Our guide for the Giverny tour did a wonderful job of explaining to us life and about Monet. The guide for Versailles palace was excellent in detailing nuances relating to royal chambers and halls and important paintings. The experience was worth the money.

Loved Georgia on Monet tour, awesome! Was not thrilled with the Versailles tour. Too many people, tour guide hard to hear and understand. I also thought we would see gardens and fountains😞

Mimi gave great information to us on the way to Giverny and Versailles, the ride was quick and smooth. You have a lot of free time at Claude Monet's house and a guided tour through the palace with free time to explore the gardens. Christina was our guide for the palace and incredible. Highly recommend!

Both of the attractions were wonderful and the lunch venue was particularly and surprisingly excellent. The earphone communication devices were poor and we discarded them. Our guide's English was not good so we learned little on the tour but certainly enjoyed what we saw.

Your experience

Step aboard an air-conditioned bus and depart from the center of Paris towards Claude Monet’s former estate. Explore Claude Monet's pink-plastered house, where he lived and worked. Imagine what Monet’s day-to-day life was like as you stroll through the fully restored ivy-clad house. Make your way to the lush green gardens, one of Monet’s greatest inspirations for his world-famous artworks.

After exploring Monet’s tranquil estate, enjoy a lunch break. Savor lunch at “Moulin de Fourges,” a 2000-year-old mill and traditional French restaurant just 10 minutes outside of Giverny, where you can indulge in a delicious three-course meal (optional). You can also choose to embark on this tour with a small group of up to 15 guests.

At Versailles, your skip-the-line tickets will allow you to bypass the long entry line, saving you up to 3 hours of standing in line. Once you have gained entry, enjoy a guided tour of the royal estate. Explore the King’s and Queen’s State Apartments, the Royal Chapel, and the Hall of Mirrors as you learn more about the French monarchy, including the private lives of the infamous King Louis XIV and Marie Antoinette. Head outdoors to admire the estate’s impressive architecture and explore the beautiful French gardens, decorated with the famous Versailles fountains. At the end of the tour, you can choose to linger at the estate or hop back on the coach to go back to Paris.
