 An excellent excursion outside of Paris is to Claude Monet's breathtaking gardens in Normandy. His unique house, the quaint villages of Vernon & Giverny and our fabulous bicycle ride along the Seine are a welcome change from the hustle-bustle of Paris. Allow us to make the out-of-town trip an easy and enjoyable one for you.
We'll go by rail through the beautiful wheat & sunflower fields of Normandy to the village of Vernon. There we’ll collect our bikes, head to the market for picnic supplies and then to lunch along the river in a beautiful park. Finally we’ll pedal down our private path to Monet’s gardens where we’ll spend the afternoon inside the most gorgeous landscape in Normandy.
Highlights of the tour include:
Monet’s Gardens - imagine stepping into the canvas of your favorite Monet painting. Beautiful flowers, the Japanese Bridge and the famous water lilies await you.
Monet’s House - visit the inside of Monet’s house to see where he lived and his fascination with Asian art.
Vernon Farmer’s Market - purchase fruit, meat, honey, bread and drinks directly from their makers.
Picnic - a beautiful park along the Seine with the vieux moulin just off the bank. Relax in the grass or take a seat at a picnic table while you enjoy your meal.
Monet’s Grave - Monet is buried along with his family at the small Giverny church.
Bike Ride - a 5km ride on a bike path nestled between the bluffs and the Seine River.
* Includes guide, bicycle, transportation to and from Paris and entrance to Monet's house and gardens
