Versailles Palace and Giverny Monet House Visit with Lunch

3.Versailles Palace and Giverny Monet House Visit with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,948 reviews · 9 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $242

Spend about nine and a half hours outside Paris, visiting Monet’s house and water lily garden at Giverny, stopping for a three-course lunch at the Moulin de Fourges, then seeing Versailles’ royal apartments and gardens. The tour travels by air-conditioned coach and offers guided and app-audio options. The gardens can be crowded, and the day involves plenty of walking.

“This was the best day! Starting with the gardens and learning some of the history on the bus trip, and then finishing with a tour of the Palace. Both very different, both exquisite. Lunch was fabulous, I am glad we included it. Our guide was spot on. The rain didn't dampen the day in the slightest!”

Once there, we were given some time to explore Monet's home and gardens, and the quaint village of Giverny, before heading back to Paris. Wish we could have had one or two more hours to explore.”

6.Giverny and Versailles Palace Guided Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,324 reviews · 11h 30m · from $163

Travel by air-conditioned coach from Porte Maillot to Monet’s house and gardens at Giverny, then Versailles. A guide introduces both sites, with self-guided time at Giverny and a guided palace visit. Past guides have included Hendrix, Lawrence and Anais. Allow 11.5 hours, and bring water, sun protection and comfortable shoes.

“Entertaining trip out to Giverny with some history and storytelling by Hendricks, who was great! It felt personal as he gave his spiel to smaller groups on the bus which made asking questions and hearing what he had to say really nice. It also allowed for resting without missing any of the history. The tour of Versailles was well done despite the crowds and you had plenty of free time to see the gardens in the afternoon. The free time in Giverny and Versailles felt decent but if anything we would have liked a bit more time in Giverny as that was when you had time to eat lunch before…”

“This was a great experience. Our guide was wonderful and so very knowledgeable. We really appreciated her attention to detail and being so approachable. Monet's garden was so beautiful in the autumn light. It made for a perfect afternoon with so many plants and flowers with radiant colors and of course Monet's famous Japanese bridge and waterlilies. A must see for lovers of Impressionist art.”

10.Giverny Monet’s Home & Versailles Palace Day Trip from Paris

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 746 reviews · 11 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $167

Leave Paris at 8:30 am for an 11.5-hour coach trip combining Versailles and Monet’s home in Giverny. An English-speaking guide leads the palace visit; at Monet’s estate, you explore with a self-guided app. Expect grand rooms, vast gardens, plenty of walking, and a full day away from the city.

“Really awesome experience. As per other reviews please be aware of timings and locations of pick ups. Confirm with your guide. The Giverny portion isnt so much a tour more just entry to the house and gardens. RUN to the house to line up when youre allowed in, the line gets so long and you dont want to miss out. The Palace was beautiful and our 2nd guide was super knowledgeable about the Palace. You dont have a lot of time in the gardens so if wandering and looking is what you want, probably dont go on this or any tour.”

15.Day Trip to Giverny & Versailles with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 429 reviews · 9 hours · from $234

Travel by air-conditioned coach from Paris to Monet’s home and gardens in Giverny, then enjoy a traditional lunch before visiting Versailles. Choose a guide or an audio option, with audio available in nine languages. The day combines flowerbeds and Monet’s water garden with the Hall of Mirrors and royal apartments, though Versailles deserves more time than this packed itinerary allows.

“We paid for the audio tour, but upon arriving, we were not included in the audio tour. I do not know whose mistake it is, but we did not receive what we paid for. The guide and the driver were great and my name was wonderful. Versailles was OK as a beautiful building but not much else. I would like a credit for not receiving the audio. I wondered at the time why but I didn’t realize until later when I saw our original engagement information that it did include the audio for $409.00”
