Travel in style aboard our luxury minibus with one of our expert English-speaking guides, as we take you from the bustling city of Paris to the idyllic countryside of Normandy. You will have the unique opportunity to visit the precious collection of Japanese engravings, displayed in several rooms of Monet's colorful home, hung in the marmer chosen by the Master himself. The Claude Monet Foundation, inaugurated in 1980 has gone through large scale restoration work, and now the huge Nymphéas Studio, a stone's throw from the house, has also been restored and contains the Foundation’s Shop.
