A complete ripoff and scam! With the thousands of people all shuffling along from the train stop and then a very "official" looking lady steps in front of the crowd and says tickets to the left please. Well from reading the Versailles website the ticketing office for individuals is indeed on the left hand side. Just several hundred feet further. But by the time my doubt set in, I have already been standing in line for 45 min because this place has two workers for the 100 people that just jumped in line. I ended up paying 8 Euro OVER what the official chateau ticket office sells...and that didn't even include everything the official ticket does! Unbelievable!!! Because of the seemingly appropriate location they get to ripoff hundreds of unsuspecting, tired tourists because the say "official". Absolute bull! So this is my warning to any unususpecting visitor...just keep walking right past Office de Tourisme de Versailles! read more
