Our bus driver, Pascale, was amazing. He provided lots of local knowledge on our way to both locations and was such a lovely person. We would have gladly spent all day with him!

The day trip to Versailles and Giverny was everything we hoped it would be. Laura, the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about Versailles history and had a lot of interesting facts that were shared. Frederick, our driver, was on time for both pickups and he was quite knowledgeable as well about both Versailles and Monet/Giverny. He was a wiz in handling the Paris traffic.

The Versailles tour was great. The guide was wonderful. The Giverny tour was on our own which wasn’t described.

Versailles was crowded as expected but your guide was very good. Monet’s garden was lovely. Can driver Frederic very helpful.

Do not go on this half day tour of Versailles. First, the tour guide was late, then they grouped us with people on a longer tour of Versailles and the guide spent a half an hour in ONE room. We know because we timed it. We handed back our audios so we could move ahead and see more of the palace. So basically we didn't get an audio guided tour. The half day tour of Monet’s Garden was great.

Even in the pouring rain, this trip was fabulous. The van, which was full, was extremely comfortable and the driver was very friendly and helpful. We were dropped off at Versailles where we met our tour guide, Valerie, who was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was wonderful and I saw much, much more of Versailles than I had on a previous trip. We did not have to stand in the ridiculously long line to get in and Valerie paced herself so that we were never pushed or crowded in the rooms. We had lunch at restaurant across the street from the palace, which was included. We were given two choices. The food was excellent and included an entree, salad, drinks and dessert. We were picked up at the restaurant and driven to Giverny, and, again, in the pouring rain this place was magnificent. We had plenty of time to explore on our own. I highly recommend this tour. What a memorable, beautiful day!

Our guide picked us up at our Paris hotel and had us at the group entrance about 20 minutes before the official opening. There was one huge group just arriving. Our guide got us to entrance (which is the one to use to go to the Lily Pond Gardens first) so we were the first persons in. They let us in before the official opening. Since we knew from Rick Steves tour book exactly how to go to get to the Lilly Ponds from the group entrance, we were the first ones there and got to enjoy their beauty with very few tourists despite being high season. Our guide was prompt in picking us up at the end of our time (we booked an independent option for touring at the gardens on our own) and had us back to paris efficiently. Using Paris Webservices definitely was worth every penny.

Our Driver was late picking us up, although he was very nice. Then he was late picking us back up to take us to the next tour. The directions on the pick up point was awful on the second trip, I was ready to go back to room and call it a day. The visit to the Versailles was good

They did an excellent job... was very pleased with them. Yes, it was expensive but we felt it was worth it.

<p>This was a very expensive tour!! I will admit it was nice to be picked up at our hotel instead of finding a meeting place in the big city of Paris. Our driver was very friendly and prompt. Meeting our tour guide at Versailles was easy and a very informative tour even though our daughter had many problems with her headphones. We had a delicious lunch in a local restaurant. Asked for some extra time so we could enjoy irhe meal. We called and the driver was accommodating and prompt. Time at the Palace was short and we really didn't have enough time to enjoy or view all of the gardens. Taking a little extra time for lunch meant that we got to Monets Garden a little late. Driver offered us extra time and said he would wait for us. Leaving Paris for the day was to go out into the country was a welcome change.</p>
