This was the Highlight of the trip. This tour is a must if you are planning a 4 day trip to Paris. Our tour-guide Richard could not been more perfect. Informative, experienced, a real Gentleman. The Market, the Gardens, the palace, in a single word exquisite!!!!

The tour starts by catching a train. This was not a problem as our guide and the rest of the touring party were easily located. My wife and I immediately felt comfortable because our guide was also Australian. Jess lives and works in Paris. She was terrific in that she was attentive to ALL of her guests, so I didn't think anyone should have felt left-out or irrelevant. The market we went to was our first ever, so it was very interesting for us and an eye-opener in terms of what was available. Immediate access to the gardens was a relief. For me the gardens were the highlight of the tour but that may be because I'm from an area where we have a bit more space and the gardens provided that relief from the crowds. Lunch by the lake was delightful; helped along by members of our touring group (not Aussies) who were all ready for a chat and to share the wine that had been purchased previously at the market. The palace buildings were amazing, but it was warm and crowded; don't expect to have the luxury of admiring its wonders alone. At the end of the tour Jess escorted us back to Paris and made sure we got off at our appropriate stops. Be prepared to walk and, to get full value from the experience, start with an empty belly.
