Stu is immensely knowledgeable and connected and quite talented at his craft. I love the serendipitous moments when you are around folks doing what they love. It is almost a superpower. Stu leads amazing tours of Paris and the palace.

Nikki is a perpetual source of happy and manages the logistics of where you need to be. It is such a pleasure to have a great tour and a really really well run experience. They really care to ensure you have a fabulous experience.

Stu and Nikki manage not only your learning but your experience. This is so unique.

Our Versailles Tour was led for the first part by Pascal who is also statistically awesome. An expert and perhaps one of the world's most interesting men. Seriously he could star in a Heineken commercial. A family on our tour brought their 5 and 8 year old kids and you can imagine the complexities that adds to any tour. Especially 9 hour tours. Pascal managed and engaged with hose kids like Maria Montessori. Brave family for taking them but what could have been so derailing was manged in a way that was inspiring.

Seeing folks do what they love and doing well is contagious.

You should have no second thoughts about booking anything with Stu and Nikki as along as you are somewhat decent shape and know how to ride a bike and have some serious interest in France. read less

The tour started early with the back entrance to Versailles We avoided the crowds and left enough time to see the rest of the palace with a lunch trip to the local market to shop for our own food before settling at a picturesque spot just like to the picture for the tour. There is no question that a bike is needed to get a proper perspective of Versailles. All the highlighted spots were included on the tour. An added benefit was a slight workout for me. Unfortunately, one lady had to drop out of the tour because she hasn't been on a bike for years and was not comfortable in riding one even though the physical demand was very modest at best.

At the end of the day, I gained an appreciation of the magnitude of this historical site and a better understanding of French history. The tour guide, Nicholas, was very patient in answering all the questions and describing significant items of interest. Overall, this was one of the highlights of my Paris trip. read less

It was a day that we will always remember. Nicky and Stu were great hosts and filled our days with special memories of French markets and bike riding through Versailles' magical gardens. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to do something in Versailles that's a little out of the box. read less

This thing was ridiculously worth the price. Like, the amount of money you pay for these guides to hang out with you for 8-10 hours doesn't seem like enough. You'll be lucky if you can book tickets a few months out as I hear it's booking up fast. I can't imagine anyone being dissatisfied with one of their tours. Book now!! read less

Stu and Niki are so great from the beginning. Very kind, excited and happy to have us, they summarized our tour and got us prepared for our great evening. We were given choice of bikes, assisted in adjusting for proper and safe fit, as well as offered safety gear and bike attachments to help us carry our bags. These guys are experts, with the studies, degrees and expertise to back it up. They have had loads of experience and Stu was raised in Paris so knows everything. They made the tour relaxed and personalized, small groups where everyone felt like friends and didn’t waste time but allowed all the time we wanted for photos and questions at any spot along the way. We were able to see the most popular tourist destinations without feeling much like we were in a tour at all. Biking makes getting around so quick and easy I would prefer it to walking any city now that I have experienced it. It was also v eu safe. They took the time to set up routes that minimize interactions with traffic and vehicles and know when to be extra cautious. We ended the evening on a beautiful boat tour and they even brought wine for us to enjoy. We felt like we spent the evening with old friends showing us their hometown, we can’t recommend enough! read less

The night tour of Paris and the full day at Versailles… and they were both spectacular! I cant even put into words how perfect these tours were, but I’m going to try!

Firstly you would NEVER see so much of Paris or Versailles if you were walking for days, as you can on a bicycle in a few hours. Secondly, there isn’t an audioguide or group tour that could match the feeling of being on a personal small group trip with these guys. Their knowledge and passion for Paris and surrounds makes you feel like you’re hanging out with friends, not walking around like a tourist. The experience is intimate, warm and inspiring.

Paris and Versailles are spectacular places- treat yourself to see them in style. Stu and Nikki... we loved you guys and we cant wait to be back next year and do these two tours again with our family. You should be so proud of yourselves, you’ve got something magical going on.

I never write reviews, but seriously DO this tour. We were so damn glad we did. read less
