Versailles is without doubt the most magnificent palace in the world. The sheer opulence and beauty of this breathtaking edifice must be witnessed. The Chateau symbolises the zenith of French power, influence and taste. Your private tour takes you to the most sublime parts of this huge palace and gardens.

The present palace, started by Louis XIV in 1668, grew around Louis XIII`s original hunting lodge. The innovative architect Louis de Vau built the first section, which expanded into an enlarged courtyard. From 1678, Jules Hardouin-Mansart added north and south wings and the Hall of Mirrors. He also designed the chapel, completed in 1710. The Opera House was added by Louis XV in 1770. The gardens were then enlarged and broke the monotony of the symmetrical layout with expanses of water and creative use of uneven ground.

Depending on the time you have available we can even tour Paris in the morning and then make our way out to Versailles in the afternoon.

As with all our tours, if our most popular tour schedules do not suit your specific requirements, please allow us to create a customised itinerary especially for you. We always remember the day is yours to cherish.

“I had the most extraordinary experience with Oliver Wilson as our tour guide in London. From the very beginning, the service was exceptional. Martin greeted us at London Heathrow airport, dressed impeccably as an English gentleman. His politeness and engaging conversation made the journey to our hotel a delight. The following day, Roy picked us up in a stylish Range Rover that exuded comfort. Not only was the vehicle luxurious, but Roy himself was absolutely fabulous. His sense of humor added an extra layer of enjoyment to our day. And then there was Oliver, the epitome of charm and sophistication. As soon as we met him, it felt as if we were in the presence of a modern-day Richard Burton. Oliver's vast knowledge and captivating storytelling made every moment with him truly unforgettable. It's no wonder that this tour company has thrived for over 60 years. Oliver and his team provided us with an unparalleled wealth of information and took us to all the sites we were most eager to see. It felt as though we had VIP passes, we didn't wait a single moment for anything. Oliver's expertise in London was remarkable. He guided us to the places where even the late Queen herself shopped, giving us an exclusive insider's view of the city. It was an experience beyond comparison. I cannot emphasize enough how highly I recommend this company. To truly make the most of your time in London, there is no better choice than Oliver Wilson and his exceptional team. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Thank you, Oliver, for providing us with an extraordinary adventure and memories that will last a lifetime.” Read more testimonials
