Le Havre Shore Excursion: Private Trip to Monet's Giverny Discount Tickets

Overview

Claude Monet spent 43 years in Giverny. He designed the garden himself — the flower beds, the water garden, the Japanese bridge — and then spent decades painting it. The Nymphéas series that fills entire rooms of the Orangerie in Paris was born here, looking at this pond, in this light. From Le Havre, Giverny is two hours through the Normandy countryside. This private tour picks you up directly at the cruise terminal and takes you there without the stress of trains, taxis, or shared buses. At Giverny, you have three hours — enough time to walk the flower garden slowly, cross the famous green bridge over the lily pond, and visit the house where Monet lived and worked. The rooms are preserved as he left them: the yellow dining room, the blue kitchen, the walls covered in Japanese prints he collected throughout his life. Your return to ship is fully guaranteed.
