Two of Normandy's most beautiful places — one wild and dramatic, the other intimate and artistic — combined in a private day from Le Havre, with a glass of Norman cider in between. First, Etretat. The chalk cliffs are among France's most iconic natural landmarks, with spectacular arches and a needle of rock rising from the sea. Walk the cliff path for breathtaking views that inspired Monet, Courbet, and Guy de Maupassant. Then stop at a local Norman producer to taste traditional cider and calvados. Discover the flavours of Normandy, shaped by centuries of craftsmanship and rolling apple orchards. Finally, Honfleur. Its picturesque old harbour, lined with tall slate-fronted houses, is one of northern France's prettiest settings. Wander the cobbled streets, browse the galleries, or enjoy lunch by the waterfront. Your driver will collect you from the Le Havre cruise terminal, take care of all transportation, and ensure a guaranteed return to your ship.

This is a unique opportunity to spend the morning day visiting Bayeux on a walking tour, and then in the afternoon visit spectacular examples of both German and Allies engineering and planning during WWII. Transport in a comfortable vehicle with driver-guide. We guarantee professionalism, patience, and a “people-first” attitude.

You are already in Normandy. Étretat's spectacular cliffs are just an hour away, with Honfleur and a tasting of authentic Norman cider and calvados along the way. Your private driver collects you from your Deauville hotel for a relaxing day exploring two of Normandy's most iconic destinations, without the stress of driving. First, Étretat. Its dramatic white cliffs, natural arches, and famous sea needle inspired Monet, Courbet, and Maupassant. Walk the cliff paths and admire breathtaking coastal views. Next, stop at a local producer in Normandy's apple country to sample traditional cider, pommeau, and calvados. Continue to Honfleur, one of France's most picturesque harbour towns. Stroll around the Vieux Bassin, admire the slate-fronted houses, browse art galleries, or relax at a waterfront café. This private tour is fully flexible. Your driver handles the route, parking, and timing while you enjoy the day at your own pace before returning to your hotel.

Rouen and Paris have always been connected — by the Seine, by history, by the flow of people and ideas between Normandy's capital and France's. Today the drive takes just over an hour. This private tour picks you up at the Rouen cruise terminal or your hotel and takes you to Paris for the day. The Eiffel Tower. Notre-Dame, newly restored and more beautiful than before. The Louvre's glass pyramid. The Champs-Élysées stretching toward the Arc de Triomphe. Of all the ports in Normandy, Rouen gives you the shortest road to Paris. This tour makes the most of that advantage — more time in the city, less time in the car, and a guaranteed return to the terminal before your ship departs. Your driver handles the route, the parking, and the pace. You handle the priorities. No group, no fixed schedule, no compromises. Upgrade with a licensed Paris guide for expert commentary and a deeper experience at every stop.

Your driver picks you up at the door, takes you through theNormandy countryside, and stays with you all day. You'll visit Pointe du Hoc, where the cliff faces still bear the craters and bunkers of June 6, 1944.

And you'll visit the Normandy American Cemetery, where 9,387 graves look out over the sea. This is not a group tour. There is no fixed pace, no script, no rushing. The day is built around you and your travel companions. Deauville is closer to this history than most visitors expect. This tour makes the most of that.

Rouen and Giverny are connected by the Seine — and by one of the great stories of French art. Joan of Arc was burned at the stake in Rouen in 1431.

This private tour connects both places and both stories in a single bucket list day from Honfleur. In Rouen, your guide walks you through the Gothic cathedral Monet painted 30 times and the square where Joan of Arc died. In Giverny, you step inside the painting — the lily pond, the Japanese bridge, the weeping willows.

Cherbourg sits at the tip of the Cotentin Peninsula — and Mont-Saint-Michel sits at its base. The drive down the coast takes under two hours, passing through some of the quietest and most beautiful countryside in Normandy. This private tour makes that journey easy. Your driver meets you at the cruise terminal, takes you directly to Mont-Saint-Michel, and returns you to the ship before departure — guaranteed. What awaits at the other end is one of the genuine wonders of France. A tidal island fortress, crowned by a Gothic abbey that has stood since the 8th century, surrounded by a bay where the tide arrives faster than almost anywhere else in the world.
