About the trip

This four-night escorted tour from Riviera Travel offers a compact but rewarding traverse of Normandy's highlights. Starting with a guided walking tour of Rouen, there's a chance to see its famed cathedral and hear echoes of history alongside visits to local museums and gardens.

The itinerary moves on to Honfleur, a northern French coastal town with a waterfront lined by tall, pastel-colored 18th-century houses. Artists often dot the old harbour, echoing the town's link to Impressionism through Eugene Boudin and Claude Monet. Later, there’s a visit to a traditional cider producer where cider and local cheeses are sampled.

The tour also offers a day around the D-Day beaches, including Gold Beach and the Mulberry Harbour remains at Arromanches. The final day brings a visit to Monet's house and garden at Giverny before returning via Eurostar. It’s a gentle stroll through familiar scenes that have shaped art and history alike.
