Private Honfleur and Étretat Tour from Le Havre

Combine two of Normandy's most photogenic destinations on a private excursion from Le Havre. Explore Honfleur's picturesque old harbour, then admire the dramatic chalk cliffs of Étretat on the Alabaster Coast.

Your private experience

Your chauffeur collects you at the agreed cruise-terminal or hotel meeting point. Enjoy free time around Honfleur's Vieux Bassin and Sainte-Catherine district, followed by a scenic visit to Étretat. Cliff viewpoints may involve walking, exposed paths and weather-dependent access. The route and duration are adjusted to your ship's departure or your preferred return time.

Étretat

Étretat closes this excursion on the Alabaster Coast, about forty-five minutes north of Honfleur. If the cliffs and the coast are what you came for rather than the estuary, ourÉtretat & Alabaster Coast Private Tourpage is built around them instead.

Why travel with Normandy Private Driver?

Two destinations in one day only works if the driving between them is organised for you. Honfleur and Étretat sit on opposite sides of the Seine estuary, and the viewpoints above the cliffs depend on the weather on the day. We keep the route flexible, adapt the time in each town once we see the conditions, and confirm the return before leaving the terminal. Guided commentary is a licensed speciality we book separately when you ask for it.

Licensed guide, on requestCommentary on Honfleur's painters or on the geology of the cliffs is a licensed speciality, booked in advance and priced on its own.

Travel with an English-speaking private chauffeur. A licensed professional guide can be arranged on request.
