Overview

Our bike tours were one of the first to hit the Paris bike scene nearly 2 decades ago, and we like to keep that feeling of community on tour. For this reason, and unlike other bike tours of Versailles, we limit our group sizes. We also warmly welcome you at our very own café, and our guide rides the train to Versailles with you- so you’re taken care of the whole way. Join our family for a day, and experience our version of Versailles!

We’ve planned an unforgettable day trip from Paris, cruising through the town of Versailles for the amazing local market, heading into Versailles’ grounds & gardens, Marie Antoinette’s village, and the Trianons. After the picnic, we make our way to the Chateau. You’ll then explore the palace at your own pace.

Our tour makes history accessible. It’s about getting the juicy important details of Versailles plus the fun stories and quirky anecdotes. It’s simply about an unforgettable day in the countryside, tickets included

Great tour!! Our guide David took us to some really cool places on the palace grounds that were even more interesting than the palace itself, and we definitely would’ve missed out on those spots without his guidance. It rained a lot on our tour, but he brought ponchos for us and we still had a great time. Would totally recommend!!

Jude was a fantastic tour guide. Very personable and knowledgeable with lots of fun and interesting historical facts. And I enjoyed going to the open market to pick out lunch! Two thumbs up!

Gorgeous tour in Versailles! Our guide Marley was energetic, funny, and very knowledgable about French history. She had great recommendations for everything from which vendors to get the best picnic fare from, to where to find the best photo spots in Versailles, to what to look out for at each of the main points of attraction. The tour was very well organized every step of the way and the bikes were very comfortable. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a lovely day trip during their Paris stay!

I think our guide mixed up the tours because we didn't sign up to stop at the market for an hour and we still had a 30-minute picnic both of which caused us to get caught in a thunderstorm and the guided didn't seem concerned that we almost missed our admission into Versailles which was the main point of interest for us. We spent more time resting than biking which caused us to get stuck at the Petit Trianon in a thunderstorm and also caused us a late return to return the bikes, as well as having to ride in the rain. Our tickets for Versailles were for 15:30 and we made it by 17:00 only because we ran from the bike storage to the palace and still almost didn't get admitted plus the audio guides were no longer available. Luckily our guide had called ahead so we were allowed into the palace or the main reason for our trip to Versailles would have been removed. This all could have been avoided if we had skipped the unscheduled market stop.
