From Paris: Giverny Monet's House & Gardens Half-Day Bus Tour - Audio/English Guide Option

Take a bus from Paris
to Monet's village of Giverny

Depart from a meeting point near the Eiffel Tower and travel by air-conditioned bus to Giverny, about 70 km west of Paris. There is no public transport to Giverny, so the bus makes the trip easy. The route follows the Normandy motorway to Bonnières, crosses the Seine at Vernon and passes the plateaus of the Eure; each way takes about 1 hour 30 minutes.

Visit Claude Monet's house

This is the house where Claude Monet, founder of Impressionism, lived for 43 years. In 1966 Monet's son donated it to the Académie des Beaux-Arts, and after major restoration it opened as a museum in 1980. Entry is included, so you can go in without queuing at the ticket office.

Stroll around the water lily pond and colorful gardens

Walk through the flower beds and gardens Monet designed like works of art, and stand before the famous water lilies and weeping willows of the pond. In the 19th century, many Impressionist painters followed Monet to this small village.

Visit the way you like

Depending on your option, you can be guided by an English-speaking guide, explore with an audio guide, or visit freely with transport and entry only. After the visit, the bus takes you back to the starting point.
