Private Versailles Full Day Bike Tour
Upon our tour’s departure, we will ride to the famous city market to shop for our picnic supplies (cost not included). Then, we’ll cruise through the Château’s enormous grounds along a network of fantastic trails and tree-lined paths, pausing along the way to share the rich history of the palace and French monarchy. Next, it’s on to our picnic at the end of the Grand Canal where we’ll settle down for a royal feast.
After lunch, we’ll continue through the grounds to visit Marie Antoinette’s Hamlet and the Petit Trianon. Finally, our bike tour offers you skip-the-line access to the Château to avoid the tremendously long lines. See the room where Marie Antoinette’s guards were killed as they protected her from the mob at the beginning of the Revolution. Walk through the breathtaking Hall of Mirrors where King Louis greeted guests, and centuries later the Treaty of Versailles was signed to end World War I. Ride with us and you will explore exponentially more of the 2,000+ acres of royal property than you would ever be able to see on your own.
If you have children or infants in your group, please let us know if you need any children bikes (20″ or 24″), baby seats, trailers, or tandems in the “Comments” section during check out to ensure that we are able to reserve these for you.
