Overview
After picking you up at your hotel with one of our 8 seated air conditioned Mercedes Van, our professional guide will drive you to discover Versailles, home of the Sun King, where you will visit its Palace (with an audioguide) and the Gardens (with your guide).
You will have time to enjoy lunch between the two visits (which is not included in the price).
