Educational Autumn Delight - While my goal was to be a Spring experience of the Gardens, my October visit met and exceeded expectations of colour and symphony of composition of the gardens. Our small group guide (Blue Fox Travel) was superb in both our garden visit and the drive to and from Paris.

Another great day - Our guide, Etienne, was outstanding. In spite of a gray, drizzly day, he made our tour bright and colorful with his stories and background details.

Good trip to Giverny - This was a great way to see Giverny if you don’t have lots of time. The small group size is great and traveling in a van is very comfortable. Our guide was great. He was informative and let us roam a bit in our own which I really liked. It did seem like our time was cut a little short as we got back almost an hour early.

Giverny in autumn - A great day out with Frankie, who went the extra mile to explain about all the artists at Giverny, not just Monet. Really enjoyed the tour. Gardens amazing despite being late in the season

Enjoyable to walk through... - Enjoyable to walk through the village; near Monet's grave is a beautiful village memorial to a British flight crew who lost their lives when their plane crashed. Monet's house is incredible and the gardens, he designed, are amazing to see and compare to his paintings in Paris museums! (Paintings in his house also!!)
