All good. 6 hours was good. Do full day if you don’t want to rush through the gardens. Guide was good.

Miriam was a super thorough and friendly guide, guiding through the heart of the chateau on a very busy weekend. She answered all the random questions we had as well. It's so much to take in and she helped make the most of it. Highly recommend!

Our guide clearly explained the Louis' and helped me better understand their historical significance. Her comments on Marie Anointte were also illuminating. Our guide should either wear a piece of bright clothing or carry a flag so that she might be more easily found in the crowds. Our guide was thoughtful, informative, and personable.
