Paolo was an excellent guide! He was knowledgeable about the Chateau and was very personable. He used an iPad to help visualize the changes over several hundred years so we knew what we were seeing and how old different areas were. I was a single and didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. This was a much better way to see the palace than trying to go through on your with an audio guide. Would definitely recommend this tour!

He was a great guide.
I appreciated the extra touch of the iPad to give us a great perspective.

Excellent private tour! Paolo really knows his stuff and we all really enjoyed hearing everything he had to say. Would highly recommend this tour!

Hands down the best tour we've ever been on. Paolo was an exceptional host and the whole experience flowed so smoothly. Feel like we got so much more out of visiting the Palace of Versailles and the length of the tour was perfect to allow for some extra exploring. Thanks Paolo!

Our tour with Paola was fantastic! He chose a perfect meeting spot away from the crowds. He navigated us through the entrance of Versailles quickly. He thoroughly explained the history of the building, answered any and all questions and spoke beautiful English. He brought an iPad along to illustrate anything that is better explained visually. The tour also included a walk through a portion of the gardens (with him) which typically is not offered on other tours. I would 10/10 recommend this tour and when we return, I will look for this experience again with Paolo.
