The weather was awful but guides worked hard to keep every comfortable. Only negative was when we were departing Versailles the bus had moved and it was very difficult to find it a sign, was hidden behind shadowing on front bus window; we only found it by accident before it pulled away.

Wonderful day. The guide was fantastic, knowledgeable, humorous and spoke English very well. Giverny was the highlight of the day. That is an exceptional trip. Versailles was o.k.

This is really Giverny with a quick tour of Versailles. Our guide was good. The lunch in the Normandy countryside was very nice. The drive to Versailles from Giverny was long, and through old towns on very narrow streets. Our bus got delayed by construction in a small town, and we only had two hours in Versailles. Did not see the fountains or the cottage for Marie Antoinette. Our guide again did a good job of taking us through the palace, but it felt rushed and it was crowded. Overall, we felt tht we did see a good overview of both sites, but the tour was weighted more to Giverny than Versailles.

My daughter and I thought our tour of Giverny was wonderful. The lunch was nice.
Versailles was not so good. The guide walked too fast and the tour of the Palace was so crouded ,that you were so pressed together you could not move. We understood we got there a little late and therefore were in with a very large tour group. We did not see that much inside. Then she gave insturction to go to the gardens. I did ot even get to see them gardens, bcause of the bathroom wait. and time left I thought the guide should have stay with the group after the palace tour. Many people did not know where to go. I would not recomend this part of the tour to anyone
