Editor's take

Blue Fox pairs Giverny with Versailles on a minivan trip from Paris. The day lasts 9 hours with up to 8 people. Your driver is also your guide.

You visit Monet’s house and gardens in Giverny. At Versailles, the route includes the Gardens and Queen’s Hamlet. You explore the Palace independently after timed entry. For a day spent entirely at Versailles, choose a tour without Giverny.

Is the Palace visit on Blue Fox’s Giverny trip guided?

1 option. Prices are per adult for a party of two, the usual lowest price of each option. The booking page shows the price for your date.
