Morning group meeting in Paris.

Drive to Giverny (approx. 1.5 hours).

Stroll through the artists' village of Giverny.
We’ll begin at the Église Sainte-Radegonde de Giverny, where Claude Monet is buried, and walk through the village, ending at his iconic home and museum — the place where he created his famous Water Lilies series.

Monet’s artistic legacy is often seen as a model of harmony between architecture and painting. But the true harmony exists not only on canvas — it lives in the real world. To truly experience his water lilies, we’ll visit the place he called home: the Normandy village of Giverny.

Lunch stop at Domaine de Primard, the former countryside residence of Catherine Deneuve.
Lunch will be served at Octave, the estate’s elegant restaurant.

Afterward, enjoy a peaceful walk through the estate’s park, or relax in a riverside lounge chair.

Drive to Normandy (approx. 1.5 hours).

Check-in at a villa in the heart of Deauville.

Dinner at La Boucane, a traditional restaurant located within the hotel.

Morning at the villa with breakfast.

Drive to Honfleur (approx. 20 minutes).

Walking tour from the hotel to La Chapelle Notre-Dame de Grâce (17th century).
The chapel’s interior is adorned with paintings, and it features an outdoor carillon of 23 bells that chimes every hour. From here, enjoy a stunning panoramic view of the English Channel.

We’ll walk down into the heart of Honfleur and visit the Musée Eugène Boudin, dedicated to the forerunners of Impressionism.

Next, we’ll stop by the Maison Satie, the whimsical childhood home of composer Erik Satie, followed by a visit to the 15th-century wooden church Église Sainte-Catherine, one of the oldest and most unique churches in France.
We’ll then stroll to the port and browse contemporary art galleries, such as Galerie Danielle Bourdette Gorzkowski — perhaps you’ll discover and take home a work by a modern artist.

Drive to Trouville for a walk through the old town.

Lunch at the fish market in Trouville — fresh seafood and wine.
Before choosing a table, we’ll stop by the bakery across the street for a warm baguette. We’ll order seasonal seafood and request sashimi made from fresh wild fish.

Dessert awaits in Deauville.

We’ll take a walk through Deauville, stopping by the very first Chanel boutique, tucked between the Hôtel Normandy and the Casino de Deauville.

Stroll along Plage de Deauville, home to the famous American Film Festival.

We’ll toast with a glass of champagne on the beach at Le Bar du Soleil, just like Clark Gable once did.

By car, we’ll visit the Deauville Hippodrome and the former family home of Gustave Flaubert — Villa Strassburger.

Dinner in Deauville at the elegant Le Comptoir et la Table restaurant.

In the morning, we’ll drive to Honfleur and stop by the local bakery Saquana for a fresh start to the day.

Then we’ll head to Étretat to visit the stunning Les Jardins d'Étretat — sculpted gardens overlooking the iconic white cliffs.

After a scenic walk along the cliffs, we’ll enjoy lunch at Le Bel Ami, a charming traditional restaurant and wine bar.

After lunch, we may stop for a glass of champagne nearby.

Next, we’ll drive to the Phare d’Antifer lighthouse and take a walk along the dramatic cliffs of Étretat — a unique chance to explore a protected natural reserve. We’ll bring along champagne and glasses to toast the view.

Return to the villa for rest and time to get ready for the evening.

Dinner will be served at the gourmet hotel restaurant Les Impressionnistes.

Breakfast at the villa.

Drive to Villerville.
Normandy is full of hidden villages that tourists rarely visit — and that’s exactly where France’s most authentic charm lives on. Villerville is one of those rare places.

Guy de Maupassant once found inspiration here, watching the waves of the English Channel. In 1962, Belmondo and Gabin filmed A Monkey in Winter in this village. Years later, Nicolas Sarkozy and Carla Bruni first met here, at Villa Le Petit Manoir.

We’ll take a walk down to Plage de Villerville, in search of the mural of Belmondo and Gabin, a tribute to the film’s legacy.

Stroll along the Corniche and return to the car through the village streets.
Drive to Cabourg, with a stop in Beuvron-en-Auge, officially listed among the most beautiful villages in France.

Oyster lunch at Le Perle Disigny, a family-run seafood shop.

Then we’ll take a walk through Cabourg and along the Plage de Houlgate.

We’ll visit the Falaises des Vaches Noires, a protected natural site known for its dramatic cliffs and fossil-rich terrain.

Return to the villa to rest.

Dinner in Deauville.

Breakfast at the villa.

Leisure time, packing, and check-out.

Visit and tasting at a Calvados producer in Pont-l’Évêque.
We’ll head to Maison Drouin, one of the oldest family-run distilleries in Normandy.
In his novel The Arch of Triumph, Erich Maria Remarque gives Calvados an almost mythical aura — a golden treasury where precious memories are sealed, patiently waiting to be brought to light, only to return to them again and again.

The Drouin estate is nestled in Pont-l’Évêque, also known as the birthplace of the famous cheese of the same name.

After the Calvados tasting, we’ll visit Earl Spruytte, a local cheese producer, for a glimpse into Normandy’s artisanal dairy heritage.

Optional (subject to confirmation and additional cost): Attend a polo match at the Deauville Equestrian Club.

Return to Paris.
