Wonderful tour with very knowledgeable tour guide. Definitely recommend doing Versailles with tour guide and going early to beat the traffic. We were first tour and it was much less crowded than when we were leaving. Monets house and gardens in Giverny were spectacular. My husband even loved this and he’s not into flowers.
We had 2 tour guides on our day-long trip and both guides were awesome! Sarah grew up in Giverney so she knew everyone there. No queuing up or waiting in lines for us, Sarah just zipped past everyone with a smile and a wave of her badge. Sheer suggestion for lunch was spot on and she even knew where to stand to take great photos of us!The Versailles tour was great but we did not get as much time in the gardens as we would have liked. The guide there was extremely knowledgeable and helped us navigate the crowds.
Car too small for 8 passengers otherwise terrific. Guide was excellent.
