In Getting To Giverny

Getting to Giverny – Vernon : Getting back and forth to Giverney from Paris is not easy. If this is you first time in Paris, it will feel almost impossible. But I have done it and found out the pitfalls and problems for you. Here are some ideas to make it easy for you to enjoy where Monet painted his famous Waterlilies. 

First, go to St.Lazare Train Station and get the ticket directly from TER. The website is okay to reference, but even the concierge at the hotel is stayed at on my layover was confused on how to use it. It is open 7Am to 9pm and the people are very friendly.

If you want to get tickets on the internet, go to  SNCF Connect – Résultats d’itinéraires aller (sncf-connect.com). It’s easiest to pick on SNFC “Vernon” only and filtering with “direct”. Otherwise you will get a very complicated route and pay more than you have to. 

Once in the town of Vernon, there are several ways to get to Giverny. There is the Shuttle, a taxi, or a “train” which goes on the road, or you can walk. Each has their good pints and bad. Here is what I have found.

If you take the Vernon-Giverny shuttle for 5 Euros, the easiest way, get ready to wait in a line. Even so, they time their shuttle schedule to th train so you don’t have to wait. They also seem to have the correct amount of buses for the people that are waiting to. The Shuttle does have a schedule which really helps with planning. The travel time is 15 to 20 minutes.

Schedule for the Shutter to Giverny

The walk from the station to Giverny is long, 5.1 km or 3.2. They say it could take up to a hour. The path is paved so on a nice day with time to spare, it could be an option. The estimated time of travel is 1 hour and 15 minutes. 

There are taxis you can take to and from Giverny for 16 Euro for up to 4 people. This is good if you are trying to get back to Vernon to make your train and you miss the shuttle and the one won’t get you there on time. And if you have 4 people in your party, it’s actually cheaper to use the taxi instead of the shuttle. So this option could be more convenient and cheaper than the bus. Just remember it might be a while to get a cab when it is busy.

Once they drop you off, you have a short walk to the estate, but it can be very confusing. If you have time to spare, you can go the bust of Monet and enjoy the scenery. If you what to want to beat the crowds, follow the signs that say “Access to the Village”. Walk along the road until see the sign that says Sente Leroy.

If you have group tickets, take a left up Sente Leroy then take the first right. If you need tickets, take a left on Sente Leroy and continue until you see the main thoroughfare and take a right. If you got tickets online, which I highly suggest, turn left on Sente Leroy then the second right.

Where to enter if you have purchased tickets in advance.

Getting to Giverny from Paris and back can be a challenge if you haven’t done it before. If you follow these suggestions, it will be much easier and your visit to Monet’s house will be even more enjoyable.

Transportation

Airport

RER-B (Blue Line) Terminal 2, 30E) to Chatelee to 1

Week Pass

Navigo Découverte Pass – best deal for getting around Paris. 30 Euro from Monday to 11:59pm Sunday. Normally 2 euro a ticket for 90 minutes. 15 trips on the Metro for the week pays for it .
We arriVed Monday morning at CGV, got the pass and used it to travel on the RER to our place in Montmontre. That ride would have been 12 Euro, then used it the rest of the day, so we had paid 18 Euro to ride the Metro for the week. If you took the RER back to cgv on Sunday, you would have paid 6 Euro to use the Metro for that whole week.
Great deal to get around Paris, but need a map like this https://parisbytrain.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/paris-metro-map-2021.pdf and to read other posts I made. Refill for the day 8.45.

Touring Around the Island of Aegina

Touring around the Island of Aegina is a daunting task. There is so much to do, you need more than a day to see it all. And you will need a Scouter or a car as I posted here. But if you want to just come for the day, here is the list of things to do. So read on, research to find what interests you, then go out and explore!

Map of the Island of Aegina

The Temple of Aphaia. The Temple of Aphaia was built around 500 BC pre-dating the Acropolis in Athens by almost 100 years. It pays homage to local Goddess Aphaia, goddess of fertility. She came to be identified with the goddesses Athena and Artemis as part of their origin story.

Agios Nektarios Monistary. This is one of the most visited sites on Aegina. Saint Nectarios is one of the most widely known Greek Orthodox Saints known for his miracles of curing diseases. For this reason, thousands come from around the world to visit his tomb and pray for a blessing to cure their ailments. Besides that, it is just a beautiful place to visit.

The Musee Christi’s Kapralos. Christi Kapralos is known as one of Greece’s greatest representatives of Modernism. His work is based on normal Greek life in peace and war, which he lived through. The art on display is from 1963 to 1993 and was created on the Island. Make sure to see a copy of the frieze called “The Monument of the Pindos Battle”, inspired by the Greek revolution against the Germans. The actual frieze is in the halls of the Greek Parliament.

Archaeological Museum of Aegina. This is the first National Museum of Greece and was founded on 21 October 1829 by Ioannis Kapodistrias in Aegina, which at that time was the capital of the Greece. It features art from the Prehistoric to Roman times including artifacts from Kolona, the Temple of Aphaia, the Temple of Ellanios Zeus, the Temple of Artemis, and the Temple of Apollo

Archaeological Site of Kolona. This is the former religious and political center of the island dated back to 3000 BC. the archaic temple of Apollo and according to island lore says Venetian sailors used for orientation. Excavations shows many gods worshiped here, from Apollo to Poseidon, going back to prehistoric times.

Moni Island Beach . An inhabited island and nature reserve, a great place to go to enjoy the wildlife. Getting to the secluded island just off the shore, takes a shuttle in the summer. Once there, enjoy the friendly animals, the lovely landscape, and the clear waters.

The Island of Aegina

In the Aegina Sea, a short ferry ride from Athens, is the Island of Aegina. It is a great day trip if you are island hopping, or a great place to spend a few days exploring. Either way, it is a great spot which you can make the most, or as little as you want.

Approaching the Island of Aegina

Getting there takes between 45 minutes to an hour and twenty minutes from Athens. It’s a very easy trip and you can see my post on island hopping if you need the details. If you want to go to see the sights, take the first high speed ferry. .There is almost too much to see in a day.

The port town of Aegina is very relaxing. This is the perfect place to go to decompress and just watch the ship enter and leave the harbor. The water front is great place to explore. It has a lot of history from the Aegina Cathedral to the Vogiatzis Mansion.

The Island has any sites to see outside the port town. The Temple of Aphaia, the Agios Nektarios Monistary, and the Tower of Markell’s to name a few. For those looking for the history of the area, there is the Musee Christi’s Capralos, the Archaeological Museum of Aegina, and the Archaeological Site of Kolona. There is even Moni Island Beach for sunbathers.

If you want to sightsee the whole island, there are many places to get vehicles Leonardou Lara, a street right off the harbor. The rental place are reasonable. A two person moped is more reasonable than single, and more reasonable than the car if 2 people. If there are 3 people in your group, it is better to get the car. You will need a vehicle to see all the sights on the island. One last tip. If it is slow, you might be able to bargain with them.

Aegina is great to visit for the day, or to spend a few days to soak in the history. Either way you will enjoy the Island of Aegina.

Go Island hopping in Athens

Just because you’re in Athens doesn’t mean you have only tour the city. Athens is not only close to other islands with great history, it has great transportation system to take you there. Read on to learn how to go island hopping in Athens.

The first step is to get to the port to take the ferry which is at Piraeus. The fastest and cheapest way I found is to to take the metro to Piraeus, Green Line, or line 1.

The best way to use the Metro is to buy the 90 minute ticket. Less than half the all day. With how FAA the Metro in Greece is, you can get anywhere in less than 90 minutes. It is much more reasonable to get two 90 minute than getting all day.

The Piraeus Train Station

When you get to Piraeus, walk out of the train station and right to the pier. The ferry system is very easy to use and gives you 2 choices, fast and slow.

The fast choice is the high speed boat. On a trip to Aegina, it’s twice as fast but it comes at a price. It’s a little over 60% more than the slower boat. This is a great option if you want to squeeze a lot of touring into your visit.

The Port of Piraeus

The other option is the slower boat which is half as fast but cheaper. On a trip to Aegina, it will take 1 hour and 20 minutes as opposed to 45 minutes. This is a good option for larger families or those on a budget.

Both ships have great interiors that are very clean and comfortable. There is clean bathrooms available which is great if you want to change into or out of your island wear. There is even a cafe if you need a snack.

Even though Athens is a great city with plenty of attractions to see, it is also a great base camp for day trips. The Metro and ferry system make it to explore more of Greece. So what are you waiting for, go island hopping in Athens!

Raj of Kensington

Just off High Street in the Kensington area of London is a great little Restaurant. This is the place to find the most reasonable priced Indian food and one of the cheapest places to eat in London. It’s Raj of Kensington.

The establishment is well decorated and is great for a night out in London. But the prices are extremely reasonable. My main course was 11.95 Pounds, rice was 3.75, and drink 3.95. For under 20 pounds you can have a meal and not be hungry afterwards.

The story of Raj is interesting as well. ‘The British Raj (Raj meaning “rule” in Hindi) was the rule of Great Britain in the Indian Subcontinent between 1858 and 1947, predominantly under Queen Victoria – Empress of India. The British Raj encompassed almost all present-day India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. The Raj may have ended many years ago, but The British East India Company ensured that the best of India was introduced to the UK and love for Indian cuisine ensued!“

Great Place for a Nice Evening

The meals themselves come with their own story like “served on a train from Bombay to Calcutta. I had that and thoroughly enjoyed it. My companion had the more expensive salmon for 16.95 and said it was delicious. For those who want a full dinner, there is a fixed menu of an appetizer, first course,

1 Ambington Road, just off High Street

The service is very warm and professional which puts it on the top of my list. And if you have a short layover, they deliver too. Either way, Raj of Kensington is a great deal for airline crews.
