PALACE OF VERSAILLES, FRANCE
Versailles was once an important location where governmental affairs were conducted, and political decisions made. Its glory is truly a sight to be seen. Aside from its amazing architecture, Versailles’ history also makes the trip a must on anyone’s France to-do list. As the seat of political power, Versailles naturally became the cradle of the French Revolution. It was there that Marie-Antoinette was famously alleged to have said, in response to the fact that the French people were starving, “let them eat cake”. Both the King and the Queen were later executed and feudalism in France was abolished. We will be picked up by private coach after lunch. Once at the Chateau, we will take in the magnificent gardens and fountains, before a private guide takes us inside the palace to learn about the palace’s history and the people of the time.What to bring: Walking shoes, water, hat, and sunscreen.Duration: 4 hoursAnticipated date: Tuesday, July 7, 2026Deadline to register: Saturday, May 30, 2026*Date subject to change.
