Monet's Garden at Giverny

Updated · BootsnAll

Monet's Garden is located in Giverny, France - about fifty miles west of Paris in the Eure Department in Normandy. Although there is no train service that goes directly to Giverny village, train service is available from Gare St. Lazare in Paris to Vernon. Take the Rouen-bound train and get off at Vernon. The train trip takes 45 minutes. Be sure to allow ample time for the rest of your trip between Vernon and Giverny which is approximately four miles from Vernon. At Vernon, you can either take a local bus, rent a bicycle (Cafe du Chemin de Fer), hire a taxi - or walk. If you decide to walk or bike, bring along a picnic to enjoy along the way. >> Find detailed information about getting from Paris to Monet's Garden, including by train, bus, and car. Local Bus Service Info A shuttle bus meets the trains at Vernon-Giverny station and runs the few kilometres to Giverny. Check the current operator and timetable before you travel - it is seasonal, and it has changed hands more than once. Museum Open Hours The gardens are closed on Mondays with the exception of Mondays that fall on certain bank holidays. The gardens are closed during the winter months November 1st to March 31st. Admission There is one ticket covering the house and the gardens, with reduced rates for students and children and free entry for the youngest. Booking a timed slot online is worth it: Giverny is small, coach parties arrive through the morning, and the queue at the gate can be long. Current prices and slots are on the Fondation's own site.
