In this Normandy travel vlog, we explore some of the best places to visit and try some of the best local foods, in the coastal northern part of Normandy: Honfleur, Deauville, Beuvron en Auge & Etretat. We got to ride on a sidecar through the countryside and stopped at the Dupont Calvados Domaine for a Calvados & Cider tasting. Enjoy!

They are on a quest to find the best France has to offer.
There are over 35,000 villages in France, all with their own history, culture, and food. We are on a journey to discover as many of them as we can together. Let’s go.

Not only do you do a fabulous job of showing people great places to go, eat, etc, in France, but it's just such a pleasure to see such a happy family enjoying these things. I hope you show us not only all of France, but other places too! And the videos are also very well made.

Oh thank you to all of you, Colleen and Antoine and also to your son and Vincent too. We so enjoyed seeing that there is so much more to the Normandy region than the soberness of the D-day beaches. This video was absolutely wonderful, like being invited along with you on a family picnic. Well we’ll done. Loved the side car ride!

Great videos of Normandy. We stayed in Villers Bretonneux and drove around the Somme area and then going to the D Day beaches.The only thing you missed was the D Day Museum Arromanches-les-Bains extremely interesting. The artificial Mulberry harbour was an unbelievable effort in those times, almost impossible these days. Keep up the great work.

[@LesFrenchiesTravel]

That museum was awesome!

[@claire-janehawkins5883]

I loved this one! My family and I are discussing going to the Normandy region of France to see all that happened during WW2 & world history. And yes, I am very concerned (for myself) to be around too many reminders of death and dying for a week or more. So, I was so happy to see your video about all of the joyful things to see and do while there. I will share this with my family. Thank you for your fabulous videos.

Love Honfleur. Deauville is lovely, but Trouville is just as nice and more affordable. We stayed at a hotel on the beach in Trouville for about $120 euros a night. Beautiful room. Plus, the hotel had an indoor and outdoor pool. From Trouville, you can walk to Deauville in under 10 minutes and also take a 30 minute bus ride to Honfleur. We had the best time. Check Trouville out. Thank you for the video. Your videos are very refreshing and they remind of the times I have spent and will spend in France.

Rouen is also worth so much more than it gets from the usual tours which see the famous clock, Joan of Arc execution site and the cathedral. At least three days to see the other important churches and to sample the restaurants. And then of course Bayeux and Caen. This comment is not a criticism of your great vid, but intended to augment in the event someone is doing a little travel research. N.B.

Hi guys, fabulous work as usual. While visiting Deauville were you tempted to drive a Mustang on the beach.? As a wild card if I may add Cabourg ( in search of the lost time by Proust) and Bayeux for its wonderful cathedral and medieval tapestry. Also Villedieu les poêles is a very typical village.
