Explore the gardens of French Impressionist master Claude Monet on this intriguing half-day tour to Giverny. Stroll through the gardens outside, and get up-close looks at the waterlilies that inspired some of his most notable works.

Meet up with your guide in front of a cafe just down the street from the Arc de Triomphe and hop aboard a spacious minivan to cruise out of town toward Giverny. When you arrive, follow your guide to just outside the gardens, where you can listen to stories about the 40 years he spent here.

Stroll through the well-preserved gardens that became the subjects of many of Monet's greatest masterpieces. See the lily-traversing bridge featured in Water Lilies and the Japanese bridge and snap photos of delicate pond scenes that match up with your favorite Monet pieces. Take some time to explore the gardens on your own, spend a quiet moment at the artist's gravesite, and then return to Paris, where you can get dropped off back at the cafe.
