    Monet’s House and Garden - Dreams do come true

    Tamara_H, May 2026
    Alexandra made my dream come true in visiting Claude Monet’s beautiful house and garden. Her knowledge of Monet’s life was excellent. I felt like I was visiting with a friend. There were two other ladies in the group and we all had a great day. A special treat was visiting the Joan D’arc museum. Lunch was enjoyed in a medieval village and Alexandra drove us all home safely. I look forward to my next experience with Alexandra - Back Trip

    She was a good driver, but not very knowledgeable.

    Monet’s house and garden and Rouen are worth the visit, but do your on research before as our guide wasn’t very informative. I knew we were in trouble when I asked her what that big building was across the river and she had to look at her GPS. It was the Louvre. I enjoyed being driven and she was a good driver, but not really educated on what we were seeing. She read out loud from her phone and some photocopies.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed visiting Monet’s House & Gardens and Rouen, as these are truly exceptional places to discover. We would however like to provide some context regarding your experience. Your visit took place on May 8th, which is a national holiday in France (Victory Day). Due to the exceptionally high number of visitors in Giverny that day, waiting times to enter Claude Monet’s House & Gardens reached approximately 3 hours and can even extend to 4–5 hours during holidays and weekends. Unfortunately, these delays are entirely managed by the museum and remain outside of our control. In order to make your experience more enjoyable during this waiting period, we upgraded your tour by offering complimentary tickets to the Museum of Impressionism in Giverny, an additional visit not normally included in the tour. Additionally, your booking ultimately became a private experience for only two guests, allowing you to benefit from the full attention of the guide and a more personalized visit throughout the day. Regarding your comment about the Louvre Museum, we would like to clarify that the Louvre is located in Paris, nearly 100 km away from Giverny, and is not part of the tour itinerary. Our guide was most likely using the GPS for navigation and traffic management while driving safely. We would also like to explain that many art and Impressionism guides use tablets, images, and printed materials during tours. This allows guests to better understand Claude Monet’s life, his paintings, and the Impressionist movement through visual support that is not provided inside the museum itself. This is a common and professional practice for art-focused tours. We sincerely appreciate your feedback and remain committed to providing the best possible experience to all our guests. Best regards, Liviu C.

    Very personal experience in a small group

    Pauline_M, May 2026
    Alexandra was a very good guide. The tour was a good pace. It was a dream to visit Monet’s garden and home. Rouen was an interesting old town and the place of Joan of Arc’s demise.

    Excellent day trip

    Fantastic tour, well designed. I booked the VIP option to be picked up from the hotel, on the booking program it didnt let me put in my hotel. But paid anyway and contacted the tour operator, not a problem he picked me up from the hotel. Really great tour would highly recommend it to anyone. .
