  • 4My St Michel trip

    Pleasant ride thru countryside. Not much info along the way. Somewhat difficult to understand guide’s accent and volume. Recommend headsets for clarity and due to crowd noise.

    This was an excellent tour of a very scenic and spectacular UNESCO site. Our guide Élise had extensive knowledge and was attentive to our safety on many flights of stairs. One of our party lost an item and she went beyond the call of duty to locate it in a restaurant the following day and personally return it to us. An excellent experience

About Bayeux

Bayeux is a small Norman town of medieval lanes and a Gothic cathedral, home to a famous embroidery of the Norman conquest and close to the D-Day beaches.

A strip of embroidered linen almost seventy metres long, made in the eleventh century, tells the story of the Norman conquest of England in 1066 and hangs in its own museum in town. The cathedral, whose crossing spire towers over the rooftops, was consecrated in 1077 with William the Conqueror present. Bayeux escaped bombing in 1944, so its old centre of half-timbered and stone houses along the River Aure is largely intact.

Top-ranked sights in Bayeux: Omaha Beach, Pointe du Hoc, Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial.
