It was a quiet day in Paris due to a public holiday and the journey to Giverny with Matthew was easy. The booking process, meeting up and travel arrangements were done well.

Journey to the heartland of Impressionism

Start your adventure in Paris, where you'll board a luxurious, air-conditioned coach for a scenic drive to Giverny. Savor the picturesque Normandy countryside, before diving into the world of Monet.

Once you have arrived at the Fondation Claude Monet, you'll have two hours to explore Monet’s former estate at your own leisure. Soak up the world of the famous impressionist painter as you roam through his pink-plastered house, where he lived and worked. Explore the reading room, larder, and the artist’s studio, as well as the bright yellow dining room, which has been reconstructed down to the very last detail with earthenware dishes and a blue-tiled kitchen.

Make sure to take enough time to stroll through the lush gardens that inspired some of Monet's most famous works. Marvel at the diverse plant species, from Japanese anemones to climbing nasturtiums, and pause by the iconic Japanese bridge over the lily pond. You can explore at your own pace, use an audio guide, or opt for an expert English-speaking guide to deepen your understanding of Monet’s genius.

Conclude your visit with a reflective moment at Monet’s grave in the quaint churchyard before a relaxing return journey to Paris, enriched with a newfound appreciation for Monet’s art and legacy.
