Two ways to do Versailles
The round trip, €130: your driver drops you off, leaves and comes back at the return time you choose when booking, no later than 5 hours after leaving Paris. It is the cheaper option, for travellers who know when they will be done.
The half day, €350: the car and driver are reserved for you for 5 hours door to door, and the driver waits on site throughout your visit. You leave when you are ready, with no return time to keep: the option families with children and travellers with reduced mobility choose. See the Versailles half day with a driver.
Both include: a Tesla sedan for up to 4 passengers, pickup at your address, tolls and parking, no guide, palace tickets not included.
