Scootin' Through Versailles Parks
Meander48542396851, Dec 2024
We had a wonderful time scootin' around the huge Versailles park, with JB. We would never have been able to walk or see the Grand Trianon, Petit Trianon or the Grand Canal... Which was very grand. We felt safe and well informed by our guide JB. He took wonderful photos and videos of us as we explored,.. and sent them to us right away. A NEW WAY TO VISIT VERSAILLES.

thank you for your review. Yes indeed, the Grand Canal is huge. It took over eleven years to build and is over 1600 metres long.
A fantastic perpective.
With pleasure
Electric bike and walk the Versailles Gardens & grounds.
Joanne D, Dec 2024
This was a wonderful way to see the Gardens and grounds of Versailles from top to bottom and side to side, outdoors in the fresh air on a beautiful day. JB was very patient, instructing us on how to use the electric bike. He provided everything we needed, including windbreakers & the GoPro to film us. He gave us the camera SD card after the tour as a record of our experience. We stopped for a coffee break between walking the Gardens and biking around the grounds, a total of 4 hours. I highly recommend this thoughtfully planned tour, with a built-in history lesson of Versailles and King Louis XIV.

Hello,
Thank you so much for this review, and I'm glad you enjoyed discovering the Sun King's gardens and the Park.
The idea is to be able to stroll around the 77 hectares of the Gardens, see the groves, the most beautiful and hidden fountains, but also go through the Park and see this great perspective from the chateau to the end of the Grand Canal.
I hope that with the SD card, you'll be able to make a nice souvenir film. Don't hesitate to send it to me :)
Hope to see you again for more discoveries.
JB
So much fun!!
Jamie_N, Dec 2024
This was an absolute blast. It’s was such a fun way to see the grounds of Versailles. JB was great and thinks of everything. I especially loved that he takes a lot of photos and videos and gives them to you at the end of the tour. I would highly recommend.

Hi, Jamie,
Thank you for this review and I'm glad you enjoyed this discovery, which combines a visit to the Parc du Chateau with its 600 hectares and a tour of the gardens.
It's fun to ride an electric scooter through the Park and then take a nice walk through the gardens.
I want everyone to enjoy their visit without having their nose on their phone to take photos. That's why I'm in charge of everything.
Thanks for everything and I look forward to seeing you.
JB
Most fun way to see Versailles
Hilary_G, May 2025
What a brilliant afternoon we had discovering the gardens of the palace of Versailles and the environs of Versaille’s grand royal houses. J-B was an excellent, very knowledgable and thoughtful guide with a real sense of fun. The electric “trottinettes’ are scooters with a difference that we have not seen in England. They are large with fat tyres for stability and a platform so your feet are side by side so much more comfortable than an ordinary scooter and so much fun! J-B trains you in how to use them and it didn’t take long till we were off rolling down the grand avenues towards the palace. We are 68 and 70 years old, used to cycling so we really got into it! The electric scooters give you the opportunity to get a sense of the immense scale of the palace grounds. Had great smiles on our faces yesterday and today looking at the pictures and videos that J-B sent. J-B even indulged our love of languages by doing the tour in French and coping patiently with our own attempts to speak the language! Couldn’t recommend it more.
