Your guide shares stories of Honfleur’s maritime past and the painters who made its changing light famous.

Continue into the Pays d’Auge countryside, known for apple orchards, green pastures and timber‑framed farmhouses. In Beuvron‑en‑Auge, one of France’s “most beautiful villages,” wander among half‑timbered façades, flower‑lined streets and traditional shops selling local specialties. This is the perfect setting for photos, a relaxed lunch or a coffee on a charming village square.
Visit a Calvados Estate and Enjoy a Tasting
In the afternoon, visit a local Calvados estate to discover how Normandy’s apples become cider and then Calvados. Tour the orchards or cellars, see the stills and oak barrels, and learn how apple varieties, distillation and aging shape the character of each spirit.
