Orly is the closest airport to Versailles: the palace is under half an hour away on the A86, without going into Paris. Your Zonetransfers driver waits in arrivals and drops you at your hotel or on Place d'Armes, facing the golden gates.
How do you get from Orly Airport to Versailles? By private car it is 24 km, round the south of Paris on the A86 motorway, and takes 25 to 40 minutes depending on traffic. With Zonetransfers the price starts at €69 in a car for up to four people, €92 in a 6-seat minivan and €100 in an 8-seat minivan, with tolls, fuel and VAT included.
Up to 4 people and 4 suitcases
Up to 6 people
Up to 8 people
Per vehicle and journey. For groups over eight, a minibus or coach with driver in Paris; all vehicles in the fleet.
The driver never enters Paris: the A86 is the ring motorway that loops round the inner suburbs, so the drive stays on fast roads almost to the palace.
| Stage | Road |
|---|---|
| Orly 1–2–3 or Orly 4 | Pick-up at the arrivals exit, sign with your name |
| A106 and A86 westbound | Through Antony and Vélizy, avoiding the ring road and central Paris |
| Avenue de Paris | The grand avenue that leads straight to the palace |
| Versailles | Your hotel, the Notre-Dame or Saint-Louis quarter, or Place d'Armes |
Landing in the morning? Go straight to Versailles, see the palace while the bags stay in the car or at your hotel, and continue to Paris in the afternoon. Book a car with driver by the hour so the same vehicle waits, or two transfers: Orly to Versailles and Versailles to Paris. The palace is closed on Mondays.
The driver stops at the door of any of these hotels, all within walking distance of the palace:
