Rouen, Honfleur & the Highlights of Normandy
Yet again Riviera excels. The chosen Hotel, Gustav Flaubert, was excellent both in location and it's appointment. Superb breakfast too.
Our guide Franck, was knowledgeable and very pleasant company.
Our driver was excellent too.
This is a beautiful area with so much to see.

Rouen, Honfleur & the Highlights of Normandy
This was my fourth holiday with Riviera Travel and once again it was a very enjoyable experience. I travelled with two friends and was amazed to see there was just thirty of us on the trip. I felt that Riviera must be keeping this as one of their well kept secrets. This trip should surely be one of the favourites. Going during May was surely the best time to go. It was certainly warm enough whilst the places of interest were less crowded. Keith was our congenial, knowledgable and entertaing guide whilst Abdel was our very adept, friendly and obliging coach driver. It was an intesting mix of places we visited from the site of the floating 'Mulberry Harbour' at Arromanches to a Benedictine distilery at Fecamp. Our hotel was comfortable and well placed in the centre of Rouen meaning we were spoiled for choice when deciding which restaurants we should eat at. A lovely short break. More people should do this one!
