Experience the breathtaking opulence of Versailles on a day trip from Paris and drink in the elegant splendor of the Sun King Louis XIV's jaw-dropping royal estate.
Playground of the French monarchs, Versailles was the center of royal and political power until the French Revolution in 1789, which saw Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette forced to return to the capital.
Discover the State apartments of the King and Queen, the Royal Chapel, and mesmerising Hall of Mirrors, where 357 gleaming mirrors line the gold-adorned hall with crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.
You will also be given time to have a glimpse of the manicured gardens “à la française”, which mirror the majesty of the interior. Designed by the French landscaper André Le Nôtre in 1661, this 2,000-acre park is an architectural expanse of perspectives, parterres, fountains, and groves that define what a French garden should be.
