Full description
Begin this full-day Monet bike tour with a scenic coach journey through the spectacular wheat and sunflower fields of Normandy. Speed by the lazy Seine River, and stop off at the village of Vernon. Here, you will visit the charming farmers' market to buy picnic supplies. Then, hop-on your bike and pedal across the river to a beautiful park along the banks of the Seine. After lunch, enjoy a relaxing 3-mile (5-kilometer) ride down bike paths to the village of Giverny. Cruise past Giverny Church and its cemetery, which contains graves of local citizens dating back to the 17th Century, as well as British soldiers from World War 2, and even Monet himself buried within his family's vault. Pass Hotel Baudy, where Impressionist painters Manet and Renoir used to paint. You will then arrive at the highlight of the day, Monet's Garden. Spend about 90 minutes exploring the gardens and house, including the famous water lily pond where some of his most famous works originated. Additionally, you can explore the village of Giverny, which boasts the American Museum of Art, located across the street from Monet's Gardens, as well as numerous cafés and small streets begging to be discovered.

My son and I had a wonderful time. There wasn’t a part of the trip that we didn’t enjoy!! OJ did an incredible job with our group! The picnic location was beautiful and Monet’s garden and home were breathtaking!! A trip of a lifetime!! The bike ride was so much fun. I will definitely do another trip on a bike.

This was one of the highlights of my week in Paris. Of course we were lucky and had a beautiful day. OJ is great guide. He provided a wealth of information about Monet while also speaking to everyone on our trip individually. He’s a people person and made sure that everyone not only enjoyed the trip but looked out for us and offered directions home, metro information and dinner recs. He made frequent checks throughout our ride to make sure the flock was still together. The bike ride was absolutely lovely and Monet’s house, garden and Giverny are paradise.
