Fantastic tour of Versailles with interesting fun facts !
Jazmine_R
, Jun 2022
Tour was amazing ! Johanna was a great guide. Even though it was the hottest day 40 degrees C/100 degrees f. Johanna kept a smile on her face and gave us so much information at versallies. This is my second Versailles tour so I thought I knew everything but Johanna provides us with so much information I didn’t know ! Starting location was east to find taking the train. Make sure you arrive with plenty of time. The tour leaves promptly.
Great tour with a great guide (Francesco)

Versailles with Sophie

, Jun 2022
Sophie was fantastic. She was engaging and incredibly knowledgable of French and Versailles history (she studied hard during COVID). The linkup was super easy as the check-in was right across from the train station. I recommend the RER train from downtown Paris - inexpensive and a nice ride.

Laura is a fantastic guide!! The way she told the historical stories and information was captivating. She was able to answer any question that was asked at any time with so much knowledge and fact. Super smart and animated….you can tell she truly loves the history.

Versailles, a ‘must do’ tour
Barbara_B
, Apr 2022
Our guide, Laura, was exceptional in her knowledge, organization and kept the interest of the group through a combination of historical facts and humor. The additional tour of the Garden and Fountains is a must. We have booked tours through Viator since 2015 in Italy and France and we’re never disappointed.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
