The Ultimate Normandy Vacation
Five days from Paris to Mont Saint-Michel, the D-Day beaches, centuries-old Bayeux, medieval Rouen and Monet’s gardens at Giverny. Taste Calvados and Camembert at the source. You sleep four nights at one spa hotel outside Bayeux, with a private guide and transfers throughout.
Full Itinerary
Day 1 — Mont Saint-Michel
From Paris, your guide drives you to Mont Saint-Michel for the first part of your Normandy adventure. In 708, Bishop Aubert of Avranches, guided by a vision of Saint Michael, built a sanctuary on the rock amid the tides of the bay. The Benedictine abbey followed in 966, and the building went on for centuries. Your guide shows you the abbey and the village below. Lunch is planned at the legendary Mère Poulard, or a nearby restaurant with views of the Mont.
Check in for four nights at the 4-star Château Saint-Gilles outside Bayeux. The spa hotel sits amid farmland, with on-site treatments, a working vegetable garden, a chicken coop, a beehive and an orchard. The hotel restaurant serves seven days a week, with ingredients from the grounds and local producers.
Day 2 — The American June 6 Story
Your immersion into the D-Day invasion begins with a drive to Sainte-Mère-Église. The “longest day” started with pre-dawn parachute drops in and around this town. From there, you will see Utah Beach and Omaha Beach. A special stop near Utah Beach is a humble café where, over the decades, the men and women who landed on D-Day have signed the walls. Bring your camera. Lunch is suggested at La Trinquette on the coast, or a comparable restaurant.
The afternoon brings you to Arromanches Harbor and Pointe du Hoc, finishing at the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, timed for the flag-lowering ceremony. If you have a family connection to the battle, let us know — your guide will highlight it.
Day 3 — Bayeux
Morning historical walking tour of Bayeux, then inland to Pont-l’Évêque and Cormeilles for Calvados — Normandy’s famous apple brandy.
Lunch at Crêperie Bar Mont Mirel. Crêpes were born in Brittany and Normandy before Paris adopted them. Eat them at the source.
Then on to the Busnel tasting room, a 200-year-old Calvados distillery in the Pays d’Auge countryside. Finish with a visit to an AOC Camembert dairy farm just outside the village of Camembert itself. (Neufchâtel or Pont-l’Évêque can be substituted.)
This day can be adjusted to your tastes. We can shorten it so you can enjoy a spa treatment or farm experience at your hotel.
Dinner suggestions for each night: Michelin-listed La Rapière, La Pommiere, or the restaurant at your hotel.
Day 4 — Rouen
Morning drive to Rouen for a walking tour of the medieval quarter. See the cathedral — famously painted over and over by Monet — and learn the story of Joan of Arc, the teenage girl who inspired the French to defeat the English during the Hundred Years’ War and was burned at the stake here in 1431.
Lunch at Brasserie Paul, a local institution since 1898.
Afternoon tour of the Musée des Beaux-Arts, featuring 15th-century masters and Monet’s cathedral paintings. Return to your Bayeux hotel.
Day 5 — Giverny and Paris
Drive to Giverny and tour the house and gardens of Claude Monet. He was a celebrated Parisian artist when he left for the countryside and turned his home into a paradise of gardens and exuberant color. Lunch at Le Jardin des Plumes, right next to the gardens — an acclaimed Normandy chef elevating rustic cuisine in a gorgeous setting.
Afternoon drive to Paris and a visit to the Musée de la Libération, dedicated to the Resistance and life under the Nazi occupation. The Musée d’Orsay or Louvre can be substituted. Drop-off at your Paris hotel.
Evening on your own in Paris.
Airport Transfer on Request
A private transfer from your Paris hotel to CDG or Orly can be added for the morning after the tour, or after a few days in Paris. Ask us when you book.
