Less than an hour from central Paris, Versailles deserves a full day: the palace in the morning, the gardens and the Trianon estate in the afternoon. A guided tour helps you avoid the busiest rooms.
Good to know
- The palace is closed on Mondays.
- Tuesday and weekends are the busiest days.
- On some days from spring to autumn, the fountains in the gardens run to music; check the dates before you choose your day.
