After introductions and a quick overview of the itinerary, relax and enjoy the scenic drive to Giverny, approximately 1.5 to 2 hours away.
Explore the Village of Giverny and Claude Monet's Gardens Arrive in the charming village of Giverny, famously home to Claude Monet. Your guide will escort you to the entrance, where you’ll begin an enchanting tour of Monet’s house and gardens.
Claude Monet's House Step inside the artist’s carefully preserved home, where you’ll explore the reading room, the artist’s first studio, and private apartments. Highlights include Monet’s bedroom, his wife Alice’s bedroom, and Blanche Monet’s room, featuring period objects, artwork by Monet’s friends such as Cezanne and Renoir, and Monet's renowned collection of Japanese prints.
The Clos Normand Garden In front of the house lies the vibrant Clos Normand, a masterpiece garden designed by Monet himself. Admire the meticulously arranged flower beds filled with daffodils, tulips, peonies, and roses. The central path, lined with nasturtiums and fragrant blooms, offers a kaleidoscope of colors that inspired many of Monet’s iconic works.
The Water Garden Stroll through the serene Water Garden, created by Monet by diverting a small river. Be captivated by the tranquil lily ponds, the iconic Japanese bridge, and oriental plants such as maples, bamboo, and white lilies. This idyllic setting inspired Monet's famous "Nymphéas" (Water Lilies) series.
