SET OFF TO DISCOVER THE PALACE OF VERSAILLES AND ITS ESTATE, GEMS OF 17TH- AND 18TH-CENTURY ART AND ARCHITECTURE! This historical monument was the residence of several kings of France from 1682 until the French Revolution in 1789, most famously during the reign of the extravagant Louis XIV. Departing from Paris, your coach will take you directly to the palace grounds. The recorded commentary allows you to learn about the palace and take in all of its splendour at your own pace, guiding you through its most famous rooms. You'll also benefit from fast-track access to avoid the long wait at the entrance upon arrival.  Explore the gardens at the Palace of Versailles freely and be enchanted by the beauty of its statues, fountains and flower beds, which demonstrate the beautiful environment enjoyed by the Sun King during his reign. From April to October, you will also be able to see a fountain show in the gardens set to Baroque music (additional fee). This spectacular show will delight visitors of all ages!
