Dream come true - We really enjoyed this tour. Very low key but to the point. We got in fast and explored it with the guide. Make sure to book full experience that includes the gardens and after tour is over- stay and explore on your own. Beautiful place. Our guide was great.

Small group tour is the way to go - Versailles is very crowded so I am happy we went with a skip the line, small group tour. Our tour guide only had to maneuver 3 of us through the crowds, which made it easy to keep up and not be constantly waiting for people. I think the maximum group size was 6, but several got caught in traffic in Paris and did not arrive in time for the tour (leave earlier than you think you need to if coming from Paris).

Versailles - Lots of walking on uneven ground. Very informative. The headphones helped a lot so we could hear in the crowded noisy rooms. Save time to walk the gardens.

Disappointing - Left behind - I didn’t have the experience. We arrived at the scheduled time and place and found 3 tour groups assembling. We asked all 3 if we were part of their tour group they all said no. We went to the entry for groups. Not there. Finally found a phone number, was told our guide had already entered,, was out of contact, and we were out of luck. I requested a refund and they apologized, said that was not possible and hung up. I am contesting the charge but have not heard back. I advise anyone using Viator to get a contact number. Finding one was difficult. Also, having the guide have a clearly identifiable sign would be helpful. None of the groups were easily identifiable. Hoping viator makes it right.

Disappointed - I called Viator the evening before our tour to request a change in the time of our tour to a later time on the same day. Viator customer service said they would email the vendor to request the change, promising me a email response by the vendor. I received no response and lost $320 on the missed tour. I understand that a time change might not been possible, but I would have appreciated a response from the vendor.
