Best way to see both Versailles and Giverny - Chris was an incredible tour guide. We managed to avoid the crowds and there is no way we could have seen as much or gained as much insight without a private tour.

10/10 Recommend! - Standing at the edge of Monet's pond and hearing about all of his time at Giverny was amazing. Our guide brought us to the most beautiful/delicious cafe for lunch at Versailles, and guided us through the palace with expert historical guidance. He also dropped us off at another location in Paris to help our day run more smoothly. Well worth the money!

Mom/daughter trip - My mom and I had an excellent time with our tour guide Zara. She was kind and extremely knowledgeable, sharing important historical background while keeping everything interesting.

Wonderful - Chris was a wealth of information and told us so many interesting things about Versailles and Monet. We loved this excursion and would recommend it to anybody. The lunch was very disappointing and almost inedible.

Fantastic, knowledgeable,... - Fantastic, knowledgeable, accommodating, punctual guide kept us ahead of crowds when possible and navigated us through the crowds when they were unavailable. Encyclopedic knowledge of Giverny and Versailles.

Amazing Introduction to France - What a great way to start our vacation in France! Our guide picked us up promptly at our hotel and skillfully guided us through town and on to Giverny. She was a wealth of knowledge about Paris, French culture, and what we could do in our free time. We arrived at Giverny well informed and were a bit overwhelmed with the beauty and intimacy of Giverny. We arrived early and thus avoided the crowd. Such a magical place, especially the water gardens. Then we ate lunch at a cafe steps away from the Monet's home and then off to Versailles. Again, our guide educated us about the palace, its history and architecture before we arrived. It is magnificent! Such a great tour of the place. Our guide was terrific. Then it was back to Paris. This personal tour was the highlight of our 3 weeks in France. We would recommend it to everyone.

Wonderful Tour! - This was an excellent and truly memorable day spent at both Versailles and Monet’s home and gorgeous gardens in Giverny. Comfortable vehicle and an expert guide, who was incredibly knowledgeable, interesting and a pleasure to spend the day with. Appreciated her expertise in planning the day in the best way to avoid crowds and keeping us on schedule. We loved visiting both Versailles and Giverny, as well as the relaxing break to enjoy a delicious lunch at the charming restaurant in Giverny. The additional sites along the drive made us want to return to spend more time in Normandy and the French countryside in the future. Highly recommended!

Perfect day exploring Versailles, Giverny and Monet’s Gardens! - We absolutely LOVED our day spent exploring Versailles Monets Garden and Giverny! Our tour guide Zara was absolutely amazing - seriously the best and incredibly accommodating! The day started out a little overcast and chilly but as we arrived in Giverny the clouds parted ways to the most perfect blue skys- lunch at the most adorable French restaurant was delicious and perfect and words cannot express how much we enjoyed Monet’s Gardens - simply spectacular! I highly recommend this tour!!

Ok not great - Nice having a private guide and transportation. The lunch wasn’t very good and the communication about the pick up could have been better.
