Private Giverny Trip with Entrance Ticket from Paris

Step inside the living canvas of Claude Monet, where gardens and water lilies shaped a legend.


This private Giverny day trip from Paris brings you directly to the Norman village where Claude Monet spent more than four decades painting, gardening, and transforming his surroundings into art. A dedicated driver collects you from your hotel and delivers you to one of France's most beloved historic properties.

The estate at Giverny divides naturally into two distinct atmospheres. The flower garden bursts with layered colour through much of the year, while the water garden, designed in the Japanese tradition, offers a quieter, more contemplative mood around the famous lily pond and curved green bridge.

The house itself reflects Monet's sensibility at every turn. Each room was arranged to draw in natural light, and the studio spaces reveal how closely the artist wove his domestic life together with his creative practice. Visiting the interior adds a personal dimension that reproductions of his paintings cannot provide.

Travel is handled entirely in a private, comfortable vehicle, meaning you set the rhythm of the day without the constraints of a group schedule. The entrance ticket is included, so logistics are straightforward from the moment you step into the car.

Tour Highlights

Private hotel pickup and drop-off across Paris for a seamless, door-to-door experience.

Entrance ticket to Monet's house and gardens included, with no need to queue at the box office.

Explore the famous flower garden, a riot of carefully arranged colour that inspired many of Monet's works.

Walk beside the water garden and the iconic lily pond, the source of Monet's celebrated late series of paintings.

Visit the interior of Monet's residence, where rooms and studios reflect the artist's personal aesthetic and daily routines.

Travel in a private, comfortable vehicle, giving you flexibility and a relaxed pace throughout the day.

Discover the Norman village of Giverny, a charming destination beyond the estate itself.
