Review of a private Versailles tour from Paris with skip-the-line entry, a guide, gardens, and an optional Marie Antoinette upgrade.
“DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. Danis is not a good operator. Poor communication. Untimely responses. They also offered a partial refund because the guide couldn’t show up to our tour and they still have not provided the refund—AND THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO MY REPEATED REQUESTS. I have taken many tours through Viator and this is the worst operation I’ve ever dealt with.”
