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

My husband and I really enjoyed this experience! It was a leisurely way to explore the estate by bike with scenic stops along the way, a pleasant picnic by the canal, and visits to Trianon, Petite Trianon, Queen’s Hamlet, and the gardens. The bikes are comfy and the ride is mostly flat. Our guide, Jude, was knowledgeable and personable. Note that it’s basically an all-day experience if you also want to go I side the Chateau. We’d recommend it!

Jude, our tour guide, was fantastic. He was extremely patient, well spoken, easy to speak with and pleasant to be around. He provided great insight into Versailles. We would definitely recommend to anyone with kids.

Great fun even in the cold, wind, and rain. Rachael was amazingly quick witted and a font of information; She gave the small group choices within the venue-customizing the tour a little due to the weather. Everyone was thrilled with how much we can see within the grounds of the palace in the time allotted. We would do again and next time add in the bike city tour too

I had the best time on the bike tour of Versailles! The guide, David, was friendly and fun and shared really great historical information to help us understand what we were seeing. The pacing of the tour was great with enough biking to feel active but not so much that I was exhausted. I also really appreciated that the tour actually ends at the palace and allows you all the time you want to explore on your own. It was exactly the right balance of structure and flexibility that made for a great day. Highly recommend!

Marly was a great guide. We had ample free time and learned a lot from her wealth of knowledge. It was an easy bike ride and we rode away from the crowds. We were able to see parts of the garden that most cannot see.
