Overview

Discover the home of Claude Monet, his workshop, and the impressive garden surrounding his home outside of Paris. Your audio-guided tour will depart from Paris, with a travel time of about 1.5 hours on an air-conditioned bus.

Giverny, a quaint village in Normandy, attracted many Impressionist painters in the 19th century; they followed the lead of the movement’s founder, Claude Monet

On arrival, you will have 2 hours to tour the home and grounds, visit in complete freedom with your audioguide the Master’s house where the spectacular colors and enchanting garden were designed like a work of art. Walk through history as you see how Monet lived and was inspired by his surroundings.

You will be dazzled by the flowerbeds and plants, and you will sense the artist’s emotions in front of the famous water lilies and weeping willows in the water garden.

Traveling in July allowed us to see the water lilies. The grounds were stunning. Definitely worth a half a day’s trip.

I really enjoyed visiting the gardens and Monet’s house. It was better than I expected. The grounds were lovely even in October. I would recommend doing the self guided tour.
