5.00Gregor was so informative and thorough, kind, answered every single question we had (and there were a lot.). He was engaging and made the tour very interesting. We saw the kings apartments and were the only ones in the private apartments - truly special!

5.00Giovanna was such a great guide. Her extensive knowledge was presented in an engaging way with a dab of humor that was appreciated. She made our tour of The Palace of Versailles so much less stressful than had we attempted to go in on our own. If available in the counties we are visiting, we always book with Liv Tours when traveling to Europe and having guides like Giovanna reinforce why we always do.

5.00This tour was actually the semi private kings apartment tour. Anna was our tour guide and it was great. Happened to be just us two, something that is not likely but we got lucky. The stories and knowledge from Anna was very impressive. We had a great, time. Pro tips...go early, get up and GO EARLY. We stayed after the tour and got a gold cart to drive around. We spend 6 hours there in total and when we left the place was super busy. So go early, book with Liv Tours and get lucky to get Anna!
