Fra Paris: Monet Gardens & Giverny cykeltur med picnic stop
Beskrivelse
For at begynde din Giverny og Monet's Garden Bike Tour rejser du fra Paris til den maleriske by Vernon, der ligger i Normandiet. På vejen kommer du forbi smukke hvede- og solsikkemarker, langt fra Paris' stress og jag. Vi vil gøre vores første stop ved friluftsmarkedet i Vernon. Her kan du nyde en række lokale specialiteter, såsom cider, og organisere din picnickurv til den perfekte frokost ved floden. Vi henter derefter vores cykler og nyder et ubesværet krydstogt fra Giverny til Monets berømte ejendom. Vi stopper langs Seinen for en picnicfrokost ved siden af en malerisk mølle, alt imens vi nyder en betagende udsigt over det franske landskab. Du vil have masser af tid til at udforske Monets haver og hjem i Giverny, og så vil vi nyde en afslappet tur tilbage til Vernon, inden vi vender tilbage til Paris. Rundturstransport til og fra det centrale Paris gør denne dagstur til disse specielle haver til en leg!

En gang i Vernon kan du besøge det charmerende landmændsmarked for at købe picnicforsyninger. Derefter hopper du på din cykel og pedal over floden til en smuk park langs bredden af Seinen til frokost. Ved frokosten kan du også prøve den lokale favoritdrink: cidre.
Det bliver derefter tid til din afslappende tur på 5 kilometer ned ad cykelstien til landsbyen Giverny og de verdensberømte haver i Claude Monet. Krydstogt forbi Giverny-kirken og dens kirkegård med graver af lokale borgere, der dateres tilbage til det 17. århundrede, britiske soldater fra 2. verdenskrig og endda Monet selv begravet i sin families hvælving. Du kommer forbi Hotel Baudy, hvor Impressionists Manet og Renoir plejede at male. Snart kommer du til dagens højdepunkt - Monet's Garden Brug cirka 1,5 time på at nyde Monets haver, hans hus og den berømte vandliljedam, hvor nogle af hans mest berømte værker stammer fra. Sørg for at medbringe dit kamera og masser af film! Derudover tilbyder landsbyen Giverny dig det amerikanske kunstmuseum (på tværs af gaden fra Monet's Gardens), adskillige caféer og små gader, der beder om at blive udforsket.

This was an incredible way to visit Vernon, Giverny and Claude Monet’s home. The transportation was comfortable, the historical information and context set the stage perfectly, the bike ride was leisurely and beautiful, and the group entry to the museum meant we were able to bypass the long line at the regular entrance. We were given plenty of time to explore and wander on our own, which I really appreciated. We were able to patronize independent vendors at the local market in Vernon and the guides pointed out so many interesting things in the region - historical churches and building, remnants and evidence of WWII battles, local geography and culture. I absolutely loved the tour, and our guides were perfect!
Tobias and Oljean were great guides. The bike trip was at a good pace for most. Be prepared to use Euro in the marketplace where you buy lunch for your picnic. Monet Gardens were beautiful and crowded. This trip got us in a priority entrance bypassing the line. The home was beautiful and filled with art and household objects. The giftshop has A/C which was needed during the heatwave. Ended the visit with ice cream and the ride back was relatively easy. They provided helmets and vests fir those who wanted them. The bikes (3-speed with basket) were in good mechanical order and fairly comfortable. The bus back to Paris was a relaxing end.
The guides were knowledgeable and very friendly. They made the trip great even though it was really hot. I would definitely recommend fat tire tours!
Rory and Toby were excellent guides. Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day. Safe, easy route… the market was lovely and we were happy up to find vegan Lebanese food there for our picnic. The gardens were divine. 10/10 worth every penny and I would do a trip like this again,
Thank you for the glowing review! Rory and Toby make a great team and we're so glad they helped make the day so special. Giverny really is magical and it sounds like everything came together perfectly — beautiful weather, a lovely market find, and those stunning gardens. We'll pass along your kind words to both of them. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
Rides in paris suck. If I miss my appointed time at the Louvre I will be pissed.
This is a great experience but be sure you can ride a bike! A few people struggled and our group was large so it was difficult to manage. The ride is gentle and gorgeous across the river Seine. We got to Vernon and got to choose our picnic items in town and at the farmer’s market. We saw and did so much. This is such an excellent way to see the countryside. We had plenty of time at the gardens. Our guides were hilarious, had great stories, and were patient.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We are so glad you enjoyed the gorgeous ride along the Seine, the local farmer's market, and the gardens. It truly is a wonderful way to see the French countryside. We also appreciate your note about group dynamics and bike riding experience; we are always looking for ways to improve the flow of our tours. Thank you for your patience and for choosing us for your day trip from Paris!
Wow! What a lovely experience! I had visiting Monet's Gardens on my bucket list and since my sister and I were going on a trip to Paris - we had to make sure we included this excursion! It was soooo worth it! Tobias and OJ were the guides for our bike tour. They were excellent! Took care of all f our needs! You meet at the bike shop, then take a bus where Tobias and OJ give you some interesting history on Monet. A quick visit in Vernon at the market and local stores to get your food and drinks for the picnic. We had rain and hail on our bike ride - but it didn't matter. We enjoyed so much. I have already told family and friends about this and would go back again anytime I'm in Paris.
What an incredible review! We are so glad that we could help you tick Monet's Gardens off your bucket list. Tobias and OJ will be thrilled to hear your kind words—they always do an amazing job keeping everyone taken care of, even when unexpected rain and hail join the tour! It is wonderful to hear that the weather didn't dampen your spirits and that you enjoyed the bus ride, the Vernon market, and the beautiful bike ride. Thank you so much for recommending us to your family and friends, and we would love to welcome you back anytime you are in Paris!

This is a great way to take a short break from the city and see a quaint French village. There was a lot of wonderful history and OJ and Dave did a great job guiding us.
