Marvel at the Medieval Landmarks of Rouen
- The tour begins in front of the Rouen Cathedral, which is world-famous thanks to a series of paintings by the French Impressionist Painter Claude Monet.

- Travellers will roam around Old Rouen and walk down its medieval streets to admire the very well-preserved timbered-framed houses. The tour also makes its way to the Big Clock, which is the biggest symbol of the town.
- On the way to the covered market- the Old Market Square, where Joan of Arc was burnt in 1431 and where the very modern church dedicated to her exists- visitors pass in front of the Renaissance splendour of the Palace of Justice.
