The context...
- Mirabeau has a mission for you.
he said "it's not a question of leading the revolution that's already been made, but of holding it back", so he's asking you to do just that: get together 57 million pounds in order to save France bankruptcy - For this a code exists and is hidden in Versailles. Thanks to it, an American sovereign wealth fund can be set up to save France. But the Americans don't want you to find this code...
- Yet this fund exists. It had been negotiated in secret during the American War of Independence, which made us friends of the New World but ruined France, leading to the Revolution.
The route of the treasure hunt...
- Take a tour of the historic Versailles district, where the 5 months that changed the history of France took place.

Very easy to book. Contact with the guide was quick and very friendly. Nice walk in Versailles on the "great" places of the revolution. Some very interesting explanations provided by the guide about this period. A little more anecdotes about each of the places we pass through. I'd recommend

Really worth it. Time flies when the unfolding of events is told in such exquisite detail and reinforced by the actual places where they took place. 5 stars for us!

Baptiste and his partner are excellent, patient, very professional and captivating. Thanks to both of them. Too bad the price is so high.....for 5 people, that's a hefty budget. Too expensive, unfortunately.
- Very nice experience!

An escape game to discover that the revolution also began in Versailles, with many traces still visible today! Our guide, Baptiste, was very friendly and made sure we had a great time! To be repeated!
