Take a tour of Versailles with a difference - by bicycle! It's the only way to see Versailles' expansive gardens plus you'll get to see highlights of Versailles that most visitors miss, including Marie Antoinette's country-style Hameau, the Petit Trianon and the Grand Trianon. You'll also enjoy a picnic by the Grand Canal then take a tour of the Palace of Versailles. Versailles is located just 16 kilometers/12 miles from Paris, so we’ll meet near a metro station within Paris before beginning our journey. From there, we’ll take the suburban rail (about 30 minutes) and then pick up our bikes just across from the train station.

Jesse was a great guide. Very informative. It was lovely to ride a bike there. We were able to cover a lot of the grounds easily.

This trip was recommended to us by friends and we, in turn, will recommend it to others. Was a wonderful way to see the grounds at Versailles! Our guide, Nick, was very knowledgeable on the history and witty. Super day!

This is a long and very worthwhile bike tour. A highlight of our trip! Our guide Nick, a lovely and entertaining British gentleman with a dry sense of humor, gave us an entertaining and DEEP education on French Royal history. The trip to the market for our picnic supplies was so fun and gave us a real feel for the French experience. The food we purchased was naturally delicious! The bike ride itself was about 7 miles but broken up nicely with a variety of stops. The bikes were basic three speeds and did the job.
