4.00You might want to do some in depth research on French royalty before coming. Our guide was great, but it was86 degrees Fahrenheit and our return bus had no air for a 45 minute ride. Brutal.
Dumped, And I was not the only one

4.00The guide was good and very friendly. She explained things well and answered extra questions. There was a little confusion when we arrived at the location as we had to walk to the actual meeting place but that worked out too. The biggest suggestion/complaint I have is that the description is a little deceptive. When it said we would have free time to explore the gardens, I didn’t realize it would be for us to figure out the gardens. All was well as we walked through Versailles, but then we were given tickets for the garden and the Grand Trianon and Petit Trianon and told the direction to walk, but not that it was a loooong walk. We should have rented a golf cart. Once we realized our error, we rented bikes. That made the travel better, but there was still confusion about which direction to go and overall lack of understanding. I expected a little more guidance with the other pieces of the tour. Like I said, we saw the things listed, but do a little research and know what you want to see within the gardens and the amount of plants asking it would take to get you to the Trianons and Queens Hamlet so you won’t be as confused as we were.
