    Diane_E, Sep 2022
    Imagining how much simpler Life looked to be in the period that Claud Monet lived. The tour portrayed this especially well. In addition Maxims insight as regards to the periferal characteristics of both Monet and Van Gogh. Max was an excellent guide!
    One day two great artists
    Kathleen_C, Sep 2022
    Seeing Van Gogh’s grave, next to his brother Theo’s. HE only lived there a few months but his life left such an impact on the world.
    An experience not to be missed
    Andrea_S, Sep 2022
    Monet's gardens alone is worth the trip! Extraordinarily beautiful and we were there on 11 September so not spring blooms. I can only imagine then. Our guide was Max and what a great guide!!! Very upbeat, informed, considerate and entertaining. The countryside is beautiful and a great break from the city. So worth the money. Van Gogh is my favorite artist so Auvers was a special treat. Seeing his grave was more touching than I expected. And we met some wonderful people on tour with us and had a lovely lunch together! A perfect day. Highly recommended.
    Glorious Giverny

    The gardens were breathtaking! We were so pleased we saw his paintings at the Musee de l’Orangerie before we went. We also learned so much more about Van Gogh’s death. How tragic.

    Personally, it was emotinally overwhelming for me when I did this specific trip, I was keep reminding my self that I'm in the actual garden of Monet, I'm seeing the Japanese bridge, I'm standing in the same room that Van Goah spent the last couple of months of his life, I'm seeing actual landmarks still exists in Van Goah's paintings.
    10/10 Would do Again

    It was a very lovely well timed out day. Our guide Guillaume was exceptional- has a lot of knowledge and answers to your questions. He was very kind and made the day relaxing and enjoyable for everyone. Good amounts of free time to wander and explore on your own. Nice small tour group which was also preferable as well. Such a great way to hit some amazing poignant places in Claude and Vincent’s lives.
    Fantastic experience
    Carissa_C, Jul 2022
    We had a wonderful tour guide. We arrived early to Monet’s Gardens and were able to take photos before the masses of people came in. Our guide offered great commentary throughout the day, and we enjoyed thoroughly the day.

    Very very worth it! I highly suggest this tour and our guide, Max. If I were to come back to France, I would definitely do this again.
    Great combination tour!
    Julie_B, May 2022
    Our guide, Maxim, was friendly, organized, knowledgeable and fun. We were happy to enjoy Auvrers-sur-Oise, Van Gogh’s final residence, in addition to the typical Giverny tour. Giverny, of course, was incredibly beautiful.
    Great Monet and Van Gogh Tour
    Philip_C, May 2022
    This was the opportunity to see places that two of my favorite artists had lived and done some of their most important work. Our guide was well informed, friendly and helpful. The gardens at Givency were as beautiful as I imagined. Having early access through the tour meant it was not mobbed by crowds, as it was by the time we left. The additional stop at Auvers-sur-Oise to see Van Gogh’s Home was well worth it.

    Shirley_P, Apr 2022
    This is the second time I have been at the Van Gogh house, garden, and pond. It is one of the most extraordinary trips to which I have been. We had plenty of time to see all of it. In fact, I went around the pond twice. It was worth it. Although one has time to see the town where Van Gogh spent his last days and the cemetery in which he was buried, the very small room in which he died had no furniture and was not so enlightening. The driver was very good.
    What a wonderful day and...
    JoAnne_Y, Apr 2022
    What a wonderful day and experience to see Monet's home and his wonderful Gardens. Enjoyed hearing so much about his life and seeing it all. Van Gogh was amazing as well. Sorry he ended he life so young, so tragic. Our driver was awesome and a careful driver.
    Amazing Tour!
    Juanita_T, Jul 2019
    Our Tour Guide was very knowledgeable and a wonderful guide! We absolutely LOVED IT!!! The Gardens at Monet's home was stunning! And visiting where Vincent Van Gogh painted and walked the streets and also visiting his resting place was very special to us as well. Well Done!
    Monet and Van Gogh
    Sandra_W, Jun 2019
    This was a day trip. Smallgroup. Guide good, pleasant. Monet's garden was fabulous. It was a pleasure to walk in the footsteps of both these artists. I did find it harder to relate to Van Gogh than to Monet.
    Enchanting Experience
    WanYi_C, May 2019
    The Monet's Garden was absolutely stunning even though it was not during the peak season in May. I could see a lot of flowers blooming and set against the bright sunny day, it was a sight to behold. As for Auvers-sur-Oise, it was interesting to hear the guide tell us little snippets of story of Van Gogh and his life.
    Sueño hecho realidad!

    Estar en la casa, en la recámara y mira por su ventana los mismos paisajes que miraba Monet, una experiencia inexplicable 🙌🤩
