Step by step

Paris Normandy

Giverny & Honfleur

  • We plan for you to arrive in CDG airport and pick up the rental car there. 
  • You will drive for about 1 hour to get to Monet's house and garden in Giverny. You will explore the site with cut-the-line tickets. 
  • In the afternoon, drive a 1hr30 more and reach the seaside. Honfleur is a very typical half-timbered port where you will recover from jetlag for 2 nights and enjoy the Norman countryside. 
  • From Rouen cathedral to Etretat Cliffs, from the Pays d'Auge cheeses to its apple ciders : you'll get a great introduction to eastern Normandy. 

 

Bayeux area 

  • On the 3rd day, drive about 1hr30 to reach Bayeux area. 
  • For 2 nights you will experience the Norman tranquility in an 11th-century manor. Immerse yourself in a medieval environment while enjoying all the modern amenities, as well as amazing breakfasts cooked by your lovely hostess.
  • Perfectly located between Bayeux and the WWII beaches, you will get a real feel for Norman history, from William the Conqueror to the Second World War. 
  • We also plan for you to spend a morning with a private guide who will customize the itinerary to your wishes and interests as you visit the WWII beaches and memorial sites.
Paris Normandy

Ah...Paris

  • For the last 3 nights of your trip, you will be living the Parisian life. Comfortably accommodated in a charming 4* boutique-hotel in the heart of the Latin Quarter, in the Sorbonne area, you will discover the French capital city’s must sees and hidden beauties.
  • Being based a 10 minute walk from Notre Dame Cathedral, you can explore Paris by foot, by boat or using public transportation with unique and different itineraries we have prepared for you. One night, you will attend a very fun show (in English) . . . a good opportunity to enjoy Paris nightlife.
