TRAFFIC IN PARIS:
We would like to inform you that our company is not responsible for the traffic between Paris and Versailles, which can sometimes exceed an hour of travel time. That's why we only accept pickups in the western part of Paris and select districts to avoid long journeys in our vehicles.
To make your life easier and reduce your travel time, we recommend the following steps:
Departure to Versailles:
We advise you to choose a meeting point in the western part of Paris. This way, the driver will have more time to get to Versailles, ensuring that you don't miss your guide at Versailles.
Return to Paris:
If you find yourself in the middle or east of Paris, we also recommend selecting a meeting point in the western part of Paris, such as near the Eiffel Tower. You can then use the metro to reach your destination. By opting for a strategic meeting point, you can optimize your journey to or from Versailles. We provide additional time for the driver to reach Versailles because we understand the importance of not missing your guide at Versailles. If you need specific advice on meeting points or metro routes, please don't hesitate to contact us. We are here to help make your trip as enjoyable as possible.
