The Palace of Versailles in true royal fashion. As your guide shows you around a carefully curated selection of the palace’s 700 rooms, you’ll hear stories of the Sun King, Louis XIV, his successors, their queens, mistresses, and courtiers – including Marie Antoinette and other notable figures. Versailles had its heyday in the 17th and 18th centuries, when the Sun King elevated Louis XIII’s humble hunting lodge into the official seat of the French court – and 300 years later, the palace has lost little of its glamorous excess.
Stand in the dazzling Hall of Mirrors, La Galerie des Glaces, the site of royal ceremonies and the 1919 Treaty of Versailles. Discover tales of decadence, diplomacy, and revolution. Visit the breathtaking Hall of Mirrors inside Versailles while our passionate English-speaking guide marvels you with stories of the excesses of royal life, peaking under the Sun King, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette.
Admire the double-level chapel where royal weddings and mass were held. A masterpiece of baroque architecture.
