VERSAILLES SPECIAL

Visit of Versailles Palace followed by the musical fountain display 

 

Versailles represents a reminder of the grandeur of classical French art. The lavish decoration and layout of the entire site reflect the will of King Louis XIV, known as the "Sun King". Our guide will provide full explanations on the palace and enthrall clients with tales of the French Kings and Queens. The musical fountains revive the reign of King Louis XIV. He ordered remarkable works in order to provide the fountains and the ponds 
with 1,333 gallons of water necessary for one hour festival displays. A unique fountain display not to be missed.
