Tour Highlights
Glide through the enchanting Normandy countryside, where we'll pause for a magnifique picnic and to Monet's gardens – that might just steal the show. C'est la vie, full of beauty.
Then, voilà! Step into Monet's masterpiece come to life. As you pass over le petit pont japonais and float past the dreamy nymphéas (water lilies) and romantic weeping willows, you'll feel like you've wandered straight into one of his iconic paintings.
For the pièce de résistance, venture into chez Monet himself – his charming maison bursts with vibrant colors in every room, revealing the brilliant mind of this artistic genius. Quelle merveille!
Wander through Giverny's charming streets and blooming gardens, where every corner reveals another postcard-perfect scene of French village life.
Step into a living masterpiece as you explore Monet's legendary gardens, where the vibrant Clos Normand bursts with color-coordinated flowerbeds and the dreamy water lily pond reflects weeping willows and that iconic green Japanese bridge.
Full of colour, full of splendour – you'll be more than impressed by the artist's intimate world as you explore Monet's sunshine-yellow home, where vibrant rooms burst with Japanese prints and period furnishings.
Hear from our happy travelers
I would recommend this company to anyone. We went to Giverny to see Monet’s Garden. The bike ride was beautiful and our guide was the best guide. We weren’t the easiest group due to some mobility issues but he was so accommodating and helpful. And when we saw the lineup to get into Monet’s house we were so happy that we had skip the line tickets! Very memorable experience.
I wish we could give this more than five stars! We had a seamless meeting, then a wonderful bike ride to Giverny. Clara was fantastic, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Lunch was a selection of cheeses and other goodies. Clara told us all about them. She is the kind of guide who elevated the whole experience. This was a highlight of our trip!
