admission tickets. The agent was extraordinary and immediately sorted out the situation for me via WatsApp. It was the first time I needed support, but if it's always like this, there is no situation that can't be resolved. Kudos 👏 Thank you

It's easy and convenient. You don't need an internet connection for the tickets, and the place is beautiful, although I didn't know where the exhibition carriages were. The train is recommended; it helps you not get too tired.
