2025 Giverny Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

It takes about an hour by train from Paris. If you like Monet, you can go and see the real scenes in Monet's paintings. There is Monet's residence, garden, pond and Japanese bridge. There is also a museum. The garden is really big. I wonder how he took care of it? I would also like to remind everyone that after arriving at Vernon-Giverny Station, you can take a shuttle bus, rent a bicycle, walk, or call a taxi directly. Although the shuttle bus schedule seems to seem to run very often, there are actually quite a lot of buses. It was Sunday when I went there, so of course there were a lot of people queuing up. It took me about 40 minutes to get on the bus. The number of bicycles is limited, so I couldn't rent one on the day I wanted to. #Monet's Garden

The name of this inn is Les Rouges Gorges. The price starts from about 12,000 yen. There is no hospitality like in a Japanese inn lol We were only told that we could use the kitchen, bath, heating, etc. freely, so if you are looking for hospitality like in a Japanese inn, I think it will be quite disappointing. This inn is suitable for people who just want to stay or cook their own meals. The surrounding area is surrounded by nature and is a quiet place 🐦 For all three meals, I personally procured food from a nearby supermarket. I also had home-cooked meals and cider, a specialty of Giverny. If you want to visit Monet's house, nearby museums, churches, etc., why not stay here? I think it's worth buying and drinking the cider! 🌟🍷 #lesrougesgorges#French tourism#Paris suburbs#Monet's pond#Monet's house#French accommodation

[Love] 2015/06/22 France (Giverny - Monet Garden Fondation ClaudeMonet) [Love] I often dream of the time when I went to Paris for business and inspection 7 years ago. During the weekend, I drove my niece Jiaying and me with lawyer Zhu Xiaoyang's family. We had a half-day of leisure and drove for about an hour to Monet Garden. Every painting looked like an oil painting. I really liked it.

When I go to Paris, I really want to go to Giverny. You have to take a train for about an hour from downtown Paris and then take a shuttle bus to get there. It was Monet's garden, which is a hundred years old, and it seemed like he took good care of it. The flowers were so pretty.ㅠㅠ 💐 There's a lot of grass in June, so May might be the best! #OverseasTravel

Here is the schedule for this month's trip to Europe 🗓 I'd like to say that you can use it as a reference if you like, but it didn't go well on this day, so I'd like to tell you some things you should be careful of 🥹 6:30 Check out 7:00 Take the TER from Saint-Lazare station to Vernon - Giverny station 8:30 (2nd photo) Check into the house I booked on airbnb 9:30 (3rd photo) Missed the bus and walked for an hour to Monet's garden 11:00 (4th photo) Exhausted from walking and getting lost at the entrance, I went to see the "Fondation Claude Monet" 📍Location: 84 Rue Claude Monet, 27620 Giverny, France 14:00 (5th photo) Due to a delay in the bus from Monet's garden to Vernon, I couldn't transfer to the bus I wanted to take, and it seems that the bus's operation for the day has ended, so I spent 10,000 yen to get to "Musée We went to "le Chocolatrium" to meet the chocolatier 📍Location: 7 Avenue Michel Cluizel, 27240 Mesnils-sur-Iton, France 15:00 (6th photo) The bus from cluizel to the nearest station did not run in the evening due to a timetable change, and the area was not covered by taxi service, so we had to walk for 4 hours, but we were at a loss as to where to go, and took photos of the unchanging rapeseed flower field. 19:00 (7th photo) We got a takeout hamburger at "Bus Stop Diner". 📍Location: 8 Pl. de Paris, 27200 Vernon, France On the way back from cluizel, a French person drove us to the nearest station because there were no sidewalks and it was dangerous, so it was a relief. I would like to share the lessons learned from this trip 🥹 1. Don't forget that Normandy is more rural than Paris, so access is poor 2. Double-check the bus timetables right before your trip to make sure they haven't changed 3. Install a taxi app just in case (check in advance whether a taxi is available for the return trip from your destination) If you can't travel by car or are a beginner traveler, it's probably best to avoid making large trips in Normandy as much as possible ⚠️ #0yentrip #Normandy #France #Frenchtourism

In September, I visited early in the morning, right at the opening time. As soon as the door opened, I was greeted by a truly magical landscape. The moment I passed through the entrance and stepped into the garden, I felt like I had entered Monet's painting. Since there weren't many tourists yet, I was able to quietly and slowly appreciate the flowers, pond, and green trees. In particular, when I first saw the lotus pond, it was breathtaking. The lotuses were floating on the pond slightly covered in water mist, and the green bridge was gently connected — It was a truly quiet and beautiful moment, disconnected from the world. 🌿✨ ✅ I really recommend visiting as soon as it opens in the morning. ✅ The light is soft, so the photos come out much prettier. ✅ It would be good to set aside about 1 hour and 30 minutes to walk around the entire garden. I also looked around the inside of the house, and the simple and bright spaces where Monet actually lived felt so warm and vivid. (Especially the yellow kitchen and blue dining room, they were really lovely.) 💬 Overall Review Fondation Monet in Giverny is not just a simple garden, but a 'living, breathing masterpiece'. The quiet emotion that can only be felt in a quiet morning, this scenery created by flowers, water, and light is something I will never forget. If you have even one day to spare during your trip to France, be sure to plan a morning walk to Giverny. 🌸 #FondationMonet #GivernyMonetGarden #GivernyTravel #FrenchEmotionalTravel #MonetWaterLilyPond #MorningAtGiverny #MonetGardenWalk #MorningWalkRecommendation #FrenchGarden #PrettyGarden #WaterLilyPond #MonetsGarden #DreamyMorning #HealingWalk #FrenchTravelDestination

I stayed here for 2 days and 1 night with my husband. The first thing I felt was... It was really quiet and calm. The atmosphere of the accommodation was so quiet that it was a little awkward to stay with children. 🛏️ Room The room was clean and simple. It had all the basic amenities, such as a small kitchen and refrigerator, so there was no inconvenience, and I was touched that they brought freshly baked bread from this area to my room early in the morning. (See the picture for the bread! It was really warm and delicious.) However, I visited in September and it was much colder than I thought... It was disappointing that the indoor heating was weak and it felt quite chilly. 🌿 Atmosphere The entire hotel is really full of French sensibility. The garden is small but beautifully decorated, and it was impressive with a natural and elegant feel like Monet's garden. There are many good spots for taking pictures, so I think Koreans will especially like it! 📶 Internet I almost gave up on Wi-Fi. They gave me the password, but I can't connect properly. I felt this way after being in France for about a week, but in this country, I think the answer is to just let your mind go and say, "Don't get stressed about the internet." 🗺️ Location It's a little far from the city center, but it's within walking distance, and the surrounding scenery is nice, so it was fun to walk. It's actually a good location for those who want to walk quietly like me. 💬 Overall Review I highly recommend it to those who travel alone or want quiet healing. The accommodation was good value for money, the warm breakfast bread, and the beautiful French-style garden were impressive. However, if you're coming with your parents or looking for a romantic trip with your lover, I think it would be a good idea to consider other accommodations. If I visit France alone again, I definitely want to stay here again. 🌸 #FrenchHotelRecommendation #FrenchStyleHotel #QuietAccommodation #HealingStay #MorningBreadMoving #MonetGardenFeeling #EmotionalAccommodation #FrenchEmotion #FrenchTravelDestination #BeautifulGarden #QuietHotel #HealingTravel #SoloTravelRecommendation #FrenchCountryside #FrenchHealingTravel

I'm sure some people who saw Monet's paintings have wanted to see the gardens and ponds in person. It's a little far from Paris, but if you have the desire to go, it's surprisingly easy to get there 🤍 Take the TER train from Paris' "Saint-Lazare" station to Vernon-Giverny station. From there, just take the bus to Monet's garden! If you have the guts, you can walk for about an hour or rent a bike to get there, and I recommend it as it gives you a different feeling of nature than Paris 🌱𓂃 𓈒𓏸 There were lots of water lilies in bloom in the garden, and it really felt like spring! You could also see Monet's house, and when I looked out the window at the garden, I wondered if Monet painted from here 💭 There were also ukiyo-e paintings on display, and I was moved to see his love for Japan! 🇯🇵 There were no water lilies in the pond...! There seems to be a limited time when you can see the water lilies, so if you really want to see the pond with floating water lilies, check the season👀 It's hard to put into words when I saw the pond exactly as it was in Monet's painting, but I was very moved✨ It seems that you can reach the pond by walking through the garden, so don't go out! (I accidentally left and had to re-enter💦) Other things to note: -You can't enter in the winter, so be sure to check the season when it's open! -There are few buses, and there are no shops around Vernon-Giverny Station where you can kill time without walking a little -There is no place to leave your suitcases, so don't go with a lot of luggage!・You have to line up to buy tickets, so you must buy them in advance🎫 If you keep this in mind, you can enjoy the place smoothly⚠️ It looks like you can go there as a day trip from Paris, so if you're interested, please come🤍 📍Location: 84 Rue Claude Monet, 27620 Giverny, France 💰Price per person: about 2000 yen #0yentrip #Giverny #Monet #Monet'sPond

Giverny is a small village that the Impressionist painter Claude Monet loved and stayed in for a long time.

How about strolling through Giverny under the warm spring sunshine and experiencing the scenery that Monet loved?

Nestled in the Normandy countryside, Giverny is a picturesque village that seems like it was plucked straight from an impressionist painting—because, in many ways, it was. Best known as the home of Claude Monet, the village is a haven for art lovers, nature enthusiasts, and those seeking a peaceful escape from the bustle of Paris. Monet’s House and Gardens: A Living Masterpiece The heart of Giverny is Monet’s House and Gardens, where the legendary artist lived and painted for over 40 years. The gardens, with their vibrant flowerbeds, arched bridges, and serene lily ponds, were the inspiration behind some of Monet’s most famous works, including his Water Lilies series. Walking through these gardens feels like stepping into one of his paintings, with every turn revealing a scene of soft light, blooming wisteria, and tranquil reflections on the water. The Village’s Artistic Legacy Beyond Monet’s estate, Giverny is a charming village with stone cottages, ivy-clad facades, and winding lanes that invite leisurely strolls. It has long been a magnet for artists, and today, visitors can explore the Musée des Impressionnismes, which showcases impressionist works and explores the movement’s influence on modern art. A Perfect Day Trip from Paris Located just 75 km from Paris, Giverny makes for an idyllic day trip. Many visitors pair it with a visit to nearby Vernon, a town known for its medieval timber-framed houses and the Château de Bizy, often called “the little Versailles of Normandy.” Whether you come for the art, the gardens, or the peaceful atmosphere, Giverny is a place where time slows down, allowing you to see the world through Monet’s eyes—full of color, light, and beauty. #europetrip

Like a sparkling pearl nestled in the tranquil countryside, it attracts countless tourists and art lovers eager to explore its beauty and mystery. Stepping into Monet's Garden, the first thing that catches the eye is the dazzling world of flowers. The garden is meticulously divided into several sections, each brimming with life and vitality. Flowers of every color bloom in vibrant competition: fiery reds, rosy pinks, and pure whites. Roses, irises, lilies, and other flowers are artfully arranged along the paths, swaying gently in the breeze as if whispering the garden's stories. These flowers are not only brightly colored but also diverse in form, some budding, others in full bloom, creating a tapestry of colors. Following the path leads to the famous pond. Its surface is like a mirror, reflecting the weeping willows, water lilies, and surrounding flowers and trees. Water lilies float serenely on the water, their pink and white blossoms contrasting with the green lily pads, creating a scene of ethereal beauty. A Japanese-style wooden bridge spans the pond, its rustic elegance harmonizing with the natural surroundings. Standing on the bridge, one can almost sense the tranquility and inspiration that Monet must have felt while painting here.

Strolling through the garden, one can almost envision Monet with his brush in hand, intently capturing the interplay of light and color among the flowers and by the pond. His unique perspective and brushstrokes infused the garden's beauty into his artwork, making Monet's Garden an important symbol of Impressionist art. Beyond the flowers and pond, the garden's architecture also stands out. Monet's house is a white, two-story building with a simple yet elegant exterior. Inside, Monet's paintings, furniture, and personal belongings are displayed, offering glimpses into the life and creative process of this artistic master. The paths and courtyards surrounding the house are also meticulously designed, with every detail reflecting Monet's pursuit of beauty and love of life. Monet's Garden displays different facets with each changing season. In spring, flowers bloom in abundance, filling the garden with fragrance. In summer, lush trees provide shade, and water lilies blossom in the pond, offering a touch of coolness. Autumn paints the garden in golden and fiery hues as the leaves change color. Even in winter, when the flowers have withered, the snowy landscape holds a unique charm. Whenever one visits, the allure of nature and the inspiration of art can be felt. Monet's Garden is more than just a beautiful garden; it is a sanctuary of art, a haven for the soul. Here, visitors can escape the hustle and bustle of the city, immerse themselves in the embrace of nature and art, and experience tranquility and beauty.
