Day 1: Paris - Rouen - Honfleur - Beaches of Normandy - Caen
We'll board a luxury coach at the indicated time at Avenue de la Suffren 22 in central Paris and relax while you take a 2-hour drive to Rouen, capital of Normandy. During the guided visit of Rouen, you'll explore its medieval city centre. The guide will stop in front of the famous Gros Horloge, a stunning astronomical clock, which used to ring when there were street revolts. You’ll also step inside the Gothic-style Cathedral, one of the country’s most impressive religious edifices. Continue the journey to the Port of Honfleur, where you’ll have time to discover the city at your own pace and have lunch in one of its numerous restaurants.
In the afternoon, you’ll head to the Beaches of Normandy, the site of the D-Day landing in 1944. Your guide will give you interesting facts and figures about World War II before you depart for Caen, a pretty port city where you'll spend the night and enjoy a tasty meal with the rest of your group.
