Amazing! - This was our favorite day during our trip to France. Our tour guide Ang was a fountain of knowledge. We loved Monet’s garden and walking in VanGogh’s last footsteps! Having a skilled driver get us out and back into Paris was critical! Highly recommend!!!

Wonderful day in Giverny and Auvers. - Jean Paul was very knowledgeable and easy to speak with. He took us to the Monet water garden first before it was too crowded. We then wandered the garden and home. Afterwards he drove us to Auvers and we visited the inn where Van Gogh died. I thought it would be morbid but it was respectful. He showed us the scenes that Van Gogh painted and eventually Van Gogh’s grave. While we ate lunch he moved the van to the cemetery as walking a long time is hard for me. He was a very good and thoughtful guide. Highly recommend. I was a wonderful day. Many tours do not include Auvers as a Van Gogh fan I loved this day. I will always remember it.

Great Site in the French Countryside, a good pairing with Paris Museums - Gil was very friendly and knowledgable. We especially appreciate arriving earlier at the Gardens and Mansion before things got too crowded. Overall a great experience, especially combined with later visits to the Musee D'Orsay and Monet Museum Marmatton in Paris. One note is that the tour decription on Viator mentioned admission to the Maison du Docteur Gachetamd and the Musee des impressionnismes, which we did not visit. We were not sure if this was an oversight or an incorrect description on your web site.

A great experience with a knowledgeable guide - Great trip with a knowledgeable guide. Giverny was beautiful. Monet created the perfect garden to inspire his art. We were picked up from our hotel which was far superior to having to traipse across town to a meeting point. The fee was reasonable. The Van Gough portion was also moving and we ate at the cafe where he ate and lived upstairs.

A Perfect Day - A perfect day. Our guide, Jean-Paul, picked us up right on time and drove us to Giverny. I’ve always loved Monet so seeing his water garden was magical. I was so happy we were not a part of any of the large groups shuffling along the path. We were able to easily navigate around them to find beautiful spots to stop and enjoy our surroundings. The village itself is charming. The visit to Auvers-sur-Oise was spectacular. I loved visiting the doctor’s home and then the room where Van Gogh lived (and died) during his short stay there. The most incredible part of the trip was to stand where Van Gogh painting the Auvers Church. I purchased a small version of the painting from the d’Orsay 40 years ago and never dreamed one day I would see it in person! Jean-Paul was a fabulous guide patiently answering questions and listening to stories.

Enjoyable and fuss-free day trip - It was a really enjoyable day.. with a guide who shared nuggets of information from the city of Paris to the towns of Giverny, Auvers and everything in between. With a personal vehicle, we could decide to spend more or less time at each location which was useful with young children around.

Fantastic Day Trip - don't miss it! - Jean Paul was an amazing guide who provided us with not only a great insight into Monet and Van Gogh but some other interesting perspectives. Monet's garden is truly amazing and seeing where Van Gogh spent his last days and exactly what he painted was extremely worthwhile. Thank you for the experience

Gardens / Van Gogh great. Guiding needs improvement - The garden is magnificent and Van Gogh tour was great. I appreciated the back ground given while driving there., but once we got to the garden the guide spent very little time with with us. We were listening to another group that had a guide. Also, we were unable to have lunch at Van Goh’s restaurant I guess a misunderstanding with our reservations. They did offer to have lunch at outside table , but that defeats the whole experience . 🤷🏽‍♀️
