Pickup at Orly Airport (ORY) — meet-and-greet with a name sign at the exit
A direct transfer from Orly Airport to Giverny, in the heart of the Seine Valley, for easy access to Claude Monet’s house and gardens or your local accommodation.
The transfer from Paris-Orly Airport to Giverny connects the southern suburbs of Paris with a town in Eure known for Claude Monet’s house and gardens. The road distance is about 87 kilometers. In light traffic, the trip can take a little over an hour, but it’s best to allow more time depending on your arrival time, traffic around Orly, and conditions on the main roads in the Paris region.
For travelers landing at Orly before visiting Giverny, a direct trip avoids crossing Paris with luggage and making multiple connections. The route gradually leaves the Orly area, skirts the most urbanized parts of the Île-de-France region, and continues west toward the Seine Valley. A typical route joins the A13 before approaching Vernon and Giverny on local roads.
Paris-Orly Airport is organized into the Orly 1, Orly 2, Orly 3, and Orly 4 areas. Your arrival terminal depends on your flight and airline. After landing, you’ll generally need to allow time to disembark, go through any required document checks, collect your luggage, and exit to the public area. These steps can take more or less time depending on where your flight originated and how busy the airport is.
To help arrange your pickup, provide your flight number, the terminal or arrival area listed by the airport, and a phone number where you can be reached after landing. Orly’s arrival halls are spread across multiple locations, rather than one central meeting point, so specifying your arrival area helps avoid unnecessary walking through the terminal. If your flight is delayed or changed, it’s also helpful to check the latest information from your airline and Paris Aéroport.
Travel time between Orly and Giverny depends heavily on the time of day. Roads around the airport, the Île-de-France ring roads, and routes to western Paris can slow the journey during busy periods. Traffic can also vary on spring weekends, public holidays, and peak travel days.
If you plan to visit Monet’s gardens the same day, avoid scheduling your arrival in Giverny too close to your entry time. Allow extra time for disembarking, airport formalities, traffic, and finding your way when you arrive. This is especially useful during the blooming season, when visitor numbers are higher.
Giverny is a village in Eure near Vernon, set in the Seine Valley. Claude Monet’s house and gardens are at 84, rue Claude Monet, in Giverny. The site includes the painter’s house, the Clos Normand garden, and the water garden, which are among the village’s main attractions.
The gardens are open seasonally, and visiting conditions may change from year to year. Before you leave, check the official calendar, ticketing information, and any guidance about luggage. The Claude Monet Foundation notes that there is no luggage storage and that large bags are not allowed on the premises. If you’re arriving directly from the airport, check this before choosing Giverny as your first stop.
An Orly–Giverny transfer can also suit travelers staying at a hotel, bed and breakfast, or other accommodation in Giverny, Vernon, or nearby villages. In that case, provide the full address so the drop-off can be arranged at your accommodation, rather than at Monet’s gardens, in the village center, or near Vernon–Giverny station.
Our estimates take distance and travel time, including traffic, into account. The final fare is confirmed in the booking form.
Giverny is best known as the home of Claude Monet, who lived and worked there for several decades. The town retains a strong connection to painting, gardening, and the landscapes of the Seine Valley. Visiting the house and gardens offers a glimpse into both the artist’s home life and the surroundings that inspired several of his series devoted to flowers, reflections, and water.
But there’s more to the village than Monet’s home. Visitors can round out their visit with a stroll through Giverny’s streets, a stop at one of the village’s establishments, or a cultural visit exploring Impressionism. Also located in the town, the Musée des Impressionnismes Giverny offers exhibitions and programs about artists, movements, and the links between Impressionism and contemporary art. Check directly with the venues for current exhibitions and visitor information.
Giverny is close to Vernon, a convenient base for planning a stay in this part of Normandy. Vernon has a historic center, quays along the Seine, and architectural heritage that can extend your visit beyond the gardens. The two towns are often combined in tourist itineraries, but they are separate stops: an address in Vernon is not necessarily close to Monet’s house.
The Seine Valley also gives the destination a distinctive landscape. Local roads pass through villages, hillsides, and agricultural plains, offering a different atmosphere from the Paris metropolitan area. For a stay of several days, Giverny can serve as a base for exploring the area around Vernon, the Norman Vexin, and some of the Eure’s heritage sites.
The Monet gardens are open seasonally and tend to be busier in spring and during pleasant weather. The Claude Monet Foundation recommends buying tickets online, especially when demand is high. Before leaving Orly, check your chosen date, any time slot shown on your ticket, and the visitor access rules.
Much of the gardens are explored on foot, so comfortable shoes are a good choice, especially if your day also includes Giverny’s center or a walk in Vernon. Visitors with reduced mobility can check the official accessibility information: the gardens are listed as accessible, while the house has specific access limitations.
If you’re arriving from Paris-Orly, Giverny is a particularly appealing destination if you’d like to begin your stay with culture and scenery rather than in central Paris. The town offers direct access to Monet’s world, and you can continue on to Vernon, Rouen, Normandy, or Paris, depending on the rest of your trip.

KENZA from Casablanca. I used Booking Paris Transfer during my last stay in Paris for a day of shopping and then for my airport transfer. I highly recommend them to any visitor. The Mercedes van is extremely comfortable, and the driver is very friendly and exceptionally helpful. He will put you at ease and listen to all your requests. Plus, the prices are very reasonable. On my last day, I used them for my airport transfer. The driver accompanied me to check-in and helped me with my luggage. He also helped me with my tax refund paperwork. TRULY EXCEPTIONALLY HELPFUL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOOKING PARIS TRANSFER!
