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).

The Palace & gardens were very ornate & spectacular. Only issue was with access. There was an electricity failure which meant venue was not able to open. We were originally told to come back next day or request refund. Later that day the venue opened, but too late for us due to other commitments. We returned next day and there was confusion as to where to queue/ how to access. Most, but not all, staff were helpful. Once entered, the venue was very interesting.

I really enjoyed my visit to the Château de Versailles, especially the beauty and grandeur of the place. Each room is richly decorated and tells a part of French history. The perfectly manicured gardens offer a peaceful, majestic atmosphere. It's an impressive place where you can really feel the power and refinement of the royal era.

It was a perfect day, nothing to say about Headout's service, tickets obtained on time, no problems, everything went smoothly. However, we saw the prices on site (64€ for 2) and I find the Headout fees slightly expensive, since we paid 120€ via the platform.

The staff was very kind to my husband who needs assistance to walk. We were able to use a wheelchair, which was a great help. It would have been very nice if a staff member would have picked up my husband at the street to take him up to the entrance. It was very hard to push his walker over the stones.

The visit to Versailles was very memorable. The palace and the interior were magnificent. The garden was colorful in autumn, it was just a pity that the weather was not the most pleasant for walking in the garden. That's why we skipped the visit to the Trianons, because it was a long walk there.

Explore the full Versailles estate at your own pace with a timed entry ticket. Then, avail the option to enjoy a quality meal onsite at its guinguette, La Flottille.
