Start / Finish: Deauville / Lison

Surely one of the most rewarding things about travelling with kids is seeing a place through their eyes, especially one you’re familiar with yourself. There is almost nowhere where that experience is more poignant than in Normandy. Rollo’s fiefdom; William the Conqueror; Operation Overlord… the sands of this region have witnessed a millennium of incredible human history. But as much as there is to learn here, this gorgeous strip of northern France is plenty fun, too. While the kids ride horses, fish and chariot-sail, the adults can sip Calvados at our private 16thC castle. And together, you can all explore Pegasus Bridge, view the Bayeux Tapestry and tour the American cemetery with a French Resistance fighter. Regardless of age, you’ll go home forever changed.
