Day 1
Paris → Giverny → Rouen
Begin at Claude Monet’s house and gardens in Giverny, then continue to Rouen for the cathedral, medieval streets and an evening in the historic centre.
Suggested route
Day by day
This is a starting point, not a fixed group tour. Hotel choices, visits, restaurant times and daily departures are adjusted around your priorities.
Day 2
Rouen → Étretat → Honfleur
Follow the Seine-Maritime coast to Étretat’s white cliffs and sea arches. Continue to Honfleur for its harbour, galleries and relaxed waterfront atmosphere.
Day 3
Honfleur → Deauville → Bayeux
Spend the morning between Honfleur and elegant Deauville, then cross the Norman countryside toward Bayeux. Add a Calvados or cheese stop when it fits your interests.
Day 4
Omaha Beach & D-Day coast
A full day around Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery and selected landing sites. A licensed specialist guide can join the day when historical depth is a priority.
Day 5
Bayeux → Mont-Saint-Michel
Travel west to Mont-Saint-Michel and allow enough time to experience the abbey, lanes and changing views across the bay without rushing.
Day 6
Cancale → Saint-Malo
Continue to Cancale for oysters by the bay, then reach Saint-Malo for its ramparts, old town and Atlantic evening light.
Day 7
Saint-Malo → Paris or onward
Return comfortably to Paris, connect with Rennes station, or continue into Brittany. The final day is adapted to your departure plans.
Shorter version: For a 5-day version, combine Honfleur and Deauville, then visit Cancale and Saint-Malo on the same day after Mont-Saint-Michel.
