Overview

The Versailles at Sunset Bike Tour is a magical evening and the chance to see Versailles in the glow of sunset. For a limited number of Saturdays in the summer, the gardens will be brought to life with special effects, music, lighting, and a stunning fireworks display.

Your tour will begin in central Paris where your guide will help you board a train to Versailles where you'll grab some snacks (cost of supplies not included) as well as get fitted for your bikes. From here, you will enjoy a ride around the sprawling gardens of Versailles with a glass of bubbly, exclusive after-hours access to the Chateau, as well as a break along the Grand Canal as the sun sets for a snack.

You'll get to see Versailles at its very best - at sunset, with limited people inside the palace, and with the magical fountain show. At the end of the evening, you'll be wowed by a spectacular fireworks display over the Grand Canal. This is the best way to experience Versailles and an evening you'll never forget.

OJ was an amazing and fun guide! We had a great time on this tour - two moms, and three teenagers. We are travelers who normally do everything on our own, and once or twice each trip treat ourselves to a guided tour. Last year we did Fat Tire's tour in Munich, and so wanted to use them again in France. Highly Recommend! Versailles at sunset with all the fountains and gardens was the highlight of our time in France! They made everything so easy and it was a great value even though it is a little costly!

Well organised tour. The tour guides are friendly and helpful. The bike ride is enjoyable, you ride along the old laneways of Versailles. The picnic opportunity is a nice touch and a chance to meet the others on the tour and see the palace from a different perspective. You will still require some level of fitness to walk around the formal gardens within the palace as they are very extensive with a lot of walking required If you do the sunset tour plan on a very late night as the fireworks do not commence until around 11.15pm, and the last train leaves around midnight. My advice is to find a spot on the stairs to sit where you can look over the gardens and fountains and watch the fireworks, otherwise you are standing for a very long time. The palace is well worth the visit, absolutely amazing and very beautiful at night.

Fat Tyre Tours communicated very well and the tour took place in spite of protests going on disrupting many other events at the time. Everything was on time. Matt(hew), our guide, was relaxed, informative and fun to be with. He very professionally handled the situation when it turned out that one of our group members couldn't really cycle! The market in Versailles was somewhat disappointing; perhaps because I was expecting a more traditional, farm-style market with lots of fresh products for the picnic. The cycling, sights in the gardens, picnic, tour of the chateau and performances inside the chateau, as well as fountains - and fireworks shows afterwards, were all very special and definitely a more rewarding way of experiencing Versailles than usual. It is a long day, ending back in Paris at 2 am and thus not for the faint-hearted, but for us South Africans a once in a lifetime experience not to be missed!
