My wife and I are traveling to Paris in June. One of the spots we will visit is Versailles. My question is will the Paris Pass enable us to take part in the various tours i.e. the Garden Tours, or will we have to purchase separate tickets for those. Thanks in advance. Jeff
DO NOT buy Paris Pass, is wast of money, Paris Museum pass is better value, and you have more to choose.
Just for compensation, Paris Pass for 2 days 97 Euros, Paris Museum pass 32 Euros. You can get carne tickets if you need metro, like going to Versaillis, but Paris is an City where you walk to see everything.
The Paris Museum pass do cover entrance to the Versailles,the gardens and many other happenings, like the water fountain display.
There are over 60 attractions covered by the pass and you will get the list when you buy the pass, which can be purchased for 2.4. or 6 days.

You can get it on line or you can buy it at any of the major attractions like Louvre or some of the big Metro stations will sell it.
Also it will allow you fast entrance to the attractions and you do not need to Q. BTW Louvre is free the first Sunday of every month.
Happy travels

Because so many people consider it a must-see destination, Versailles attracts more than 3 million visitors a year. The best way to avoid the queues is to arrive first thing in the morning. If you're interested in just the Grands Appartements, another good time to get in line is about 3:30-4:00pm. The queues are longest on Tuesday, when many of Paris' museums are closed.
It pays to be nosy sometimes. Really, just before I entered the Versailles Palace, I nosed around an obscure tourist office just outside of the palace gates. Since there was hardly anyone there, I flooded the poor clerk with all sorts of annoying questions. It paid off. In a bid to get rid of me, she advised me to grab a "passport" (€20) that would allow:
-> entry to multiple palace areas and all the Trianon Gardens
->priority access ( no **** queues! )
-> Usage of an audio guide.
Just the thing for a restless person like me. I grab it of course and later recalled frustrated sods queuing up for the same thing at the Palace itself.
Of course, you don't need the passport if you have the musuem pass. The pass covers both the Trianon palaces and the Chateau.
The first I've mentioned the bed is very small and it seems French king weren’t tall. :-) In any way, they really lived like royal persons. Sometimes I'd like to have the same apartments they had. Final decoration of the rooms was received in 1671-1681.
This is very large warehouse-sized room at 394 feet long and 43 feet wide. Here 33 paintings depicting war-scenes from the Battle of Tolbiac to the Wagram, 82 busts of warriers and 16 bronze plaques bearing names of heros who died for France complete the war theme. The most famous of the paintings is the Battle of Taillebourge by Delacroix.
It is the richest room for XVII century, full of mirrors – the most luxury thing of those times. The Hall of Mirrors was built in 1678-1684 instead of terrace as a symbol of the power of the absolute monarch. The paintings on the ceiling show Louis XIV as Roman emperor, great administrator of the kingdom and a victor over foreign power.
