Best Giverny Tour
H1575UWwendyc, Nov 2024
Even though we weren't sure we wanted a bike tour, this tour was the highest rated so we selected it. We were not disappointed as it was one of the most fun activities during our trip to Paris! Tour Guide OJ was a funny, kind and knowledgeable tour guide and made the trip fantastic. Monet's hours and gardens was wonderful and the skip the link perk was great! Would definitely recommend!

Amir was FANTASTIC and this tour was unforgettable. We felt safe, entertained, and taken care of the entire time, hearing stories on the bus, enjoying our picnic and loving the bike ride and visit to Giverny. This was one of our favorite days in France!
If you’re looking for a unique experience, this is it!

I am so glad I booked this tour. Our guides were very knowledgeable along the trip. There was an issue with the timeliness of the bus, but the company maintained their professionalism and talked with us, apologized and guaranteed to make up the time. I was very appreciative to find people who care for your comfort, especially when loaning my daughter a jacket for the day because we underestimated that late May/early summer chill. The town we stopped in was just perfect and the market was a dream. I tried out my toddler French with the vendors and they were very kind and friendly.By the time we arrived at our picnic, our group felt warm and welcoming. I think it has a lot to do with the energy the guides give. The bike ride was a good little workout, despite how easy it’s described. It does require a bit more endurance for those of us who commute mainly by car 😬. I am so glad we made this journey on the bikes though, as it provided a lot of quiet time to look out at the countryside. You may be lucky enough to spot a few cows. It is totally okay to point and get excited about cows on a French pasture. Cow!🐄
Well worth it!
