Itinerary

1. Honfleur and Pays d'Auge Tour

   We can't cover the full area of Pays d'Auge but we will customize the tour for you according to your interests. Honfleur is the only place that we can visit all over the year.

   • Meet the tour guide and visit Honfleur. The city of Honfleur is a place not to be missed.
   • You will have the choice to stroll through the small fishing port of Honfleur, where many famous painters such as Turner, Boudin and Monet have succumbed to the charms of the city or some villages (Beuvron-en-Auge, Cambremer) with half-timbered houses and thatched roofs nestled in the valleys with many churches, cemeteries, manors, stud-farms, wash-houses, natural and medical springs where hiking is very pleasant. 
   • You can also experience a typical market with a basket in hand early in the morning to discover authentic Norman products and recipes such as homemade caramel cream, salty or sweet pancakes and artisanal sausages, etc. This tour can be completed either with a visit to a cheese factory or with a brandy distillery, "Calvados", or a cider farm. 
   • Other sites/activities that can be included are: private gardens - local manors - churches ... cemeteries - washhouses - medical springs - stud farms - hiking - local markets - cooking classes - picnics.
   • Next, move to the Pays d'Auge, which also has long sandy beaches and seaside resorts such as Deauville and Trouville, both founded in the 19th century, which developed as a result of the fashion for sea bathing under Napoleon III. It is also the place of worship dedicated to Saint Theresa of Lisieux, which attracts thousands of pilgrims every year. In spring, the vast apple orchards must be seen when their flowers bloom, and the countryside is dotted with half-timbered and thatched-roof houses and farms and secret stud farms, often hidden by a curtain of trees, who raise their yearlings for horse racing.
