Itinerary
1. Home to Impressionist maestro Monet from 1833 until his demise in 1926.
2. Walk across the Japanese bridge you’ve seen somewhere before and catch your reflection in that water lily pond..
3. Time for a hearty lunch at the Moulin de Fourges, an 18th-century mill inspired by Marie Antoinette’s hamlet. Drinks included.
4. Leading us nicely on to your next stop: Versailles where you will see Louis XIV's Statue on a horse.
5. Compare and contrast your interior décor to that of Louis XIV and his wife.
6. Then waltz through the vast Hall of Mirrors. Your tour guide is at hand to answer your questions.
7. Your tour guide is at hand to answer your questions. You’re in for a treat (and numerous photo ops) in the palace’s back garden, and no garden worth its name would be complete without a fountain, sculpture, forest or two. If you’re lucky (if you choose the right date, that is), you’ll catch the Musical Fountains show, when the gardens’ numerous water features boogie to the rhythm of Louis XIV’s favorite tunes.
