Full Description
Step into the grandeur of French royalty with a 1-day full-access ticket to the legendary Palace of Versailles and its vast gardens. This UNESCO World Heritage Site just outside Paris is a symbol of opulence, power, and history.
Begin your journey through the palace’s State Apartments, where King Louis XIV—the “Sun King”—held court. Admire the world-renowned Hall of Mirrors, a stunning gallery filled with chandeliers, reflective glass, and gilded detail.
Continue your exploration of the Versailles Gardens, spanning over 800 hectares. Designed by André Le Nôtre, these gardens are masterpieces of French landscape architecture, complete with fountains, sculptures, and tree-lined pathways. During the show season (April to October), enjoy the Musical Gardens or be dazzled by the Fountain Shows, where water dances to baroque music.
This ticket also includes access to the Grand Trianon and Petit Trianon, built as private retreats for the royal family. Discover the charming Marie Antoinette Estate, where the queen sought simplicity and peace away from palace life.
If visiting between November and March, you’ll have access to the Horace Vernet temporary exhibition, a historical art exhibit within the palace.
Spend a full day immersing yourself in the history, art, and beauty that define the Palace of Versailles.
