From Paris: Giverny Monet's Gardens & Vernon Small-Group Tour (Max 6, Hotel Pickup)

Depart from your Paris accommodation
to Monet's house and gardens

After pickup from your accommodation in Paris, travel about 75 minutes by car or minivan to Giverny. With priority entry to Monet's house and gardens, explore the legendary water lily pond, the Japanese bridge and the flower garden laid out exactly as Monet designed it. Inside the house, you can also see the painter's studio, dining room, kitchen and collection of Japanese prints.

Visit Giverny village and Monet's resting place

Stroll leisurely through Giverny village with its narrow lanes, stone houses and small ateliers. Visit Sainte-Radegonde Church, which Monet attended and where he is buried with his family, as well as Monet's grave. Your guide shares stories of Monet's life, struggles, passion and artistic achievements. You spend about 3 hours in Giverny.

Explore the old mill and Donjon Tower in Vernon

Move to Vernon, a town on the Seine a few minutes from Giverny, for a riverside walk of about 30 minutes. See the old water mill, one of Monet's most iconic scenes painted outside Giverny, and the medieval Donjon Tower built by Philip II after he took Normandy in the early 13th century. After the tour, return to Paris and get dropped off near your accommodation.
