  We had a wonderful day exploring Versailles and Monet’s house and garden with Joseph. He was very knowledgable and provided interesting historical perspective to the experience. He went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed the day and had a memorable journey.

• Great info, easy traveling experience

  Very nice excursion. Guide was knowledgeable and filled us in on a lot of history about Monet and Versailles. Our travel time went quickly with all of the information. We also enjoyed stopping at a lovely bistro in Normandy. It was a very easy and enjoyable day.

• Great experience!

  Wonderful trip. Picked up promptly from our hotel by Gustavo. We enjoyed Versailles and learned so much about the history and grounds. Gustavo was able to bring Versailles to life with his knowledge of art history. He pointed out details I certainly would have missed! We were able to see the garden fountains set to music as well as many of the interior rooms. Giverny was lovely. My 15 year old especially enjoyed the lush gardens and the house tour. She was surprised to learn of Monet’s fondness for Asian art. As a bonus, on the way home, we did a couple quick stops at quaint villages as we were passing through. It was a long day, but a great way to see two interesting sites! While it’s something you can plan on your own for much less, it was wonderful to not need to worry about transportation or long lines and to have someone who is so familiar with the history guiding us for the day.

  Did this trip today with Fred. He was very insightful and provided the right level of information. Giverny was breathtaking. The restaurant was very good and a beautiful place. The time in Versailles may be a bit too short if you are looking to explore the garden in depth. Because it was not my first time, I was ok with the time allotted.

• An excellent tour with an amazing guide

  We booked a full day tour with a private vehicle and guide for eight of us to go to Monet’s Gardens & Versailles. We picked one from Tripadvisor and were not disappointed. We were collected exactly on time from our hotel by a smartly dressed guide who spoke excellent English. He introduced himself as Kevin and took us to the minibus that was ours for the day. The day went really well. He was a brilliant guide, knowledgeable and interesting with plenty of character. We had wonderful day and would certainly use these people shay, providing we could have Kevin as guide.

  Excellent!! In Giverny is Monet's house! The gardens of your house: a show! Giverny's museum and his house, all inclusive. After a very rich lunch with Availability (in covers) of free drinks and the tour of Versailles. To do both in one day, I found it excellent! Guide Nicolas! Excellent!!! I recommend!!

  We only had a few days in Paris, so we decided to do both Giverny and Versailles in one day. We are very happy we had the opportunity to teach our kids about Monet and see his home and gardens. Lunch was at a very picturesque restaurant. They had great Quiche! . Then we headed to Versailles. I think we got what we wanted, learned lots about the history of the era. Our guide was lot of fun. My two boys 13 and 11 enjoyed both experiences. Highly recommend it.

  Milan was a wonderful guide, friendly and helpful. Monet's garden was stunningly beautiful, it was exactly like being in one of his paintings.

  Our guide for Versailles was Francesca, her passion and enthusiasm made the palace come alive for us. She was also fantastic at making our pictures look like we were the only ones there although the place was actually teeming with other tourists!

  All 5 of us thoroughly enjoyed the tour!
