Giverny is very much worth seeing. The lunch at the Mill was delicious and beautiful. Versailles was magnificent. It rained and we didn't get to see much of the gardens, but it was a good overall view of the palace. In order to see both in one day, this was wonderful.

We were thrilled with our trip to Versailles and Giverny. With only 5 days in the Paris area, we wanted to find a comfortable, carefree way to see these important sights. The bus ride was smooth and comfortable, our guide was informative and charming. Giverny was a delight, and a welcome break from the frantic pace of Paris. We enjoyed a delicious lunch in a beautiful setting with our travel mates and then headed to Versailles which was breathtaking. The tour allowed us time on our own to explore and filled us in on interesting details we should know about the area. All in all, it was one of the high points of our vacation.

The guide was fabulous. She was very gracious and attentive. The bus driver was an excellent driver, very polite. Would highly recommend. The restaurant was lovely, food very good. However, they only had one waitress for 30 plus people. She worked very hard and then she was pulled to help another waiter with his tables. Poorly staffed restaurant.

The trip made for an absolutely wonderful day for our family! The beauty of Monet's gardens and home to see where the artist actually lived and worked will forever be a highlight of our vacation. The splendor of the Palace of Versailles had to be seen in order to be believed. Lunch was great. We would definitely recommend this trip!

The tour was absolutely great and the guide was informative and responsible. Timing was perfect since nobody was late or delaying. We also get to meet nice people during lunch at the lovely county-style restaurant. Definitely worth it if it's your first time visiting the two places but wouldn't recommend for people that want to explore more by themselves.

Our tour guide was excellent. She went above and beyond to make sure that my elderly mother was well looked after. The choice of restaurant for our lunch was in an idyllic setting and the food was superb. It was a wonderful day in the French countryside and a fascinating tour of Versailles.

We had a sensational day! Our tour guide was lovely, Giverny was all we had hoped for and more, we had a lovely lunch in a beautiful location and Versailles was mind blowing. All in all, a truly magical day and worth every Euro cent.

My time in Giverny was my favorite part of my whole Paris trip! I am an impressionism fan and was deeply affected by visiting Claude Monet's world. The bus drive through the country side in Normandy was beautiful. Versailles was impressive. Our guide was excellent.

The day was beautiful, and our tour guide was great. The little restaurant they took us to lunch was also very nice.

It was a wonderful day out. Our guide was brilliant, and the commentary was interesting and fun. Yes, we would have liked to spend more time at both places, but this was the best way to see as much as possible during our short stay in Paris. Excellent value for money. The only negative was undercooked chicken for lunch!

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Really liked our tour guide - her personality made the day special. Giverny was beautiful, as was the place we had lunch. Food was not great, but fine. We would have liked a little longer at Versailles. It was my favorite day in France.

Monet's house and gardens were stunning, an experience not to be missed. Versailles was amazing but very crowded. Tour guide very good, and everything went according to plan.
