Versailles Bicycle Tour

Le Chateau de Versailles awaits you in all its grandeur as you return to the time period of the most famous French kings and queens. Allow us to bring you the most famous "house" in the world as few others have experienced it. After meeting at our Paris office we'll ride our bicycles to the nearest RER station for the quick trip to Versailles.

Once at Versailles, we'll first visit the village market to buy baguettes, cheese, ham, wine or whatever you desire for our picnic later in the Chateau's gardens. We will spend most of our day riding through the tree-lined gardens and the average Versailles tourist doesn't realize that they can only visit a small fraction of the gardens on foot. We’ll see it all!

Highlights of this tour include:

• The Versailles Gardens – these world-famous gardens are alone worth the trip to Versailles and are enjoyed by most customers even more than the Chateau itself.
• The Hall of Mirrors – site of the signing of the treaty that ended World War I and also offers a beautiful view over the gardens.
• The King’s State Apartments – bedrooms of both King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette.
• The Versailles Food Market – we’ll visit the famous Versailles market to shop for our picnic supplies. Bring our appetite and a wine bottle opener.
• The Picnic – we settle down at the far end of the Grand Canal for the best picnic of your life as everyone has too much of something and it becomes a feast.
• Marie Antoinette’s Hamlet – the quaint village she built herself in order to escape her court by pretending to be a peasant girl.
• Grand and Petit Trianons – built by Kings Louis XIV and XV respectively, they offer a fantastic view into the original Versailles and the opulence the royalty enjoyed.
