A day to remember

5.00A great way to get around the property and see more without a tour like this. I’m sure we wouldn’t have been able to get to all the places we did Guide was best part , informative and friendly, gave us information about the properly, which was amazing , perfect lunch by the river.. biking wasn't hard but I wouldn’t tell you it wasn't easy , was definitely a little bit of a workout but easily worth it
Versailles with Antoine

5.00Antoine was a genuine legend and phenomenal guide. His understanding of the French Revolution and the significance of Versailles was second to none. Antoine gave local knowledge and tips, and also made sure the trip ran smoothly and on time. The trip itself was laid out flawlessly - with local knowledge for a memorable picnic. I always think the baramoter of a tour and a guide is how the group interacts - our group all had chats with one another and several of us bonded over the day creating a genuine atmosphere. For the price, couldn't recommend more.
Girlfriends biking and picnic in Versailles

5.00We were 6 girlfriends spending a week in Paris. We chose this tour as I had biked around Versailles before and wanted my girlfriends to have this wonderful experience. We had wind, sun and some light rain but it didn’t dampen anyone’s joy. Teo was our guide and he was wonderful, funny and informative. We had time in the market to get picnic supplies and the bike ride was leisurely enough to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The only thing that I would say if I could change something, would be to visit Versailles first because it was at the end of the day, so there were more people in line and inside. All in all it’s a wonderful experience.
Lots to see, informative, nice to see on a bike.

4.00Really fun tour! First, let me emphasize that our guide was personable, knowlegable, tried to be aware of capabilities of each cyclist and checked in with them. Would recommend a way to contact the guide as two of the group fell behind due to traffic and bike issues and that wasn't noticed for a bit. Also a few members of the group were running late after a visit to one of the sites and there was seemingly no way to contact them. Bikes need to upgraded. Would also recommend including information about Versailles art in WW11.
The best!

Best way to visit Versailles

5.00Fantastic way to visit Versailles. The Palace of course is breathtaking, but the grounds are just as impressive. Easy bicycling is the best way to do this. Our guide was very informative and fun - his English was excellent. We were broken up into smaller groups so our experience could be more personal. I would recommend this to anyone comfortable on a beach bike.
Fun way to see Versailles
