BonJour,
My wife and I are attending the Best of Paris tour from April 12-18th. There is a day trip to Versailles included. Is it possible to take a bus to Giverny from that location? Bonus question... Is it allowed to get lunch to go in the town and eat on the grounds of Versailles? Merci!

Are you trying to visit both in one day using a bus?

"The tour at Versailles ends around 1 pm."
Actually the tour of the Palace probably ends around 1P and then you are set free to visit the gardens, the Grand and Petit Trianons, Marie Antoinette's Hamlet, the Grand Canal, the small little hidden grottos and gardens. When I did this tour I got back to Paris around 6P but you could come back any time you wished.
I would not try to do both of these in a day. Versailles is huge. Monet's house and gardens are large but not as big as Versailles, still I spend nearly a full day there as well.

Thanks so much for the reply. Is it possible to snag a bite somewhere and eat at Versailles?
