The next two days of our journey included a visit to Maison et Jardins de Claude Monet, and a Champagne Excursion to the houses of Taittinger and Mercier. There is not a better way to conclude the first part of our adventure than with the bubbles and cork popping of champagne!
Enjoy the photos and stay tuned for Paris!

The Normandy journey continues
With a visit to Mont St. Michel, a village perched on a tidal island located in the mouth of the River Couesnon. The Mont is surrounded by water and sand flats, the granite outcrops crowned by an abbey that took 500 years to build. There are over 350 steps to the abbey and once on top the views are magnificent. Although it rained and the skies were grey, we truly enjoyed this architectural masterpiece.

We depart for Normandy on our journey. This day was filled with emotions. We listened intently to a tour guide whose knowledge and animation of the D-Day Events was so powerful and exciting to listen to. Matilde brought the memories to life as we walked the beaches and the gravesites.

Hamden Travel’s Journey to Normandy and Paris continues!!! The day was filled with a visit to Rouen, a very historic and quaint cultural capital. We continued our journey to Honfleur, a very picturesque port. While in this area a stop was a must at Pere Magloire, one of the oldest houses for a Calvados tasting.

With the onset of Autumn and new adventures once again Hamden Travel designed a masterful trip to Normandy and Paris for 10 filled days of adventure. The journey began on the coach bus to the town of Bayeux. Along the way we were introduced to our first Croissant and then to Maison du Camembert to experience the art of cheese making and of course a tasting!
