5.00Our driver and guide was Lucile and she was simply exceptional. A very safe and comfortable ride for our group of 6 in July of 2025. Lucile was extremely charismatic and incredibly knowledgable. She truly loves sharing French History and is shows. The entire trip was filled with knowledge about Monet and Versailles, but Lucile made the trip worthwhile with a lot of local knowledge as well. This made the trip to and from quite enjoyable. Her love and respect for the sites and gardens shined through out the tour. She even was well aware of the typical day at the site and adjusted our itinerary easily so as the avoid the dense crowds whenever able, but did not skip anything. She was also very adept at making sure to provide some superb photo opportunities at both sites. This company was great to work with, and the guide they provided us with was highly knowledgeable, wonderfully attentive, and exceptionally professional. We would make every attempt to book this tour again, and would seek to book other tours with this company with absolute certainty. Having booked online tours throughout the world, this experience was an unforgettable memory that became a highlight of our trip.

5.00Our driver, Fabric did a fantastic job of giving us lots of history & French facts as we drove through the city to Giverny for Monets home & gardens and then onto Versailles. He managed the time very efficiently especially with all the crowds of tourists. Loved the lunch place he took us to in Versailles and even drove by a few of the Paris highlights. A favorite day for all of us and highly recommend this tour.

5.00We had a wonderful experience with Andre! He was very knowledgeable and made sure we got to the front of the crowds to see everything at Versailles. You could spend a full day here and not see everything. It was amazing. Andre connected with the kids and was light hearted. He continued with our history lesson on the way to Monet’s home and gardens. It was amazing to be out of the city and see the small town of Giverny. Lunch was great and Monet’s gardens were spectacular. Andre even gave us time on our own to explore more at the end of the tour. I would recommend this day tour! What a fantastic day!
