Great tour! Our guide Marie was superb! She relayed so much information during the tour. She also has a great personality. The palace was beautiful. Negative… Way to many people.

Tour guides were kind and helpful with all questions. Very knowledgable about the palace and grounds. The tour operator was excellent - we missed our meeting time and they readily rebooked us on the next tour one hour later and were prompt to respond. This was about a 3 hour tour plus 40 min train ride to and from the palace (metro passes included) . I was pleased we experienced this interesting and beautiful part of French history.
Well organized, just...
