Overview

The Palace of Versailles is synonymous with royalty, opulence, and the French Revolution. Follow in the footsteps of Louis XIV, who was known as the Sun King, and explore the grand palace rooms, a fateful display of fabulous wealth and extravagance.

One of the most famous rooms is the breathtaking 70m-long Hall of Mirrors, with its floor-to-ceiling mirrored arcades, intricate windows, and twinkling chandeliers.

You’ll be able to see the Trianon and the personal estate of Marie Antoinette, the storied last Queen of France. Her landscaped gardens are filled with Virginia tulip trees and over 600 beautiful rose bushes.

This garden contrasts with the geometric precision of those surrounding Versailles, designed by the King before the fall of the monarchy in 1792.

The Royal Chapel was the last building commissioned by King Louis XIV before his death. Inspired by Gothic architecture, it has a vaulted ceiling dedicated to the Holy Trinity.

The audio guide app, available in a multitude of languages, allows you take a self-guided tour around the Palace. Listen to stories of the ancient regime, how the Palace was designed, and the lavish balls and events it was used for.

Helpful crew and clear instructions. Views exceeded our expectations, and overall it was one of our favorite stops. (Would pair nicely with a light lunch nearby.)

Well organized from start to finish. matching what friends told us—but better in person.

A calm experience even on a crowded day. Photo spots were thoughtfully spaced along the route, and we felt we got our money’s worth.

Audio quality was sharper than usual for this kind of ticket. we left with clearer context on the venue’s history.

We’d happily do this again. Audio / guide quality was stronger than usual, would recommend budgeting a little buffer after for souvenirs.
