Description

Dive into Claude Monet's imagination in the picturesque village of Giverny, where the artist's stunning gardens and the Museum of Impressionism is located. On this full-day trip from Paris on board an air-conditioned coach, you'll be treated to an audio-guided walk through the home and garden of the Father of Impressionism, before the crowds show up in full swing.

Stroll through the water garden and across the bridge that arches over the lily ponds. This was the exact bridge that inspired several paintings in one of Claude Monet's most famous series, the Nymphéas (Water Lilies). Learn about how the garden contributed to Monet's trademark en plein air style via your informative audio guide.

Peek inside Claude Monet's house. He lived here for 43 years with his family, and the walls still retain the essence of his existence. See his possessions and picture him going about his daily routine in the blue sitting room, the dining room, and his studio. Its all been refurbished – but home is still home!

Dine at Les Nymphéas, located next to the Monet Foundation and across from Monet's house. The restaurant serves traditional Norman cuisine with recipes from Monet's days.

Finally, at the Museum of Impressionism, discover how Impressionism was birthed and see its origins illustrated by some exceptional works of art. Then, stop for a homemade snack at Au Coin du Pain'tre bakery, just a few meters away from the painter's tomb.
