Versailles undoubtedly makes lasting impressions on visitors, but so will the lily ponds in Giverny that inspired Claude Monet to new artistic heights. See them both in one day, with a gourmet lunch at the renowned Moulin de Fourges.

Giverny was one of my favorite places to visit my entire trip. I’m a novice gardener and art enthusiast, so this was a dream come true. Our driver provided an adventurous ride, an excellent lunch, and lots of entertainment. I loved all the details he knew about Versailles (even if it is very crowded and hot in July). Also, I have back issues and appreciated the ability to take most of the trip at my own pace, with several car ride breaks in between. A great balance of structured guidance and flexibility to roam both places. Highly recommended!

Fred was a fantastic tour guide. Very knowledgeable about both Monet and the Palace of Versailles. Went back and forth whether to book a trip with or without lunch but so glad we booked this trip. The quaint restaurant was superb. The opulence of the palace was mind blowing however, the highlight for both of us was Monet’s lily pond/ garden and house tour. Simply amazing and the transportation was very comfortable with a great driver Florian. I would recommend Fred and this tour without reservations

My wife and I took this tour (Versailles-Giverny) on August 13th. We really enjoyed both Monet's gardens and Versailles. The driver/tour guide was friendly and funny and made the trip a joy. Versailles was very busy but it was peak tourist season but still worth seeing.
