Ablauf
Step into the heart of French history with a guided journey through the King’s State Apartments, prestigious rooms known as the Apartment of the Planets. Each reception room is a masterpiece of Baroque art, showcasing a sophisticated Greco-Roman theme where Roman names for the planets pair with legendary Greek myths to symbolize the absolute power of the Sun King. You will explore the Salon of Venus, the god of love, the Salon of Mars, the god of war, and the majestic Apollo Room, which served as Louis XIV's throne room. The experience reaches its peak in the legendary Hall of Mirrors, where 357 handcrafted mirrors reflect the golden light and manicured gardens through seventeen arched windows. Your guide will then reveal the Queen’s Chambers, where you can admire the bedchamber of Marie Antoinette. Throughout the tour, you will see how ancient mythology and French craftsmanship combined to create the world’s most opulent palace, all brought to life by your expert guide

About Versailles
Versailles, west of Paris, is the town built around the palace of Louis XIV, with its Hall of Mirrors and formal gardens.
The Palace of Versailles began as a hunting lodge of Louis XIII, and Louis XIV turned it into the seat of royal power, moving the court here in 1682. Its centrepiece is the Hall of Mirrors, seventy-three metres long, with seventeen mirrored arches facing the garden windows, where the Treaty of Versailles was signed in June 1919. The royal apartments, the Opera and the Chapel complete the palace.
