Where to?

    A private chauffeur takes you from your Paris hotel to Giverny, the village where Claude Monet lived and painted — about 80 km, normally 1.2–1.8 hours each way. Visit the house and the water-lily gardens, linger over lunch and return to Paris the same day in your own Mercedes V-Class. Send your date for a personal quotation.

    Art lovers and first-time visitors; families who want a calm day out; guests with limited mobility who prefer to avoid train-and-shuttle connections.

    Three ways to travel

    01

    One-way transfer

    We collect you at your Paris hotel and take you to the destination. You continue on your own — by train, for example — or arrange the return separately.

    02

    Return with waiting

    The car and chauffeur-host stay close while you visit and bring you back to Paris the same day.

    03

    Chauffeur at your disposal

    The whole day with you: unhurried stops on the way, lunch where you choose, and a programme you can adjust as you go.

    The village

    Monet’s garden and house

    Giverny is a small village in Normandy’s Eure department, just outside the Île-de-France. Monet lived here for more than forty years; the house, the flower garden and the water-lily garden with its Japanese bridge are the main reason to come.

    It is also a place to slow down: a village lunch, a walk along the lanes and, nearby, the Museum of Impressionisms.

    Timing

    A half day or a full day

    Giverny works as a long morning or a full day. In the high season the gardens are busy in the middle of the day, so an early start or a later arrival often gives you more space. Book your entrance directly with the venue and tell us the time.

    Giverny pairs well with a stop in nearby Vernon on the way back, or with an afternoon in Rouen if you prefer a longer day — we plan the combination with you.

    Comfort

    Door to door, at your pace

    Public transport to Giverny involves a train and a shuttle or a bus, which is hard going with luggage, children or limited mobility. A private car takes you from your hotel to the village and back without the changes.

    Price

    A personal quotation, not an estimate

    We do not publish a price for day trips, because it depends on your plan: the distance, the time on the road and at your disposal, whether you return the same day, how many of you travel, tolls and parking, and extras such as a licensed guide.

    Send us your date and what you would like to see and we reply with one clear quotation for the whole itinerary.

    Host or guide

    Your chauffeur-host and a licensed guide

    Your chauffeur-host drives, helps with your route, suggests stops and shares general information from the car. Commentary inside museums and historic monuments usually requires a licensed guide-conférencier — we can arrange one on request. Read driver-host or licensed guide to choose.

    Families & groups

    Room for the whole party

    The Mercedes V-Class carries up to seven passengers with generous luggage space, and child seats are available on request. Tell us how many of you are travelling and the ages of any children when you ask for your quotation.

    Yes. Choose English, French, Russian or Romanian when you ask for your quotation.
