    The tour was very enjoyable the guides knowledge of the tower was exceptional (Kenny) and she threw in some humour too which I feel adds to a good experience. She negotiated the mayhem at the bottom of the tower with ease, getting us into lifts very promptly. No easy task on a busy August afternoon. The only negative I can throw in is out of your control. It is horrendously busy.

    Excellent tour guide Olivia with good knowledge of the history of Versailles. Good communication we were given receiver and headphones so could hear her well even though it was impossible to stay close together in some rooms due to the crowds. No queuing other than very briefly at security.

    Únicamente que hubiese sido mejor si hubieran tenido los tours en español, ya que tuvo que estarle traduciendo yo a mi mamá. Esa falta de disponibilidad de guías en español ha sido muy inconveniente.
