  Although Mt Saint Michel is not part of this
5 night/6-day tour itinerary
  it may be included, by prior arrangement.

  It will replace the Giverny trip

  It is too far to go, sensibly tour the Mt and return in a day.
  So we stay overnight.

  There is, therefore, a night stop-over supplement.

Why not, have the full itinerary plus Mt St Michel
  by adding an extra day.

 

    2-3-4 Day Tours & D-Day Tours

Day Tours are also available according to your needs. Let us know how many days (including days travelling to and from Normandy) and we will organise an itinerary and give you a costing.

Tours from Le Havre, a favourite port of call for cruise ships, to the D-Day Beaches are also organised according to availability.
And now that Honfleur is becoming more popular for cruise ships we also offer the same D-Day tour service
For details of the tours Le Havre to D-Day Beaches and the tours Honfleur to D-Day Beaches please click on 'Normandy Beach Boys'

Try a tour to Monet's Gardens at Giverny.

    Day Trips from England?

One has to be realistic: 'Don't even think about it'. It's a long way and all your time will be taken in travelling. Unless you can fly, there is no other suitable way.
Save Normandy for another time. Come back again and see Normandy properly and at a leisurely pace with Normandy Safaris.

If you can manage only a few days, take a look at WW2 - War Week 2 Days (+ 1 day of Peace)
