Do you need more information for your trip to Normandy?
Airport:
-Caen-Carpiquet Airport
-Deauville Airport
-Both of these airports mainly fly domestic flights, however there are some international options.
-The best way to fly to Normandy is to fly into Paris and then take the train.
Train:
-From Paris St. Lazare Station, trains can take you to Normandy in roughly 1.5-2.5 hours depending on your destination
-You can search for train tickets using Trainline and Omio. Both of these sites will compare ticket prices finding you the best deal.
How to get around the region:
-There are trains that connect to major towns such as Rouen, Bayeux, Le Havre, and Caen, but getting to some important spots including Mont St. Michel or the D-Day beaches might be a bit of a challenge.
-My 2 visits to Normandy have been via road trip since we wanted to explore the smaller and more charming hidden gems. If this interests you I'd highly recommend RENTING A CAR.
-For my most recent road trips we have been using rentalcars.com and have been loving it - we have found the best deals on here! (This is an affiliate link)
-You can also consider exploring some of the biking routes around Normandy or exploring by Camping Car.
How to get to/from the airport:
-If you are arriving at the airport in Caen, you can either take a bus or a taxi into the city.
-There is a Caen Airport Bus route (the number 3 bus) that will take you into the city center from the airport.
-You can use this trip planner to find the closest stop to your accommodations.
Want help planning your trip to Normandy?

How can we make your trip EVEN BETTER?
Curated recs are great if:
you know where you want to go, but don’t have the time or energy to research where to eat, what to do, or where to stay!
Custom itinerary is great if:
you know where you want to go but cannot commit the time to planning and researching the logistical details. You can choose whether you want an in-depth itinerary or a trip outline!
Consultation calls are great if:
you want to chat face-to-face with someone who has lived in Europe for 4 years and can give you advice, tips, or even feedback on your itinerary. We can talk about everything and anything you need help with!
