Absolutely enjoyed our trip! The two tour guides, *** are excellent, very polite, friendly humorous, multi-linguistic. They are such lovely people and we will definitely use their service again.

We had 3 generations in our group and the trip appealed to us all. Our tour guide picked us up from our rented apartment and proceeded to inform and entertain from the moment we stepped into the spacious, air conditioned van. Geverny was a highlight of our trip! Even the lunch provided was memorable for the picturesque setting and delicious fare.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful this whole day was. I was picked up at my Paris hotel by a lovely French woman who spoke English. I spent the day with 6 other English speaking people so eight of us set out in a small mini-van driven by our guide.
We arrived at the Monet Gardens which are beautiful and a thrill for me to see as a lover of ex<x>pressionism. The group was very congenial. We went from there to a lovely restaurant in a small town. The setting was beautiful. We settled into a corner by a large fireplace at a beautifully set table with two bottles of wine and enjoyed an excellent three course meal and conversation. We then went to Versailles and walked around there and viewed the gardens from a distance - the place is huge. Our group met for a beer at the restaurant at our meeting place and then were safely transported back to our hotel. Our guide was excellent and lovely to be with. She kept on schedule without us feeling pushed and explained everything to us. I knew that going to 2 places in one day would just give an overview but that was all the time I had and I went away very satisfied and very happy to have this opportunity. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who goes to Paris for a limited time and wants to see these places. I was hesitant to book on line. Everything happen as is was to happen and all so easy for me.

Monet's garden is a must see! Absolutely beautiful. Versailles was extremely busy and we were very grateful to Ceceila for waiting in line for us to enter the Palace whilst we toured the gardens to save time. What a trooper! Thoroughly enjoyed the day. Ceceila has great knowledge regarding the history of both Giverny/Monet and Versailles.

Ricardo was a great guide well informed and pleasant I only have one suggestion have golf carts as an option for the Versailles tour. He said that they were 30 Euros and everyone in our van would have paid. We had a small tour with 6 guests and it was perfect. Enjoyed the people in the group. The restaurant for lunch was perfect. I wanted more time in Giverny but understand the time restraints of two tours

Max was an excellent guide, informed, easy going but on task so that we kept up and saw everything we were supposed to. The lunch was surprisingly good, and the setting (The Old Mill) was picturesque. Getting 2 great attractions into the one visit was fantastic.

adorei o passeio e principalmente o guia. Muito atencioso e prestativo

Our driver was so informative and enthusiastic about the areas he showed us. I liked being in the small group as it allowed for a great lunch in a wonderful setting.

El guía (Junior) excelente, puntualidad, confort, conocimientos. Giverny y alrededores, es increiblemente bello, muy recomendable, un lugar lleno de encanto y paz.

This was a great tour. The guide was really interesting and we had the right amount of time in each place to explore on our own. The lunch was delicious and in a really beautiful location.

Loved the day trip to Monet's Garden very relaxing and peaceful.
Versailles a truly beautiful palace with magnificent gardens.
Great enjoyable day

Hello,

We visited Versailles and Giverny last week… We had a wonderful time! I personally liked the best the Lilly pond and garden where Claude Monet had created his famous paintings. We made a stop by the little café where we had a nice lunch with a bottle of French red wine. Also we really liked Versailles gardens and fountains. All trip was well organized and pick-up and drop-off was on time.

I will highly recommend to take this trip.

Best regards,
Marina

Our tour guide was wonderful, entertaining, and friendly. He gave clear instructions and interesting insights to the places we visited. This tour was well worth every penny we spent!

I really liked the trip. Off-course Giverny & Versailles have there own flavors, but our chauffeur - Laura was excellent - and luckily our fellow passengers who boarded in van were friendly. Overall I rate it 5 out 5, as it was a memorable experience.

We loved this tour. We would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to see Monet's house and gardens in Giverny and the palace at Versailles. Our driver Stan was great and so were the tours and lunch. There was plenty of time to see everything and the whole day was stress-free because all the details were taken care of by City Discovery. A fabulous day!!

Excellent guide. He was very informative, friendly, and helpful. He used the driving time to give us good background information to put what we saw at the sites into context.

Sophie, our tour guide was excellent. She told us interesting facts and other tidbits about the sights we passed etc. that we wouldn't have found in tour books. The only reservation I had was the cost. For example, in contrast, the day trip of the same length to Windsor Castle, Stonehenge and Bath was half the price. Now I must be fair. Windsor Castle trip took place on a large tour bus & did not include a lunch or hotel pickup/drop off, however, I felt that the price was still a little steep. We very much enjoyed Versailles and especially Giverny. Wonderful!

I would have liked some commentary during the bus trip to geverny and Versailles. We had to keep asking questions such as is that the Forest of Fontainebleau? or what town is that? otherwise it was the highlight of my trip , especially Giverny. Thank you. I'm glad I went on the tour..

The highlight for us was the terrific guide - best ever. Also the venue for the included lunch was well above average. When we return to Paris will certainly do other City Discovery tours.

this tour was wonderfull and everything we hoped for and loved having just a small group of people who were all very nice too.will recommend this to our friends.regards bev munce
