Skip-the-Line Versailles Palace Tour by Train from Paris

1.Skip-the-Line Versailles Palace Tour by Train from Paris

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 883 reviews · 4h 30m · from $94Our pick

Travel from central Paris to Versailles by RER train with an escort, then tour the palace and gardens with an English-speaking guide. Expect the Hall of Mirrors, royal apartments, Musical Gardens or Fountain Show, and plenty of walking. Guides such as Julie and Berrick are praised for clear explanations and calm organization.

“Great experience. Everyone was extremely professional, communicated clearly and made sure we had a great experience during our visit to the palace. Most importantly, our tour consisted of only 2 people plus the guide, and nothing was cancelled. I highly recommend this tour package due to their extremely high professionalism, knowledge and attitude.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 811 reviews · 1 day · from $49

Meet at Napoli Centrale, collect your train and entrance tickets, then ride 40 minutes to Pompeii for a two-hour guided visit. Guides including Maria, Anna, and Bernadetta have been praised for clear storytelling. Return independently by train after seeing temples, baths, theaters, and preserved homes.

“Tour guide was amazing. No bus specifically for the tour. Bus to Pompeii was full and tour officials just said “oh well you just find your own way and if you miss the meet up time you kiss the tour”. We had to pay for a taxi up, luckily taxi man saw the opportunity and offered cheaper services because he saw 10+ from the same group tour that were misleading sans had no ride to the tour that started in 15 min”

Sorrento: Herculaneum Skip-the-Line Tour by Express Train

4.Herculaneum Skip-the-Line Tour by Express Train

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 97 reviews · 4 - 8 hours · from $89

From Sorrento, take a round-trip express train to Herculaneum and join a two-hour English tour with a Campania Region guide. Giovanni, Fabio, Marili, Claudia, Nello, and others have led recent tours. Expect preserved homes, ancient artifacts, a short walk from the station, and optional Pompeii add-on.

“After reading a few negative reviews I was a little apprehensive about this trip but it ended up being a holiday highlight. The transport was explained to us at the train station and we were able to use the tourist train which has just started running. Clear stops so no issues with a language barrier and guaranteed seats. Fabio was a great guide at Herculaneum and there was a lot to see. Many more intact buildings than at Pompeii so a fascinating insight into life before the eruption. Straightforward to catch the train back and a short 10 minute walk to the station. Highly recommended - I enjoyed this more…”

Start with priority entry to Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper and a guided look at Santa Maria delle Grazie. Then walk to Sforza Castle, see the Arch of Peace, and ride Milan’s 1930s tram through fashion streets toward La Scala and the Duomo.

“I've got to admit, I'm not massively into art, but I knew this was something I needed to do and it did not disappoint. It exceeded all my expectations and would urge everyone to take the trip to see this magnificent painting. Our tour guide was amazing - could not fault her. She stayed with us for nearly the full day and took us all to the surrounding areas and told us the history of the buildings. A perfect day spent in Milan!”
