5.00My wife and I visited Versailles with Claudio, our private guide. He and our driver picked us up at our Paris hotel right on time. We enjoyed pleasant conversation on the drive. The tours of the amazing palace and the gardens were wonderful and very informative! Claudio is an excellent guide who provided us with extensive information about the history of Versailles. By the time we were dropped off back at our hotel we felt as though we had made a new friend. Thank you, Claudio, for a marvelous experience!

5.00Our time at Versailles with Claudio was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first moment, it was clear that this wasn’t just a tour — it was an experience crafted with genuine passion, grace, and deep historical insight. Claudio brings Versailles to life in a way that no audio guide or textbook ever could. He has this remarkable ability to weave together centuries of history, art, and human emotion into stories that feel alive — not recited, but felt. Claudio’s knowledge is profound, but what makes him truly exceptional is his humanity. He reads his guests effortlessly, pacing the tour perfectly, making it engaging yet never overwhelming. Every explanation feels tailored, every moment thoughtfully curated. He balances humor, warmth, and intellect so naturally that you forget you’re learning — you’re simply experiencing Versailles. As we walked through the opulent halls and breathtaking gardens, Claudio made sure we never lost sight of the human stories behind the grandeur — the personalities, the politics, and the passions that shaped the palace. It’s rare to meet someone who can make such a monumental place feel so intimate and personal. We left the tour not only mesmerized by Versailles itself but deeply grateful for the way Claudio made it come alive for us. His respect for history, his generosity of spirit, and his attention to his guests’ comfort and curiosity made the day unforgettable. If you visit Versailles, do yourself the greatest favor — experience it through Claudio’s eyes. It will change the way you see not just Versailles, but the very idea of history itself. Merci, Claudio, for sharing your brilliance and your heart with us.
Wonderful Versailles tour!

5.00Our visit to Versailles was incredible mostly because of our tour guide, Claudio. His knowledge & professionalism was evident in his enthusiasm. We enjoyed all of the information he shared with us. The gardens & music were perfect. It was worth every step we took. There also was a bonus, Claudio is a great photographer!

5.00Claudio’s preparation before our tour was excellent, great communication in advance of our Versailles tour. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. We were treated like “royalty”, no lines or crowds in our arrival, and we mixed the garden visit and the castle with a good mix of time for pictures and leisurely walks. Claudio is a true professional, detailed oriented, he made our Versailles visit one of the highlights of our visit to Paris.
Extraordinary Guide for Versailles, Especially with Kids

5.00I tend to be somewhat skeptical of the value of guided tours, but Claudio was absolutely worth it--the experience with him at Versailles was priceless. I was traveling with my two sons (7 and 12) to Paris, and we wanted to see the Versailles Palace. It's not easy to cater to both a 7-year-old and 12-year-old, but Claudio did a magical job with both. By the end of the experience at the Versailles Palace, both of them had learned not just about the palace but about French history, which was reinforced by our trip to the Louvre with Claudio the next day (since my kids decided they wanted more time with Claudio). I even learned a few things that were featured in my next academic presentation (I'm a business school professor) a few weeks later. We're now on our way home after visiting 7 European countries, but my 12-year-old says he liked Paris the best... and I think that is largely credit to Claudio. I cannot recommend him highly enough--not just as an expert, but as a guide who really understands and cares about his clients, and thus can create great customized experiences for them.
Was a great experience . Loved the grandeur of Versailles. Our guide made our day

5.00Our enthusiastic guide Claudio made our visit amazing. Claudio took us through the Palace and bought the history alive as we went through the Hall of Mirrors past the bedroom of King Louis 14th, and on to Marie Antoinette bedroom. Each room has a story which Claudio explained. Thank you Claudio from Alex and Annie from Brisbane Australia.
