The true surprise at Versailles was the Hameau de la Reine, the rustic village dreamed up and built for Marie Antoinette. The stone and timber cottages, with their thatched roofs, seem as though they have stepped out of a pastoral fairy tale. Around them lie simple gardens, a quiet pond with swans, and small arched bridges—all composing a tableau of unexpected delicacy. There, far from the rigid etiquette of the court, the queen found her refuge, dreaming of an idyllic life away from the oppressive splendor of the palace. The fairy-tale atmosphere, filled with tranquility and natural charm, stands in sharp contrast to the cold monumentality of Versailles and remains, perhaps, the most authentic part of the estate.

The Splendour of Versailles The Palace of Versailles is a breathtaking testament to French opulence and history, renowned worldwide for its sheer grandeur. Visitors are immediately struck by the dazzling Hall of Mirrors and the majestic royal apartments within the palace itself. Beyond the main château, the Gardens of Versailles offer an exquisite landscape of meticulously manicured lawns, ornate fountains, and spectacular geometric designs that stretch for miles. The entire estate also encompasses the charm of the Petit Trianon and the Grand Trianon, which offer a more intimate, yet equally elegant, glimpse into the private lives of French royalty.

Although there were really many people at the entrance, entry was quick and easy via an extra line. The castle itself was very impressive, although the crowds often blocked the view and you just had to walk along with the masses. Smaller groups would definitely be nicer here to enjoy the experience. It is simply impossible to see everything, the castle is far too big for that. The gardens, however, were very relaxing and with the music, the fountains of the fountains and the whole landscape you were transported to another world.

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.

Families welcome: dedicated kids’ menu with options like croque-monsieur, sausages with mash, and ice cream.

Relax on the shaded terrace with panoramic views, or in the bright winter garden indoors.

Open daily from 9:00 (closing times vary seasonally; with it closing earlier on fountain show nights).

I loved how seamless the experience was! The timed entry made it easy to skip long lines and enter right on schedule. The Palace itself was absolutely stunning — every room was filled with incredible art, gold details, and history. Having the optional access to the gardens was a huge bonus — they were beautifully maintained and so peaceful to walk through. Overall, it was a wonderful and well-organized experience that really brought French history to life.

I think what REALLY made the visit to Versailles memorable is that my sister Tracey had her breathe taken away. She didnt expect what she got! The gardens is what really made her draw drop. She is an avid gardener and she was flabbergasted at the precision of the garden. My sister is wearing the glasses!
