Like visiting a painting - Very busy, but even so a lovely relaxing visit to Monet's beautiful (and very well-maintained) gardens. The house was interesting too.

Perfect day trip to Giverny from Paris - Kadir was a great guide. He was knowledgeable and gave a presentation on the bus to Giverny, and then made sure we all knew how to get back to the parking lot after the tour. We were able to skip the lines and use the group tour entrance, which saved a lot of time. This was a self guided tour, which was perfect because it was so crowded and we were able to make our own schedule to see all of the different spots - the gardens, the water lily pond, the house, the village, and Monet’s resting place. I even had enough time at the end to get a coffee and cake before going back to the bus. This was a five and a half hour tour, including the round trip bus drive. I would highly recommend this group tour for anyone that would like to quickly and safely get to Giverny and then back to Paris. *Make sure you make note of the meeting point, it seems some think it’s the large Notre Dame church, but this is the smaller church near the Port Maillot metro station.

Monet's house tour - Very well managed and our guide even provided slide show and info to follow along on ride there. Was beautiful area and enjoyed the gift shops! Our bus was comfortable and cool. I did the afternoon tour which had less people and we vould spread out on bus. The flowers are amazing and the house shown as if Monet still llived there! I also stopped in at the Modern museum up street and saw exhibit. Spent some time having ice cream and a lovely cocktail named after Monets wife whixh was delicious. We had a short time to wander town and enjoy the church where he is buried and a few galleries all on our own time. Tour guide gave great directions and instructions to get around and then back to the bus.

Amazing Monet’s Garden - We spent 2 hrs in the garden, taking pictures in almost every turn. It’s crowded but with patient, one can find the spot for pictures. 2 hrs is about right, not too rushed. The only warning is getting lunch could take time. We waited for 15 minutes at the restaurant outside the Garden, just enough time to get a sandwich. All and all, good trip. Highly recommended

Monets' Tour - Informative, on-time, comfortable and pleasant, trip to Monet Gardens. Tour guide knowledgeable, showed a passion for the subject and friendly. Perhaps the use of deodorant would been an added bonus. Would not hesitate using this tour guide in the future. Very smooth experience.
