Versailles by bike

Published on Oct, 2024

Our guide, Rory, was fantastic. He explained very complicated history in an easy to understand fashion. Unfortunately for us, our tour was scheduled at the same time as a very large running race, and it made getting around the grounds tough at times. Rory was great at getting us through the gardens with as little trouble as possible. Our group really loved the market in town and the ability to get our food for a picnic in the garden.
