Stop atThe Clos Normand - Fondation Claude Monet
The Clos Normand is a stunning part of Claude Monet's famous garden located in Giverny, France. This beautiful garden was the inspiration for many of Monet's iconic paintings, particularly his series of water lilies. A visit to the Clos Normand offers a glimpse into the artistic genius and the natural beauty that influenced Monet's work. As you enter the Clos Normand, you are immediately captivated by the vibrant colors and meticulously designed flower beds. The garden is carefully divided into different sections, each showcasing a variety of plant species. Walking along the gravel paths, you'll encounter an enchanting display of flowers, including roses, irises, tulips, and many other species that change with the seasons. The layout of the garden is a masterpiece in itself, with its symmetrical design and harmonious blending of colors. Monet was a master of color combinations, and this is evident as you witness the interplay between different hues and shades throughout the garden.

Beautiful Morning in Giverny
Cary_C, Dec 2024
Frederic was prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. Knew all of the best spots for pictures and eased us through the gardens. His efficiency even gave us time to stop at a beautiful spot on the Seine for a quick breakfast and pictures.
Easy conversation and his impeccable van made the ride pleasant and quick!
Looking forward to another adventure with him!
Beautiful enjoyable afternoon

A wonderful private tour service. Philippe is extremely knowledgeable and adds so much to the day by sharing all of his insights. We learned so much about Monet and Giverny on our tour. It was a pleasure to spend the day with Phillipe and we highly recommend Best of France Tours. I look forward to booking another tour with Philippe when I return to Paris.

I combed through aviator for a half day trip to Giverny that would pick us up at our hotel. We hired Best of France tours to take us, two 66 and two 69 year olds. Frederic Meunier picked us up on time. He entertained and educated us all the way to Giverny. He guided us quickly to Monet’s house as the line was comparatively short. Guides are not allowed in with the groups so he to,d us what to look for. We met back up with him . We toured the gardens while he told us about the. The gardens themselves are stunning as are the water lilys.
We felt Frederic was invaluable and would happily us him again. On the way back into Paris he recommended the Mormottan Monet museum in the 16th arr., where he dropped us off. It was our “Monet Day”. It was wonderful.

Dear Marcia, thank you for taking the time to write this wonderful review, it was a pleasure having you with us in Giverny and we are glad that you enjoyed the Marmottan museum as well :)
Philippe at Giverny was incredible
Gillian_L, Dec 2024
We had an incredible experience on this private tour. I have done Giverny by train, but this way is 100% worth it! Philippe is truly an exceptional human being. He has a really high EQ and set just the right tone for our group. Also, he is an absolute expert on all things France, including the topic du jour, Giverny. We really appreciated how well he shared his knowledge with us in a way that felt more personable than simply a tour.
He picked us up in his like new, comfortable Mercedes luxury van, with waters. The trip to/from was easy and we got to see a lot of history along the way going through cute little French villages. Skipping the line at Monet’s was a life saver, and Philippe expertly navigated the grounds pushing one of us in a wheelchair provided by the estate, while guiding us on the tour.
He also guided us on where to take the best photographs and he took AMAZING photos of our group.
I can’t recommend him enough. We wanted to try to get him for the rest of our tours, but of course he’s fully booked! Thank you Philippe, for such a memorable trip to Giverny.
