The information given was very interesting and easy to understand. An excellent tour and right length of time inside the palace. So much history to hear and see. Well worth the visit.

Excellent guide Francesco. Meeting point info not great. There was no Headout sign at the indicated meeting place, Louis IV statue, and I had to ask a Paris Trip guide who said Headout was affiliated. It should have been made clear in the confirmation on the app. (The Paris Trip guide looked at my phone and couldn't find the info herself.)

With just a few flames, the reflection from so many mirrors was enough to light up the whole hall!
