My family and I did the tour of Versailles by golf cart. We had excellent communication and coordination with Mia who met us in front of the palace and then led us to our wonderful guide, Milan. Milan was incredibly knowledgeable about French history, Louis XIV and subsequent kings, as well as Napoleon and the Napoleanic wars. He was also witty and engaging and also made it fun and interactive for our young daughter (which is not easy)! He was thorough and informed, quite polite and provided an excellent tour experience at Versailles; the golf cart transport was also an amazing benefit!

Our group of 5 had an awesome experience with our tour guide Alex. He showed us all around the gardens in the golf carts and was very witty and made it fun. He was great inside the palace too! We opted for the private pickup and drop off which was worth the extra cost, as it was very crowded leaving. Would highly recommend this tour!!

Disappointing. Booked tour with VIATOR & guide was with LIV ! Golf Cart Tour of Gardens (can rent for €42/hour) and Palace $680. Very expensive. Walked with a LIV person from Louis XV1 meeting point to garden entry ck point, continued on walking to Golf Cart rental point where we met our official tour guide inside the grounds for the first time. It took 20 plus minutes out of our 3 hour tour.

Alex was awesome. He looks like a tour guide, talks like a tour guide, and has a fun sense of humor. I can't imagine having had to brave the harsh weather and crowds with anyone else as our guide. The price may be steep, but having a private tour guide gives you the chance to ask questions and digress toward crude and funny anecdotes about the history of the royal family; these are the tidbits I'll remember most. That and the rainbow. We had a great day. Thanks, Alex. You're a gentleman and a scholar.
