Whilst Cityrama provided the bus to and from Versailles palace we were most unsatisfied. The palace was magnificent as was everything inside. However the crowds were simply terrible and it was very difficult to enjoy the tour. If there had been a fire or another problem I don't think many people would have survived. Another disappointment was that you had to buy further tickets to walk amongst the gardens. We found this most unfair. However I am not blaming your company for the crowds I would not recommend this tour.

Cityrama answers : The website informs that the days of Musical Foutains and Musical Gardens, the gardens' entrance tickets are not included in the price.

The Versailles Orientation was a great experience for our 10 year old granddaughter. She found the gardens, their expansiveness and design more exciting than the tour inside the palace, especially after the first few rooms. This was probably because inside became very crowded and she was unable to see and take photographs as easily as she wanted.
The bus was very comfortable.
Thank you for the experience.

The only small problem was with my voucher without images (as my e-mail software - pine - does not show images). But finally everything was OK.

The tour type was exactly what I expected. I have chosen it because my mother is ill and she can not run as fast as the tour guides do, so we could visit Versailles in our rithm.
