Among the places you’llvisit on this tour are:
- The Gardens of the Palace of Versailles: considered among the largest and most magnificent gardens in the world, they were commissioned by Louis XIV in 1661 and designed by the famous landscape architect André Le Nôtre. They are characterised by wonderful walkways, fountains, sculptures, parterres and groves.
- Le Petit Trianon: this is a sort of manifesto of the Neoclassical movement. Completed in 1768, it provided Louis XV and his new mistress, the Countess Du Barry, with the privacy they so sorely lacked at the palace. Marie Antoinette received Le Petit Trianon as a gift from Louis XVI in 1774 and developed a great attachment to this property.
- Le Hameau de la Reine: at the heart of the Trianon estate lies a remnant of Queen Marie Antoinette’s passion for nature: the Hameau de la Reine, which served as Marie Antoinette’s retreat.
- Le Grand Trianon: this is a unique architectural structure, featuring a central colonnaded gallery, the construction of which began in 1687. The king used this new palace as a private residence where he could spend time with Madame de Maintenon.
Furthermore, if you take the tour at the weekend, you’ll have the chance to enjoy the fountain shows and see the water jets in action.
Reviews
- EE.The best thing is that after all we had learned and explained by the guide, we had free time to walk around the palace. On top of that, we skipped all the queues! A super plus on this visit
- AA.The best tour to visit Versailles
- CC.Everything was very nice but I feel that the best thing was to have a picnic all together. Nice experience, perfect to meet other people and go back in time.
- BB.The bike ride and the golf cart were excellent forms of transport to relax and learn more about the palace. Highly recommended without a doubt
