1.Normandy D-Day Sites & Cemetery Day Trip from Paris with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6,877 reviews · 14 hours (approx.) · from $120Our pick

Leave Paris by air-conditioned coach with an English-speaking guide such as Maja, John, or Raymond, and spend a full day at Normandy’s key D-Day sites. Visit the Utah Beach Museum, walk Pointe du Hoc, pause at Omaha Beach, and pay respects at the American Cemetery. A two-course lunch and Norman cider are included.

“I took this tour recently with my extended family, to include my 3 minor children and my retired career Army infantryman husband. The historical sites were great and it was clear our guide cared about the things that happened there. We loved what we saw and were glad to share that experience with our children. The only negative occurred when we stopped for lunch. Unfortunately it was a big negative and we did need to mention it. When we arrived at the pre-booked and pre-ordered restaurant the only table that could accommodate my family (we were told very rudely by staff) we could not use. We tried to split up…”

2.Day Trip to Mont-Saint-Michel from Paris

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,876 reviews · 14 hours · from $153

Travel from Paris to Normandy by air-conditioned coach, then explore Mont-Saint-Michel and its Gothic abbey. Choose a live guide, app-based audioguide, or self-guided visit. Expect a long day, steep steps, sweeping bay views, a midway rest stop, and roughly three to four hours on the island.

“Overall, the tour guide was good in terms of information and organization. However, I felt uncomfortable on the way back to Paris when he asked everyone to sit in their seats, as his tone was loud and not very polite. I hope that in the future he can communicate in a calmer and more respectful manner. I would also suggest that the buses be equipped with a restroom, at least for basic needs, since the trip is relatively long. In addition, it would be better if the price of the tour were lower or more reasonable compared to the services provided. Dans l’ensemble, le guide touristique était bon en termes…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 2,673 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $207

Spend a long but meaningful day exploring Normandy from Paris with an English-speaking guide. Visit Pointe du Hoc, Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery, Arromanches, and possibly Juno Beach. Expect about 3 to 4 hours each way by coach or minivan, roughly five hours at the sites, and a fast pace.

“Everything went well with exception we could not visit American Cemetery — due to New Years Day January 1 closed — I did not think to view the ABMC website for holiday schedule because we booked the “Normandy D-Day Beaches and American Cemetery Day Trip from Paris” and would have thought Viator would have known this — dress warmly in booking in winter — and double check holiday schedule some of the facilities / shoppes were closed which makes sense it was New Years after all We departed promptly 7am and returned by 7pm earlier because of change in itinerary . Leaving a good review because it was a enjoyable”

6.Giverny Day Trip with Audio Guide or Live Guide

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 2,372 reviews · 5 hours · from $93

Travel from Paris to Giverny by air-conditioned coach and visit Claude Monet’s house, flower gardens, and famous lily pond. Choose a live guide or explore independently with an audio guide. Guides such as Agnes, Alex, and Christelle have been praised for clear explanations, while the half-day schedule keeps the outing simple but leaves little time for lunch or the village.

“Beautiful day in Giverny. The trip went very smoothly. Agnes, our guide, was friendly, joyful, and knowledgeable. It was peak season, so the garden and house were crowded. The line for people trying to get in was extraordinarily long. It made us very happy we could skip all of that. Take a snack since there is really not time for lunch and the "snack" window in the garden is very limited. Have a late lunch when you get back to Paris.”
