Your Itinerary

Giverny

(Pass by)

Priority Entrance guaranteed! We work with the Claude Monet Foundation and have the right to bypass the long entrance line and head right inside of the garden via a special entrance. Enjoy at least 30 minutes more time inside the gardens, rather than inline, if you join our small group tour.

The Clos Normand - Fondation Claude Monet

There are two distinct gardens on Claude Monet's property. The lovely Clos Normand has hundreds of types of flowers in bloom throughout the spring, summer, and fall. You'll for sure recognize the bold purple Iris' lined pathways and the spicy, orange and yellow Capucines that climb on the arches just in front of his pink house with green shutters.

Admission Included

Fondation Claude Monet

Waterlillies!!! The Japanese garden on Claude Monet's estate is the most famous as it has a green bridge and a waterlily-filled pond. Your guide will lead you directly to it and help you get the best souvenir photos! You'll see the precise spots where Monet painted from and compare the paintings with what you see in real life.

Admission Included

Fondation Claude Monet

Monet's Colorful Home: Claude Monet lived here for more than 40 years and raised 8 children. Inside you will see his artist workshop as well as the personal decor and colorful paint that he put in every room. Groups are not allowed into the home as space is very limited inside. So, you will be given free time to explore inside on your own.

Admission Included

Eglise Sainte-Radegonde de Giverny

Graveside visit: Visit the final resting place of Claude Monet and pay your respects to the great man himself. His tomb is hidden away in a little countryside church's graveyard. Your guide will take you to it and share many of Monet's life stories that went beyond his art but still affected it.

Nicolas Leroy was our Blue Fox tour guide and he is A++. He was kind , amiable and knowledgeable about all things Monet. After acquainting us along the way about Monet's life, and showed us pictures of some of his famous paintings, we were given enough time to explore the gardens and the house and take lots of pictures and buy souvenirs. Small group tours are the best cos there were a lot of tourists! We also saw the church and Monet's family gravesite. It was a wonderful afternoon.

Phillip was an engaging guide and careful driver. The timing was very good since we came after the big tourist busses had left. There were people there, but it was not crowded.

Great time, good info, good company, energetic and funny guide! Made good time and he was interested in making sure we had enough time to explore on our own and see all we wanted to see in the gardens, Monet’s home, etc!!

Jennifer_T

Sam was a great guide, very friendly and accommodating. Gave us just enough info and then let us explore on our own. Beautiful place!

Debbie_N

Enjoyed the trip. It would’ve been nice if when all the guides from the same company got there at the same time one went one way one went another and one went somewhere else. Instead they all went the same way and it was a big clogged up mess at each place that they took us. it also would’ve been nice if we would’ve had some device to listen to our guide because it was not that easy to hear her with all the other people around. Our guide Valaria did the best she could under the circumstances.

Lori_W

It was a great time! Our guide Valeria was fun, informative and an excellent driver. I learned a lot about Monet. Gardens were busy but not as crowded as I feared. Gardens are beautiful!

Wendy_S

A wonderful 1/2 day trip on a beautiful spring day. The drive was comfortable and Sara did a great job giving us many details about both Giverney and areas on the way out from Paris. She pointed out a great little bistro right outside the exit where had delicious coffees, cocoa, and pastries before the trip back to Paris.

Our tour guide Phillip was kind and wonderful. We were picked up at a cafe just off the Arch and had an easy hour drive to Giverny. Gardens, house, grave and church. Good tour, good guiding and easy ride back home. Only half a day and we still had a lot of the day left to explore Paris. Highly recommend!!

Jo_R

Well planned, our guide was great! Nice to have time on our own! Guide very personable and made sure we didn’t miss anything!

We had a magical visit to Monet’s House and Gardens. Our tour guide Stephan was very knowledgeable and shared so much interesting information. It was well worth the short trip from Paris. You won’t regret doing this tour.
