"A GUIDED WALKING TOUR OF THE CITY" Versailles by ViajesdelMundo

Versailles Travel Guide: 657 reviews and 2,428 photos

with 'PEDMAR' !!

I toured the Palace with my dear Mother on my first trip to France in 1977.

This day in Versailles was also special, as we had as our guide, 'Pedmar', of VT fame! He was so gracious to spend the entire day showing us around the area, including some back streets, markets, and favorite shops. Therefore, I will make a Travelogue of my photos from this day, but of course, if you want great detailed info about Versailles, you must go to PEDMAR's pages.

If I should get to Paris as I hope, I will certainly want to visit Versailles as well. Thanks for the great introduction.
