Private ride from Paris to Versailles, fully adaptable to your group. Scenic, quiet routes and easy electric bikes make it ideal for families, mixed levels, and multi-generational guests.
What you will experience
A private start from Paris
Meet your guide in Paris (flexible start time) and get comfortably fitted with your electric bike. After a short introduction, you’ll leave the city smoothly along quiet bike paths.
This private experience adapts to your group. Different riding levels, families with children, or multi-generational groups are all welcome.
A route designed around you
Ride through Saint-Cloud Park and the Fausses-Reposes Forest, enjoying panoramic views and peaceful paths.
The itinerary can be adjusted to suit your group — from a full ride from Paris to a shorter cycling experience starting directly in Versailles.
Versailles, your way
At the Notre-Dame Market, select high-quality fresh products for your picnic (at your own expense) — seasonal fruits, artisan cheeses, freshly baked bread, and local specialties from one of the region’s most vibrant markets.
Enjoy lunch by the Grand Canal or meet non-cycling family members at agreed points such as the market, picnic area, or Petit Trianon. You’ll then visit the Petit Trianon and Marie-Antoinette’s Hamlet at your own pace, while your guide waits near the bikes. Bikes can also be arranged in Versailles for guests who prefer a shorter and easier ride within the estate.
Freedom to explore
After visiting the estate, you are free to explore the Palace of Versailles independently, including the Hall of Mirrors and the royal apartments.
A licensed professional guide can be arranged on request (optional) for a more in-depth visit.
While you enjoy your time inside the Palace and gardens, the in aeri team takes care of bringing the electric bikes back to Paris — no need to worry about logistics.
You can then return to Paris whenever you wish, easily by train (€2.55 per person), or by Uber/taxi. Your guide will provide clear instructions for your return. Return transportation is at your own expense.

“Navigating over various terrains (city streets, cobblestone, forests, parks, biking trails) kept the ride interesting.”
We loved this tour from beginning to end! Navigating over various terrains (city streets, cobblestone, forests, parks, biking trails) kept the ride interesting, and breaking up the day at the city market with lunch by the canal was phenomenal! Renaud even arranged an exceptional private tour guide at the palace for us. What a beautiful, fun day we had- so much so that we would love to do it again the next time we are in Paris!

“We all enjoyed it so much! A great way to see Versailles!”
We had a family of 9 - 5 adults and 4 kids under the age of 11 - we all enjoyed it so much! A great way to see Versailles! Renard was wonderful with the kids and took the time to be sure everyone felt comfortable! The ride was so beautiful and the train ride back was really nice and easy!

“I was a bit worried about riding bikes in a busy city. He is a true professional and after a few minutes of riding all of my fears were gone.”
My husband and I booked a bike tour to Versailles and we had the best time. Our guide Renaud (who is also the owner) was fabulous. I was a bit worried about riding bikes in a busy city. He is a true professional and after a few minutes of riding all of my fears were gone. The bike tour was a highlight of our trip. It rained and he was prepared with a backup plan and rain gear. We got to see parts of Versailles we would have never known existed. His love and knowledge of Paris is amazing.

“With the electric support the tour is not too challenging even for an untrained person or a kid.”
The e-bike tour to Versailles was the best part of our trip to Paris. We were a group of 4 adults and 3 kids (aged between 11 and 55 years). We all enjoyed the tour very much, despite the April weather. The bikes were sturdy and well maintained. With the electric support the tour is not too challenging even for an untrained person or a kid. The tour showed us Paris and its surroundings from a different perspective. We even took a detour along the Seine in the end that took us by the Eiffel Tower.
I‘d definitely recommend the tour. The kids loved it!1

“It felt like an adventure, but a one-day, very do-able adventure.”
I loved this trip! We took the whole family (kids ages 8, 10 and 12), my wife and even my mother-in-law. Everyone had a blast. It was the kids' favorite part of our time in France. It's a great way to experience authentic France with kids and not have to stand in line at museums or have to explain why the kids should be appreciating what they are seeing. The kids felt free to be kids and they got some culture without even realizing it. It felt like an adventure, but a one-day, very do-able adventure. Thanks!

Our most beautiful experience in Paris. We loved the paths in the forest, the typical villages, and especially the market. It was cold, our guide Renaud advised us a very good restaurant instead of the picnic. The Palace of Versailles is incredible. The gardens are my favorite part. Thank you Renaud!!!

“He helped us feel 100% confident navigating city areas as we made our way to the palace of Versailles.”
We had the best day of our entire trip on our private bike tour with Renaud. He’s fun and personable, and because he’s so knowledgeable of the routes and of cycling in general, he helped us feel 100% confident navigating city areas as we made our way to the palace of Versailles, as we are not frequent bikers. He took us to a castle on the way and lovely market in the town of Versailles where we gathered picnic supplies. He recommended his favorite shops and oh my goodness - the best bakery and fruit ever. Then we sat by the water near the palace for a beautiful picnic. We absolutely loved our days in Paris itself, but this trip had us off the beaten path, traveling through forests, seeing the beautiful views of Paris in the distance - it really was a perfect complement to the rest of our trip. And electric bikes are also amazing - they make the hills effortless. On the way home we also appreciated the assistance as we were a bit tired. We are two parents and an 18 year old and all of us agreed this was our favorite part of our vacation. Can’t recommend Renaud enough!!

“It was actually our favorite activity from our time in Paris.”
We had a wonderful time on our e-bike tour to Versailles with Renaud as our guide. It was actually our favorite activity from our time in Paris- and all of us were repeat visitors to the city, with most of us having visited Versailles before as well!
Renaud was awesome with the flexibility to meet the needs of our group. Originally booked for 5, we were able to add two more to the group the week of when we had friends that wanted to join in (was just the additional cost for one more bike as the booking covered up to 6 people), and let us adjust the timing of the tour to depart early. Not only did he have awesome e-bikes for us all, but provided bike bags to help carry our backpacks and cameras, picnic blankets for our lunch and rain capes in case of inclement weather.
Our group was 50-50 split on who had used an e-bike before, and he made sure to start off with a tutorial so everyone was comfortable with the settings on their bike. Even my mother who is VERY nervous about trying anything new, felt comfortable on her bike after a few kilometers.
The bike to Versailles starts through the suburbs of Paris and quickly turns into a beautiful scenic forest. After about 2.5 hours biking with a few stops, we arrived at Versailles and took about an hour to stroll through the Gardens. Normally free, but as our tour was on a Sat we had to add on tickets at 10.50 each for the “musical fountain show”. Honestly could have skipped that bit. But a few members of our party had never been and wanted to check it out. We did however opt to skip the hall of mirrors and indoor tour as it was a Sat and VERY crowded.
After we visited a local market to pick up sandwiches, cheeses and other goodies for a picnic, which we had just outside the Versailles gardens in a beautiful public park along the canal. That was honestly the most delightful part of the tour, as was getting to know Renaud and hear his stories about the history of the area.
On the return journey we took a different path back and stopped at a lovely overlook of the city. Truly the only downside was we were hit with a bit of rain in the afternoon, but with the rain capes and easy assist from the e-bikes, it wasn’t much of an issue. i loved that everyone got to play around with their own settings as we biked- so you could chose your own adventure and get a real workout, or take it easy later in the day on the way home.
Would absolutely recommend this tour as the best way to visit Versailles and see some of the hidden gems and beautiful towns/nature outside of the city. And of course, having such a lovely guide was a huge plus!

“This was hands down the best one of them.”
We spent 5 days in Paris and did most of the things that the city has to offer but this was hands down the best one of them. Bikes were clean and ready to ride, all of the equipment was great. Renaud was on time, very knowledgable, patient with all of us and extremely pleasant to be around. If I am ever in Paris again, this will be the first thing I book.

“The meeting location was easy to find and the day was absolutely perfect.”
I booked this excursion far in advance and had many questions. My email inquiries were replied to almost immediately and the booking process was made very easy. The meeting location was easy to find and the day was absolutely perfect. The e-bikes are so much fun, and Renaud was so attentive in stopping to point out landmarks and provide interesting history along the way. The market visit and then picnic in Versailles was just lovely. This was definitely a highlight of our trip!

“Renaud led us on a great route from central Paris to Versailles travelling on city pathways and forests.”
This was my favourite day in Paris. Renaud led us on a great route from central Paris to Versailles travelling on city pathways and forests. The e-bikes were easy to use and comfortable to ride. The highlight was our picnic at Versailles and biking around the site without the crowds that would be there on another day of the week. I would highly recommend this tour - good value and well organized.
