Private Full-Day Tour from Paris

Giverny, Versailles and the Eiffel Tower in One Day

A single private journey through three of France's most iconic landmarks, with door-to-door service included.


This private full-day Paris tour brings together the Palace of Versailles, Monet's gardens at Giverny, and the second floor of the Eiffel Tower into one thoughtfully structured 10-hour experience. A dedicated driver handles all logistics while an audio guide keeps you informed at each stop. Private pick-up and drop-off at your hotel are included from start to finish.

Few itineraries manage to cover this range of experiences without feeling rushed. Because the tour is entirely private, the pace adjusts to your group, and there is no waiting for other visitors or coordinating with strangers. The driver serves as your guide throughout the day, sharing context on each destination as you travel between them.

Versailles and Giverny sit outside central Paris, making them difficult to reach efficiently without private transport. This tour removes that barrier entirely, combining both estates with a visit to one of the world's most recognized monuments. The result is a day that would otherwise require days of planning to replicate independently.

The itinerary suits travelers who want to make the most of limited time in the Paris region. Whether you have just arrived or are nearing the end of your trip, the tour covers the essential cultural and historical highlights of the area in a single, well-paced day.

Tour Highlights

Walk through the Palace of Versailles, the principal royal residence of French kings from Louis XIV to Louis XVI, with a full interior visit included.

Explore the house and legendary gardens of Claude Monet in the village of Giverny, where the artist lived and painted until his death.

Ascend to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, built by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Exposition Universelle and now the most visited paid monument in the world.

Travel in a private vehicle throughout the day, with pick-up and drop-off directly at your hotel, eliminating the need for public transport or shared shuttles.

An audio guide accompanies the visit to Giverny, providing historical and artistic context as you move through Monet's house and grounds.

Cover three distinct regions of the Paris area in a single outing, from the formal grandeur of Versailles to the rural setting of the Normandy border.

Benefit from an entirely private experience with no shared group, allowing the itinerary to adapt to your schedule and interests.

Itinerary

1
Private Pick-Up from Your Hotel

Your driver collects you directly from your hotel in Paris. Travel time to the first destination varies depending on traffic conditions, with approximately one hour allocated for pick-up and transit at each end of the day.

2
Palace of Versailles

The tour begins at the Palace of Versailles, the grand royal residence that served French kings from Louis XIV through Louis XVI. Built and embellished over multiple generations, the palace and its grounds provided a model for royal architecture across Europe for over a century.

3
Giverny and Monet's House and Gardens

The journey continues to the small village of Giverny, roughly three hours from Paris. Here you visit the house and gardens of Impressionist painter Claude Monet, using an audio guide that covers his life, his technique, and why he chose this particular landscape as his subject for decades. The gardens are open from early spring through early November and are known for their seasonal color.

4
Eiffel Tower Second Floor

Back in Paris, the tour includes a visit to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. Constructed in just over two years for the 1889 World Exposition, the tower was designed by Gustave Eiffel as a demonstration of French engineering. It now receives close to seven million visitors each year, making it the most visited paid monument in the world.
