Loved the e-bikes, best way to get to versailles - The bikes were SO fun, best way to get there. Loved the picnic, everything was very well planned out. We booked super last minute and tickets to go inside of the palace were sold out, but we didn’t mind because the gardens were so beautiful and there was so much to see outside.

Fun time! - We had an excellent experience, Reaud was a wonderful guide. It was fun biking to Versailles, enjoying the market and our lunch by the grand canal. That was better than our time inside the palace.

Fantastic Tour for Active People - What an amazing experience. The E-bikes were newer and very easy to ride. Our guide (Reno) was absolutely amazing. So much fun and knowledgeable. Please know this is a very long day! It is every bit 8 hours or more by the time we got to the main palace of Versailles we didn’t want to spend much time there. However we spent just enough time and the headed out and back to Paris. I highly recommend this tour if you are active.

E-biking to Versailles - A great way to see the countryside outside of Paris. It was great to stop at places that even Parisians don’t go to on our way to Versailles. Stopping at the open market to get food for our picnic was very special. Renault our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly! Great tour!

Great day!! - Amazing day!! Renault is friendly and helpful. We saw some stunning things I would have never known about! The market at Versailles is something to see in itself. Riding through the forest is unforgettable.

Lovely Versailles Bike Tour - I enjoyed everything about this tour. I met Renaud in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood in Paris. The bikes were well equipped and easy to use. We took a route which was off busy streets and through parklands. I’ve been to Versailles many times, however, Renaud showed me new sights I hadn’t seen. I had a beautiful day and would highly recommend this tour and especially Renaud!

Picnic and Market alone Worth the Ride! - We had an amazing tour today! Overall it was about 8 1/2 hours with our guide, including the picnic and market shopping.
Our ride through the city and throughout the French countryside on our way to Versailles was fabulous! The market where we stopped to shop for lunch was more than I could have expected. It reminded me of La Boqueria in Barcelona but so much better! The fresh fruit and vegetables! Delicious!
Smart tip … bring some Euros to buy your food as the cost will be half compared to putting it on credit card. It cost us approx. 30 Euros buying meats, cheeses, veggies, fruit and bread at the various stalls.
The picnic in the park just outside Versailles is worth the bike ride alone.
Our guide gave us instructions to get through the Versailles gates and that’s where we parted. As usual Versailles is CROWDED, and we blew through in a little under an hour (we aren’t the stop and gawk type).
The train ride back to Paris, about 25-30 minutes, was simple and it was about a 1 1/2 walkable mile from our hotel in Arrondissement 8.
Overall highly recommend and would 1000% do this again, just for the ride. 🤗

Mostly excellent experience - The staff were so knowledgeable and helpful. I like that they split us into two groups, as our group of 6 was the perfect size. They outfitted us perfectly and led us on a route that was varied and beautiful, starting in the city, which must have been challenging to map out. The biking experience was wonderful, had a super visit to the market and a perfect picnic. All instructions were clear and questions were answered readily. Versailles was way too crowded with tours by the time we got there, unfortunately, though that is probably hard to avoid this time of year. I only gave it four stars because neither of the two tickets they gave us for our return metro trip worked! My partner had to buy a new one in order to enter the metro and I got trapped inside the metro and denied exit. These frustrations created an unpleasant ending to an otherwise fabulous day.
