Enjoy this fun-filled, family-friendly private tour of the magnificent golden Palace and Gardens of Versailles. You’ll meet your expert guide, who specializes in bringing history to life for your young adventurers, outside the golden gates, and enjoy priority entry through security.
Your kids will be given a specially designed interactive activity booklet packed with games, puzzles, quizzes, and creative drawing space. Your enthusiastic guide will help them find clues and decode symbols throughout the tour of both the palace and the extensive grounds. You will stroll through lavish royal chambers, the majestic Royal Chapel, and the dazzling Hall of Mirrors, where historic treaties and royal parties took place. Here you can re-enact making your curtsy or bow as you are introduced to their Majesties!
Discover how the once modest hunting lodge of King Louis XIII was transformed into one of Europe’s most opulent palaces by the Sun King, Louis XIV. Learn about the sometimes surprising daily life of the French royal family (they never took a bath and the palace could get very smelly!), and hear about the plots and gossip of the courtiers, kings and queens who once called the golden palace of Versailles home – including, of course, the iconic Queen Marie Antoinette.
Outside, enjoy a leisurely walk through the beautiful gardens designed by the famous landscape architect Le Nôtre. Full of fountains, sculptures, and winding paths that spark the imagination. Whether pretending to be a prince or princess or solving a clue in a garden maze, kids will feel like part of a royal adventure.
This private tour is an immersive journey, walking in the high-heeled footsteps of royals and rogues! We hope you’ll leave with lasting memories, a deeper understanding of French history, and perhaps even a few masterpieces in your child’s drawing booklet.
