Versailles is a must see destination. The transportation was very comfortable and convenient. The tour bus narrator was very communicative and spoke several languages. Angelina's restaurant was so good. The food was delicious and not too expensive.

Transportation was clean and safe. Staff was pleasant and the views were amazing. There was a little hiccup with the no line entry as we waited in line a lot longer than anticipated. There was also confusion about the return home ride, however, there was traffic which is out of anyone's control. Over great experience.

A place of immense beauty, the Palace of Versailles stands as a symbol of France’s monarchy and its glorious history. Exploring it is a once-in-a-lifetime affair!

Travel in the lap of comfort with stress-free round-trip travel from Paris

Avoid the hassle and stress of planning your travel from Paris to Versailles; with these tickets, your logistics are sorted! Sit back and relax with round-trip bus transfers as you make your way to explore this marvel. Situated 30 mins outside Paris, in the village of Versailles, this elaborate complex once thrived as an epicenter of political power for the Kingdom of France. Begin your visit outdoors as you stroll along the cobblestone grounds, through the beautiful French gardens, and pass by the gorgeous Versailles fountains.

Embrace the grandeur of the Palace

"Your host will escort you to the entrance, where you will get to bypass the long queues and make your way directly into the Palace. Once inside, enjoy access to the most famous places within the Castle with your audioguide for company, providing you insight and information in up to 11 languages! Explore the ornate King and Queen's State Apartments. Learn about the French monarchy and peek into the private lives of King Louis XIV and Marie Antoinette.

Next, make your way to the glittering Hall of Mirrors. Connecting the 2 aisles of the palace, the impressive hall has been deemed one of Louis XIV’s best contributions to the Palace. Historically, it is also where the Treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919, ending WWI. Once your visit is winding down, meet up with your host and return to Paris in your own time."
