Co dělat v Claude Monet's House and Gardens

Dne 6. září jsme se zúčastnili jednodenního zájezdu do Van Goghova domu, Monetových zahrad a Versailleského paláce. Byl to skvělý zážitek v malé skupině. Náš průvodce byl velmi profesionální. Na místě posledního odpočinku Van Gogha jsme viděli zlatá pšeničná pole vlnící se ve větru. Navíc jsme nemuseli čekat ve frontě na vstupenky a mohli jsme rychle vstoupit. Monetovy zahrady byly nádherné, všude kvetly květiny, japonský most nabízel malebný výhled a lekníny v jezírku jako by čekaly na své krásné rozkvěty. Výklad o Versailleském paláci byl velmi pečlivý a ukázal nám slavné období Ludvíka XIV.

I went because I was invited by relatives who are currently staying in Paris. Since I had visited the Orangerie and Orsay the day before, the experience was even more moving. I'm not very knowledgeable about paintings, so I don't think I would have gone out of my way to visit if I hadn't been invited, but it was absolutely the right decision to go. It was the most memorable place of this trip!

Monet's house and gardens were very beautiful, and I was able to enjoy the scenery of the Normandy countryside. The length of the stay was also just right. However, regarding the meeting time, I had booked the 9:00 tour, but the instructions for other meeting details stated 8:15, which was confusing. In the end, I went to the meeting point at 8:00 and waited for an hour. Since there were several other groups in the same situation, I hope the descriptions can be made consistent. The tour itself was very good.

The guided tour to Versailles and Monet’s House was well organized and enjoyable from start to finish. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared interesting stories and historical details along the way. Versailles was absolutely stunning, while Monet’s House and gardens were peaceful and beautiful—especially for anyone who loves art and nature. The transportation and schedule made it easy to visit both places in one day without worrying about the logistics.

A wonderful, well organised trip. the time at each place was correct. the staff was extremely friendly and forthcoming. I loved every bit of it. since we were only a group of five, we had a very comfortable car well equipped with water bottles and long charging cables. The accompanying staff was very nice and had answers to all our questions.

S manželem jsme se zúčastnili jednodenního zájezdu do Giverny a Versailles. Náhodou jsme byli jedinými účastníky, takže to byla luxusní prohlídka. Byli jsme trochu unavení a občas jsme se nemohli soustředit na anglický výklad, ale náš průvodce Dario byl po celou dobu klidný a trpělivě nám vše vysvětloval. Až příště navštívíme Paříž, rádi bychom si Daria opět vyžádali. Také řídil velmi dobře. Děkujeme.

Toto není prohlídka s průvodcem. Měli jsme pouze řidiče, který nás odvezl k atrakcím a zpět.

Michael was an incredible guide! He knew what he was talking about and he was very funny and witty, I had the best time. Both places are beautiful and it was really good learning about Van Gogh and Monet. Definitely fell in love with Van Gogh and his work, especially after visiting Auvers-sur-Oise. Worth the trip for sure and would love to come back to take my son!
