For example, you could write: We were very disappointed with this experience. We arrived only 5 minutes late, and despite our calls, no solution was offered to us. We were unable to take the tour of the Palace of Versailles even though we had paid a high price for a guided tour. What is most regrettable is not the delay itself, but the complete lack of assistance: no guidance, no offer to reschedule, no alternatives, and, to date, no gesture of goodwill.

Easy to find meeting point. Good communication before the tour. We had an exclusive tour of parts of the Palace not included on a general admission ticket. Bo our guide was excellent, calm, clear, unhurried, helpful and extremely knowledgeable about Versailles. She made the tour interesting and enjoyable and we were so happy we booked this tour.

Everything went very smoothly, from the pickup at the meeting point through the entire tour, with no waiting time, and the young woman who led the tour was very knowledgeable, shared lots of historical details, and made the whole tour very interesting, so it was a real pleasure to listen to her. 😃

Anna, our tour guide, was fabulous. Not only did she know all the details about Versailles but history, too, things I did not know. She maneuvered our group perfectly to find spaces where we could gather to listen to her insights. She was so friendly and kind. She really brought the Palace to life for us. Thanks, Anna!

Just a few minutes' walk from the Palace, you will meet your expert guide and receive your skip-the-line vouchers. Once inside, enjoy a guided tour of the most famous places within the Palace. Illustrating more than five centuries of French history, the Palace not only houses remarkable works of art -- it stands as a work of art itself.

Glittering Hall of Mirrors and other opulent features

With just a few flames, the reflection from so many mirrors was enough to light up the whole hall!
