We're now offering a curated selection of beautifully designed sightseeing and cultural walking tours by Walks. More than simply after-hours access or line-skipping tickets, a Walks tour is about connecting people to places, with storytelling at the heart of every unique experience.

Escape Paris early in the morning on a private bus and head to Versailles, where you'll be one of the first visitors of the day to enter the palace. Your expert guide will whisk you through the palace’s most renowned rooms and galleries, along with the secret spaces few others discover. You’ll even take a guided walk around the famous gardens and witness the famous Musical Gardens show before a smooth private transfer back to Paris. 

Meet your guide and small group at a convenient location in central Paris and board a comfortable private bus for the short ride to Versailles. Once there, you’ll breeze past the long lines and enter the palace as one of the first groups of the day.  

Your guide will lead you on a curated route through the palace's most impressive rooms, including the must-see Hall of Mirrors, as well as lesser-known areas that they’ll help you fully understand and appreciate. Along the way, you’ll discover hidden gems and secret stories as you learn how King Louis XIV transformed a simple hunting lodge into the grand palace Versailles is today. 

After exploring the palace, you’ll head outside for a guided stroll through the gardens, where your guide will share a wealth of context and information on their design and history. Enjoy the famous Musical Garden Show (or Musical Fountain Show on weekends) as a fitting end to your morning at Versailles before returning to Paris on the private bus.
