Step into the world of Impressionism with our exclusive private tour dedicated to the life and works of Claude Monet. This immersive journey takes you from the vibrant colors of Giverny to the historic streets of Rouen, offering an intimate look at the landscapes that inspired one of history's greatest painters.
Your day begins in the charming village of Giverny, where Monet lived for over 40 years. You will enjoy a private walking tour of his iconic home and the world-famous gardens. Marvel at the Japanese bridge, the lush water lily pond that served as the backdrop for his legendary series, and the vibrant flower beds that bloom with seasonal splendor. Our expert guide will share personal stories, giving you a deeper understanding of the artist's daily life and creative process.
After a delightful lunch, we continue to Rouen, the capital of Normandy. Known as the 'City of a Hundred Spires,' it was here that Monet captured the shifting light on the majestic Rouen Cathedral in his famous series of paintings. You will explore the medieval old town, walk the narrow cobblestone streets, and stand before the very cathedral facade that Monet studied so intensely.
