Excursion d'une demi-journée de Paris à Giverny Monet's House & Gardens en minivan
Description
Quand vous êtes à Paris, ne vous contentez pas de regarder les tableaux de Claude Monet dans un musée, allez vous promener dans les paysages qui les ont inspirés. En moins de 1,5 h, vous troquerez les rues de la ville pour Giverny, un village de conte de fées où Claude Monet a vécu et peint pendant plus de 40 ans. Voyagez à bord d’un monospace confortable et climatisé avec un petit groupe et un Guide chauffeur multilingue qui raconte des histoires sur Monet, l’impressionnisme et la région sur le chemin. Avec votre billet inclus, entrez directement dans le domaine de Monet : explorez sa maison aux murs roses, son atelier et ses chambres remplies d’estampes Japonaises, puis déambulez dans le jardin fleuri du Clos Normand, une émeute de couleurs du printemps à l’automne. Traversée vers le légendaire jardin d'eau avec son pont Japonais vert, son bambou et son étang de nénuphars - le paysage exact qui apparaît dans ses toiles les plus célèbres. Cette excursion d’une demi-journée en petit groupe est parfaite pour les amateurs d’art et de jardin, mais aussi pour tous ceux qui veulent une pause paisible et photogénique dans l’un des plus beaux villages de France.

Itinéraire
Retrouvez votre Guide chauffeur dans notre agence du centre de Paris, à quelques pas du Louvre. Installez-vous dans votre minivan climatisé et quittez la ville par l'autoroute de Normandie en direction de la vallée de la Seine.
A votre arrivée, utilisez votre billet pré-réservé pour entrer dans le domaine de Monet. Découvrez la maison rose du peintre restaurée telle qu’elle était à son époque : le salon bleu, le garde-manger et la cuisine, la salle à manger remplie d’estampes Japonaises et sa chambre privée au premier étage. La maison où Claude Monet a vécu plus de 40 ans et a élevé 8 enfants.
À l’extérieur, baladez-vous dans le Clos Normand, une émeute de couleurs avec plus de 100 fleurs différentes – roses, capucines et fleurs de saison d’Europe et d’Asie que Claude Monet a disposées comme une toile vivante.
Traversez la route jusqu’au célèbre jardin d’eau, où vous trouverez le pont vert Japonais, la glycine, le bambou et l’étang aux nénuphars qui a inspiré la série Nymphéas de Monet. Prenez votre temps pour des photos et reconnaître les motifs exacts que vous avez vus dans ses peintures.
Rejoignez votre Guide et détendez-vous sur le chemin du retour vers le centre de Paris, en arrivant avec votre appareil photo rempli d'images qui ressemblent à des peintures impressionnistes.

It was great, we have seen the sunflowers field on the way to the monet’s house and requested to drop off for a while and the tutor was happly doing that for us :)
Great afternoon out with our informative guide, serge.
Giverny was everything I hoped it would be and our tour guide was so very nice and accommodating . I would book through this company again
Giverny, Monet's House and Gardens are all beautiful and worth seeing. I'm posting this review only to inform prospective customers to be careful if the actual trip provider is France Tourisme, based on our experience. We took a van to Giverny and saw the house and gardens, but about half way back to Paris, the driver pulled the van to the side of the road and said their was a problem. It was a highway with a narrow shoulder and tractor-trailers whizzing by shaking the van. The driver said to stay in the van but it was not safe so we got out of the van. We climbed over a concrete barrier to get off of the highway. We were there for about 45 minutes. A tow truck came and towed us to its garage. It turned out that the van had run out of gas! I heard the driver say that his colleague who had the van the previous afternoon was supposed to fill it up. That sounded like the driver didn't check the gas level before we left. France Tourisme later said the fuel gauge wasn't accurate but I don't believe that based on what the driver said. All in all we were an hour and a quarter delayed. We asked for a partial refund. The person at the France Tourisme desk said they would give a 25% refund. Then we got an email from France Tourisme saying they wouldn't give a refund because we got to the house and gardens, but they would offer a free boat cruise on the Seine. We had already been on a boat cruise and were leaving Paris the next day so their offer was worthless to us. All of the passengers felt that some refund was in order. In any event, be careful if France Tourisme is the tour operator and I would suggest you ask the van driver if there is fuel.
Our “driver guide” did absolutely no guiding and was an extremely erratic and dangerous driver, who far exceeded the speed limit and tailgated continuously. Giverny itself is magical and well worth a visit, but not with this tour.
Hello Jill, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed visiting Giverny and that you found Monet’s gardens to be a memorable experience. However, we are very sorry to learn about your concerns regarding the transportation. Safety is our highest priority, and we take comments about driving behavior very seriously. We regret that you felt uncomfortable during the journey, as this is not the level of service we aim to provide to our guests. We would also like to clarify that this excursion is operated with a driver-host rather than a licensed guide, which is why the level of commentary may differ from a fully guided tour. Nevertheless, we understand your disappointment and appreciate you sharing your experience. Your comments will be forwarded to the appropriate team for review. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please feel free to contact us at info@francetourisme.fr We are glad that Giverny itself lived up to your expectations, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a more satisfying experience on a future visit, perhaps on one of our guided excursions to Versailles or the Loire Valley Castles. Kind regards, Alice de France Tourisme
It was a lovely afternoon in Claude Monet's garden. Despite many visitors, it was pleasant to stroll around the garden. The visitors were spread out there. Our guide, Roland from France Tours, safely and entertainingly drove our small group and accompanied us through the garden. A special thank you to him!
Andrés is an outstanding guide. He handled every challenge with tact, patience and professionalism. Of course, Giverny sells itself - do I really need to review that? Amazing place.
Hello, Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your visit to Giverny and that Andrés made such a positive impression throughout the day. His professionalism, patience, and dedication to our guests are qualities we truly value, and we will be sure to share your kind words with him. Giverny is indeed a magical destination, and we are pleased that you had the opportunity to experience its beauty in such great conditions. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure, perhaps to the Loire Valley Châteaux or on a Champagne tasting excursion in Reims, two unforgettable experiences that showcase other remarkable treasures of France. Kind regards, Alice de France Tourisme.
Giverny is beautiful; the gardens are very lovely to contemplate. Our guide Florian was extremely kind at all times and provided us with very good information about the nearby towns and the history of Monet. Highly recommended.

Saludos cordiales, Alice de France Tourisme.
Roland was kind, patient and very informative. He helped us better understand everything we saw on the car ride and in the gardens. Well worth our time.

Monet gardens are beautiful, but there were hundred of people waiting to get int to the house. Others in our group never made it in the house due to the overcrowding. Most important is the fact that despite reperesenations this is not a guided trip. It is merely transportation & ticket to get in. We even confirmed before booking & was told by the operator "This tour include a guide and a driver..." Despite representation there was no guide & the driver did not provide a scintilla of information about Monet. Also, driver emphasized how important it was for us to meet at the departure point & time, then he showed up 15 minutes late. Avoid this experience.
We are sorry to read that your experience did not meet your expectations. The visit to Giverny can indeed involve high visitor numbers, especially during peak season, which may affect waiting times for Monet’s house. Regarding the tour format, this service includes transportation with a driver who may provide limited commentary, and not a fully guided visit on site. We regret any misunderstanding about this point. We also apologize for the delay at departure and will share your comments with our operations team for review. Thank you for your feedback.
