Overview

Discover the best way to reach Versailles from Paris: by electric bike rather than by train or bus. Accessible to everyone, even the less sporty, the electric bike helps you cover distances effortlessly.

You will follow a green route off the tourist trails, between parks, forests and villages. You will mainly use bike paths, paths and some low-traffic streets.

At Notre Dame Point of Sale in Versailles, buy delicious fresh produce to compose your picnic. Lunch in the park of the Castle and admire the palace.

Visit the Hamlet of Marie Antoinette at your own pace. Your Guide will be waiting for you near the bikes.
