Great video! I highly recommend the choice of the train from Paris to staying in Bayeux. You can rent a car in Bayeux And drive all over the Peninsula. We visited every World War II site there was. Went to Mont Saint Michele As well. From Bayeux You can drive in any direction and be very close and not spend so much time traveling from place to place. It is more centralized.

Great info. I'll be in Normandy next month to observe the 81st anniversary of D Day. A dream since childhood.

Bonjour, belle video merci pour votre intérêt sur la Normandie, je lis que vous conseiller à certaines personnes ici de visiter la Normandie en un week-end . ?
Pardon mais juste pour vous dire que cela n’est largement pas assez !
Tellement de choses ici, les places l’arrière pays, les villes les villages …

Normally most restaurants serve the bottle to the table in France. Another gem altough way smaller is La Roche-Guyon, close to Monet's garden in Giverny. Been there with my wife and stayed a couple of nights in a magnificient art deco house from the 20s, beautiful castle nearby with a beautiful view on La Seine. Incredible memory, wish I could come back this year if possible ! Great video bringing back some memories, thank you !

I was in Normandy in June. I really want to go back to France. I got sick my 2nd day in Paris, so I feel like I missed out. The Caen museum was amazing. You walk in, and that Spitfire aiming right at you would make any veteran jump. Part of the Caen Museum is a bunker Hitler had made for himself. One funny experience I did have in Caen was actually the only rude person that gave me any sort of problem. I was at the train station heading to Paris. He said "You Americans...you bring your war here, and we do not want any part of it!" I laughed at him, and said "Parlez-vous Allemonde? Non. Je sais. Albitezein (Do you speak German? No I know. Goodbye (in German). Told that story to a local in Paris later that day, and he said "Thank you very much for insulting that STUPID man!" I am just debating how to go again. I enjoyed driving, but when I go to Paris again, I would like to not rent a car, as it is a big expense.

Super helpful for my upcoming trip. Thank you. How many days would you recommend for Normandy if we had more time?

[Lessgobois]

Are places or restaurants still open at night or most of them close early? Thanks for the info.

The new church in the Place du Vieux Marché, in Rouen, is a monstruosity .

[RatAndRaven]

Belfry is pronounced bell-free, for future reference.. Awesome video regardless!

What if I’m a student and can’t get a car I want to go to Omaha

The cities of Caen, Le Havre, Saint-Malo and others were completely destroyed by the Allieds, was it really necessary ?
