Highlights
Leave Paris behind and step into the world Claude Monet once painted into existence. In Giverny, your private guide leads you through gardens where Monet didn’t just live, but saw differently. Flower beds flow like brushstrokes, and every path draws you deeper into his imagination. You wander through the famous water garden, where the Japanese bridge rests quietly over the lily pond that inspired some of Impressionism’s most iconic works. It’s one of those rare places where the paintings start becoming real. Inside Monet’s house, the experience turns more intimate. Rooms filled with colour, his studio, the windows he once looked through, everything feels close, as if he has just stepped out. Your guide brings his story to life, weaving together his influences and the way Giverny shaped his vision. The village unfolds gently around you, with time for a relaxed lunch in a quiet local restaurant. For those who want more, the Museum of Impressionism adds another layer to the journey.

About Paris
Paris pairs grand boulevards and riverside monuments with café terraces, art collections of global stature and neighbourhoods that feel like villages.
The Seine runs through the heart of the city, past the Île de la Cité with Notre-Dame and the Sainte-Chapelle, the long façade of the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay in its former railway station. Downriver, the Eiffel Tower rises over the Champ de Mars, and the Arc de Triomphe crowns the Champs-Élysées.
