How to get to Versailles from Paris

Visit Versailles with The Tour Guy!

Located only a 24 Km away from Paris, The palace was originally built by Louis XIII as a hunting lodge. It wasn’t turned into a palace until Louis XIII’s son, the famous Louis XIV, decided to do so. The Château de Versailles housed the kings and queens of France until they were chased out in 1789 during the French Revolution. But luckily for us, the Palace of Versailles still stands in all its glory.

I had to take the RER L to the Rive Duate station in Versailles last time because the C line was closed due to the Seine being flooded at the time. It's a quieter line to Versailles, no crowds at all and the walk to the palace took10 to 15 minutes. SO you can take RER C or the RER L from the center of Paris. FYI.

Wish I had seen this video earlier. Was literally there last week and spent 2 hours in the line for Versailles. Well worth it though, Versailles is awesome!

I've done this before and I'm rewatching the video for nostalgia. Great content as always

Hi. Where did you get that jacket? Very cool.

Public transportation looks time-consuming! I will definitely do your tour when I am in Paris.

What is the easiest route for us (family of 4) coming from 45 Rue De la Victoire to Versaille. Appreciate your help.

Do we have to validate this ticket before getting into the train, Thanks

Transilien L also goes to Versailles from Paris Saint-Lazare, but it goes to Versailles Rive-Droite which is at a 20 minute walk to the Chateau but I think you need a special ticket for that (not the RER C one that you mentioned in the video) also to get there I recommend buying a Navigo Decouverte card for 5 euro and then put a weekly pass for all zones, 1-5(23 euro as of 2019) and you just tap and go (the downside of this card is that is personal and you have to put a photo onto it, but there are photo booths at almost any station in Paris and 4 photos cost 4-5 euro, and you can only charge a weekly pass from Monday to Thursday).

can we travel to Versailles using Navigo Decouverte pass and not buy separate tickets.

Is paris museum pass is valid in palace of Versailles

[akengbesso]

Paris is much more beautiful than London, frankly.

Make sure to keep that same ticket because you will need it to leave the station.

Bless your heart. You visited Paris and the simplest of French words, e.g.; “gauche, ” which is utterly beyond your ability to pronounce correctly. Next, let’s try “Trianon.” Good, practical video which deserves better narration.
