Description:

Take the train from Paris to the resplendent Palace of Versailles and marvel at its grandeur and the pristine condition of its interior and gardens. Wander through the palace rooms and see where Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI extravagantly entertained during a time of revolt in French history.

Step back in time as you enter the palace into the world of French royalty and aristocracy, worlds apart from modern-day Paris. Feel the magic of the state rooms and see firsthand the vast luxury and riches that perfectly demonstrate the extravagance of this 18th-century monarchy.

Explore the long halls and elegant rooms; see where Louis XVI held ceremonies for his comrades, and the spot where Marie Antoinette allegedly “ate her cake.” Make your way through the King and Queen's apartments, the famous Hall of Mirrors, and the Salon of Abundance, all the while learning of the history of the palace from your expert guide.

Continue outside to the stunning gardens, which span more than 1,800 acres (724 ha). Stroll past classic sculptures, opulent fountains, and perfectly manicured lawns. This is a perfect opportunity to take some memorable photos.
