A long and wonderful day at Giverny and Versailles - we were picked up by our guide, Jean-Paul, conveniently right outside our flat in the 9th arrondissement. We drove to Giverny first, and he took us around the gardens, the house, and even did thoughtful things like move the car throughout the day so that we watch part of the way, but then the car would be waiting for us. He was so knowledgeable about the history, the artist that we saw, they connected things to modern day, Paris. He was very responsive and engaging with our children as well. We had a lovely crêpe lunch, and then headed to the Versailles Gardens, to include the hamlet that Marie Antoinette designed, and lastly, the palace. I'm so grateful we booked this tour!

Top notch tour - Our driver/ guide was extremely knowledgeable and truly made our day memorable. Worth every penny as the guided tour provides many facts that you would never know.

Giverny and Versailles with a student of Life! - Our guide, Jean Paul, was outstanding! He was knowledgeable on so many topics. He was able to bring life to the characters, sharing information gleaned from archival sources as well as palace gossip. His English is excellent. We also appreciated his willingness to stay longer when we were deeply engaged and to move quickly through areas of less interest. He is very easy to be with and possesses a nice sense of humor. The sights themselves were everything you might imagine, and then some. We would highly recommend this tour.

Great tour of Versailles and Giverny - Fantastic experience. Our guide Giles was very knowledgeable and was able to use his knowledge to see things very efficiently, as well as showing us some areas that rent as obvious to unguided folks. Well wort the money.

Booking problems - If you make reservations with other people make sure you pay together. We made the reservations on the phone but gave 2 different credit cards and told them we wanted to be together in the same car. That day they put us in different cars. The poor tour guide didn’t know what to do. He tried to call his office with no answer. We call Viator but took a while to get anyone but then my husband was able to chat via text. He was told it was basically our fault due to not paying together even though we booked the tour by phone and was assured that there will not be a problem. It all worked out at the end due to a wonderful tour guide. It was just very stressful. We have used Viator many times and this has never happened. Hopefully it will never happen again.

Overpriced - Would not recommend due to the fact that we did not get quicker access compared to small groups tours. Touring was conducted with the rest of the crowd of tourists. There was no special access except for entry. Tour is set by the guides pace, which is not enjoyable in a hot and crowded environment. The guide was knowledgeable, but I don’t feel it was at all worth the money.

Awful, deceptive, there is no skip the line at Giverny. - This was very unprofessional experience. Please do not use this company for your tour. There is no such thing as skip the lines at Giverny, it’s a scam. Our driver, while very nice showed up late, had no water in the van for an hour and quarter drive. He left us and told us to meet him at the exit and didn’t give a number to contact him, needless to say, we waited over 10 min for him at the exit we knew. Really awful We have 2 kids and a 76 year old woman with us. The woman Sarah at the this company is combative and rude, 0 customer service. Spend you thousands of dollars w a reputable company. Really no excuse to spend 2k on a tour that is like this w the worst customer Service.

Do not recommend this company! - We had originally booked a private 9 person tour to Versailles and Giverny that dwindled down to 2 people. We paid upwards of flight tickets for two from US to Europe for those tours. In return we got a driver who barely spoke English. At Versailles we were linked with another couple for the tour. Needless to say, we could’ve rented a car and driven ourselves to these locations and had more freedom than be rushed. It was highly disappointing tour. We did not get a tour guide at all. I do not recommend this company at all. Be aware!
