We weren’t allowed entrance to the tour because our screen shot picture of the ticket wouldn’t respond to the scanner. We didn’t have cell service to open the e-ticket.

The experience could be improved by advising customers that the gardens are free to enter and the charge is purely for an audio tour which you have to down load prior to the tip. This audio tour has nothing whatsoever to do with any official tours which are arranged by the Palace. I tried to cancel the booking but when I clicked on the link to do this there was no booking to show. I have tried contact tripadvisor numerous times for a refund but have not received a response. Do not book this tour through Trip advisor it’s a rip off. If you do want to book of tour of the inside of Versailles use the official website. I’m extremely disappointed in this service.

You make me to buy tickets for audio guide instead of entry ticket. Not recommend ! Still waiting for my money back.

We aren’t much for group tours so we quite enjoyed listening to this as we walked around the gardens. Would do it again for sure!

Audio is free when you pay for entrance to the garden therefore it is better to pay for the entrance which is €10 rather than this audio tour
