We liked how the guide greeted us by our names and then during the excursion, unraveled the cultural richness of these two seaside towns. Upon seeing Honfleur, we understood why so many painters have been inspired by this charming village. Deauville has a different vibe (more upscale) with its attractive sandy beaches and fancy shops. For anyone docking in Le Havre this excursion is a must-do.

As a first time cruiser docking in Le Havre, this Honfleur and Deauville shore excursion stands out as one of the most memorable part of my cruise journey. The meeting point was easy to find. I enjoyed the way the guide enlightened the group about the striking contrast between the two towns. The tour also included restroom stops, which was another convenience.

It was a well-paced excursion which we enjoyed. As part of it, we explored Honfleur and we also had a pleasant lunch near to the harbor.

My wife and I already visited Paris last year, so we wanted something easy and nice. Honfleur and Deauville were stunning, and our guide Lawrence made the day smooth, fun and very well organized.

Laurence was incredibly informative and so much fun. Such a beautiful part of France that we never would have discovered on our own.

This tour to Deauville and Honfleur was truly delightful. Laurence, our guide, knew so much about the area and the region and made the whole experience even richer. The towns themselves were stunning, full of history, pretty waterfront scenes, and amazing spots to grab local pastries as well.

The village of Honfleur was easily the highlight of the trip, offering beautiful scenery and pleasant atmosphere. Our guide Igor was fantastic! Found the time in Deauville to be a little unnecessary thought.
