Traveler reviews
Monets gardens
Excellent. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional. He also had s great sense of humor.
Enjoy this trip under a very warm day on 7/16/2026
We enjoyed this trip very much! Although it was very warm, thankfully the car was air-conditioned. Our guide, Honoré, was very polite, friendly, and knowledgeable. He also provided us personal care. Under his guidance, we avoided long queues and bustling crowds, and were not hindered from properly appreciating Monet's Gardens or Versailles Palace. A three-course lunch left us energized and well-rested for the day's itinerary.
Isabelle
Isabelle was amazing! She was warm and friendly and attentive, very knowledgeable, and she knew how to negotiate us through the crowds. We had an ample amount of free time to explore, too.
Amazing day trip
Amazing time with our knowledgeable guide
Giverny & Versailles
Giverny was beautiful! And Versailles magnificent. Oliver, the guide, was not particularly friendly. He said very little during the drive to Giverny. As we approached the location he provided a little historical information along with logistics. At Versailles, Oliver the knowledgeable historian arrived. He was engaging and humorous. Filled with interesting facts and stories about Versailles and the generations of people that lived there. We would have enjoyed learning more about the history of Giverny, Versailles and Paris while in the van. It was evident at Versailles that Oliver is an historian and loves his city. I wish he shared more of his knowledge and stories.
