More Than a Driver — Your Personal Guide
When you book a private driver to Giverny, you get a dedicated English-speaking professional who knows the region intimately.
Meet & Greet
Your driver meets you at your Paris hotel lobby, airport arrivals, or train station with a name sign. No searching for transport — your chauffeur comes to you.
Local Expertise
Your driver shares insights about Monet's life, recommends the best photo spots in the gardens, and suggests hidden gems in the village of Giverny.
Dedicated to You
Unlike shared tours or taxis, your private driver is exclusively yours for the entire journey. Stop for photos, extend your visit, or add a detour — it's your day.
Your Private Driver Experience

Your driver arrives at your accommodation 10 minutes early. Luggage handled, water bottles provided.
Depart Paris
Relax in a premium sedan or minivan as you leave Paris via the A13 motorway towards Normandy.
Scenic Arrival in Giverny
Your driver takes the scenic route through the Seine valley. Arrive at Monet's Garden before the crowds.
Your Driver Waits
While you explore the gardens, water lilies, and Monet's house, your driver parks nearby and remains available by phone.
Village Exploration
After the gardens, your driver suggests nearby attractions: Musée des Impressionnismes, the church, or a riverside walk.

Your driver recommends a local restaurant — perhaps the historic Hôtel Baudy where Monet's artist friends once gathered.
Return to Paris
When you're ready, your driver takes you back to Paris — to your hotel, a restaurant, or any other address.

What Travellers Say About Their Driver
"Our driver was incredibly knowledgeable about Giverny and Monet's history. He recommended the best time to visit the water garden and even suggested a lovely lunch spot. It felt like having a personal guide, not just a driver."
Sarah M.

"We've done the train to Vernon before — never again. Having a private driver who speaks English, meets you at the hotel, and waits while you explore is worth every euro. Our driver even took us to Château Gaillard on the way back!"
James & Lisa T.

"As a solo female traveller, I felt completely safe with my driver. He was professional, punctual, and his English was excellent. He waited patiently while I spent 3 hours painting in the gardens. Highly recommend."
