It is imperative that you provide us with the guest’s MOBILE PHONE NUMBER (including the country code). The reason is simple but crucial: guests sometimes arrive late. If a tour operator books on their behalf and uses the operator’s number instead of the guest’s, we have no way of contacting them directly. Unless the guest reaches out to us, they cannot rejoin the tour. However, if we have the guest’s own number, we can immediately send their tickets and ensure they can easily rejoin the tour without missing out.

    Alistair was an excellent guide (from England, understood every word perfectly!) He gave us a lot of information but told us the story of King Louis the 14th, 15th and 16th in a way that was very interesting, fun and memorable. We began outside the palace where he provided context for the tour, then we explored the expansive gardens where he gave excellent background and detail of some areas that are less seen by tourists. The area of Marie Antoinette’s Hamlet was very unexpected, unique and enjoyable. The pace was leisurely, we stopped for coffee and then again later for lunch, both were very relaxing and unrushed. The tour took most of the day but was worth every minute! Make sure you wear comfortable shoes. The tour ends with a self guided walk-through the amazing rooms in the palace. Alistair gave us a brief overview before we went into the palace. My wife and I highly recommend this tour and Alistair was the best! .
