Every moment of this tour was my favorite! It was not just a tour of Versailles palace and grounds, but biking through the town and shopping in the market added to the experience so much! Our tour had moments of rain, but that did not make this trip any less enjoyable. The rain was quickly followed by sunshine. We all just adapted and the day was so lovely.

Elenore and team were really great. My husband and I were a little nervous, having not biked in decades. They were very accommodating. Best way to see the palace and town of Versailles!

Okay so it was a literal downpour in the am and the weather was miserable. We were all soaked to the bone and one of the kids was crying. Somehow our hero of a guide Agate kept smiling and kept our spirits high. She was able to do a last minute switch so we did the inside of the chateau in the am and the gardens in the afternoon. It was a brilliant move. My some miracle the sun came out in the afternoon and we had a glorious day seeing the gardens and biking around the public park of Versailles. Agate was so incredibly nice and so knowledgeable. She had historical information as well as interesting trivia and anecdotes. She is so personable and she really turned the day around. By the end of the trip everyone was smiling. Since she lives in Versailles, she was able to make great recommendations for where to go during break for food. I appreciated all her knowledge but it was really staying positive in the am when we were all wet and sad that really turned the day around. In the end we all had a fabulous time and learned a lot.

This is a great way to see Versailles & our tour guides were super nice & knowledgable. It's nice how everything was taken care for us (ticket-wise)—all you have to do is show up! The only thing was we felt it could've been an hour or two shorter. There was a fair amount of waiting around, whereas my husband & I are more go, go, go! type of people.

The tour itself started out easy. Our guide, Alistar, met us at dedicated site. We enjoyed a quick train ride to Versaille. Upon arrival in Versaille the bikes were waiting. Another person who I presume works for the company met us there. It was drizzling weather, and rain gear was to be provided. The company didn’t have it ready, we had to search bike packs for them ourselves.The guide was kind enough to lend out his own articles to help people. Hat, gloves, etc. Eventually we took off on the bikes assigned to us. We arrived at a local market where our guide gave us wonderful recommendations for food to purchase for the picnic later in the day. We enjoyed our time there and would have liked more. We fought the weather off and on for much of the day. The tour included more biking than expected at a faster pace than the group could sometimes keep up with due to bike issues. There was a lot of back and forth on the grounds that didn’t always seem to make sense logistically. Our guide was charming, moderately engaging…etc. my complaint was with the bikes themselves. We had at least 4 people on our 11 person tour that had issues. Brakes not working well, gears not changing properly, flat tires..etc. one person unable to stop due to poor breaks, ran into another oncoming biker. Both took a spill. A single water bottle provided on the bikes would have gone a long way as well. Overall it was a good experience, but this company needs to maintain bike fleet better.
