Enjoyable Monet and Versailles

5.00Michael was informative and able to answer any questions. His knowledge of the Painter, Monet and Versailles are unmatched. He was an excellent leader, modifying our visit to Versailles when inclement weather came upon us in such a way that we were still able to see much of the gardens despite the rain.
The Best of Giverny and Versailles 5-STAR!

5.00Valeria was our outstanding guide that got us to Giverny in the morning to stand on the Japanese footbridge and enter Monet's house before the crowds! She was excellent at time keeping and made the whole tour group a lunch reservation for us to enjoy and energize before we continued to Versailles with precise timing to see the fountain show! Knowledgeable and fun ~ we had the best guide for this trip ~ THANK YOU for making my birthday at Giverny/Versailles so special! I spent so much time researching this tour and it paid off well!
Amazing time at Versailles!

5.00Visiting Versailles is an amazing experience in itself but having a guide like Michael that is so knowledgeably about its history and truly has an interest in the satisfaction of the participants is a huge plus. It was an absolute awesome experience.
Versailles, magnificent but overcrowded.

4.00The crowd inside the palace of Versailles became overwhelming. Basically we were shuffled through learning little of the rooms themselves.
A memorable day trip to Versailles

5.00We had a wonderful day with Teo, he had lots of tips for avoiding the crowds and optimizing our experience. Giverny and Monet's garden were spectacular and the highlight of the day. Lunch in Versailles at La Place Creperie was wonderful. Unfortunately it is hard to avoid crowds within Versailles but the shuffling through is worth it to see the many opulent rooms and once you get to the gardens the crowds dissipate and you can wander in peace. It’s such a large place I’m grateful we had Teo to make sure we saw all the magic.
Fantastic tour

4.00Our tour guide, Theo was fantastic! It was a group of eight people and he really helped us learn what we could about Monet and Versailles. He was very personable and assisted our mother who is very mobile but a little slower than the rest. He made a reservation at a restaurant that was not a touristy place but a sit down place in Versailles, which was very nice. Our only tip would be to possibly shave 30 minutes off of Versailles and add 30 minutes to Monet because we took our time in the gardens then felt like we were rushing through the house and didn’t have time to look in the shops. It would also be nice to add an option to walk around the town of Giverney. Overall a wonderful tour!

5.00What an amazing day visiting Monet’s home and garden as well as Versailles. Our guide Clementine was knowledgeable, sweet and funny, she helped to make the day even more enjoyable. The Monet portion was the highlight for me, although Versailles was very large and impressive. We also stopped for a Crepe lunch (per Clementine's suggestion) , which was delicious.
Great Day!
