What travelers are saying

"Sad to see a once good tour company stumble and fall into mediocrity. That’s Tauck post-Covid. My May 2023 tour of Normandy, Brittany and the Loire Valley was done on the cheap by Tauck, yet cost me thousands of dollars extra as a solo traveler on a special small-group tour. 

5-star hotels switched to 3 and 4 (without any compensation or explanation)… many more meals “on your own”… lots of “self-guided” tours of museums and chateaux and castles we knew nothing about… airline quality “rubber chicken” dinners, not in hotel restaurants, but in sad and isolated business convention spaces… poorly-trained newer Tour Directors (like the one on this tour) with limited experience traveling outside her tiny Canadian village or dealing with people from diverse backgrounds. She even confessed that this was a second gig job that took her away from her own business back home! You get what Tauck pays for, but unfortunately, not what YOU pay for. 

Speaking to a “Guest Relations” agent was comically pointless. She tried to make everything my fault, which I now understand is par for the course with the “new” post-Covid Tauck. Please reconsider spending huge amounts of your hard-earned money on a tour company that has lost its way and no longer delivers."

What travelers are saying

"This tour has amazing sites, good hotels in great locations, great pace BUT the tour director that was assigned to be with our small group added nothing to the experience. He did not give us any info, tell us about what we were seeing, give us any info at all. The only time he talked was to tell us when the next bathroom break would be. Apparently this is common for Globus to use retirees starting another chapter. Our guide was 76 and had no energy. Travel with Gate 1 or Intreped.... guides can make or break a tour."

Getting from Paris to Giverny

The small village is located at about one hour’s travel distance from Paris and can be reached easily through the trains. You can book the tickets online or get them on the spot. The nearest train station is Saint-Lazare that is about 7 miles away from Giverny.

To cover this distance you will have to get a shuttle bus that leaves every 15 minutes for Giverny. Taxis are also waiting for passengers outside the train stations, ready to take them.

You can also rent a car from Paris directly or get down on Mantes La Jolie, the station before Saint-Lazare that has car rental service providers. However, renting a car might be more expensive and many people prefer to travel through the well-networked train system at lower costs.

Weather in Giverny

These beautiful Giverny gardens remain open 7 months of the year, i.e. April to October. Weather is pleasant throughout these months. July is peak time with more tourist crowds mainly due to being vacation time. Every month brings with it some unique kind of flowers, giving the Giverny gardens a different look every month.

If you don't like crowds, arrive early in April or May to avoid huge tourist crowds. Or you can visit in September and October when the tourists have gone back to their home. The Giverny Monet gardens remain closed for wintertime, from November to the end of March.
