3.Giverny and Monet’s House Half Day Trip from Paris Guide or Audio

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,319 reviews · 5 hours 15 minutes (approx.) · from $102

Travel by coach from central Paris to Giverny, where you’ll see Monet’s house, Japanese bridge, water-lily pond, orchards, and flower gardens. Choose a multilingual audio guide or an art historian guide. The half-day format saves time, but busy days can feel rushed.

“We had a wonderful time on the Giverny tour. Our guide, Alex, was brilliant. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled at keeping the group together and on task. We arrived at the gardens just after a rain shower, and the sun broke through, which made the flowers and water lilies even more beautiful for photos. We didn’t take the time to see the village or Monet’s house this time, but that gives us a reason to return. I’d happily recommend this tour to anyone interested in Monet and his gardens. The only thing I wouldn’t recommend is the restaurant where the group met. Best to choose your own spot before…”
