Versailles has such great roads that there is no need for high-performance vehicles when looking for the perfect car. Consider tight parking and the possibility of additional road-tripping when hiring; pick an economy car to save on fuel and zip around the area. If you have a bigger group, perhaps consider a sedan, but compact cars are perfect for all your driving needs.

You will notice that Versailles, like much of Europe, observes the speed limit in kilometres. When you are driving in the city centre or near schools, keep it slow at 50 km/h (30 mph). When on larger main roads, the speed limit often shoots up to 80 km/h (50 mph), and on highways, you can push it to a decent 130 km/h (80 mph).

There are many public car parks in Versailles, and most of them are close to main attractions such as the palace, giving you park-and-walk options. Look for Place d'Armes Car Park, Avenue de Sceaux Car Park, Saint-Louis Car Park and Europe Car Park amongst many others. Expect to pay on average €0.75 (£0.65) per hour. Street parking is also available in a lot more places than one would expect in such a high-tourist area.
