Bespoke Normandy tour

Normandy offers an exceptional wealth of landscapes, heritage and gastronomy. With Precellence, build your bespoke tour: several destinations possible in a single day.

Your Precellence chauffeur picks you up at your hotel, home or any Paris address, and accompanies you throughout the day. Each step is adjustable to your wishes.

A typical day: Paris to Omaha Beach and Bayeux with a private driver

An example day, to adapt with you: an early start from your hotel or address in Paris, then, depending on your priorities, Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, Pointe du Hoc, Arromanches and Bayeux, and back to Paris in the evening.

The package includes 5 hours on site, shared between the stops: the order, the stops and the time spent at each are agreed with you when we prepare the quote. Beyond 5 hours on site, or for another programme (Utah Beach, Sainte-Mère-Église, the Caen Memorial…), the price is set on quote and confirmed in writing before any payment.

We are a private chauffeur service, not a tour agency: you visit the sites at your own pace; no guide and no entrance ticket are included. All our chauffeurs speak French and English; another language can be requested 48 hours ahead, at no extra cost, subject to availability.

One-way trips to Normandy

To stay in Normandy, a one-way trip from central Paris has a fixed price in an E-Class: Caen / Omaha Beach €640, Rouen €380, Étretat €540 and Deauville €590 (S-Class and V-Class: see the table). These trips can be booked online up to 2 hours before departure; an outbound and return trip requested together get 10% off, on quote.

What is included

A fixed price per vehicle, not per passenger, including VAT: fuel and tolls are included, with no surcharge at night, at weekends or on public holidays. During the day package, the chauffeur stays with you: waiting between stops is part of the hours on site.

For a one-way trip, the first 15 minutes of waiting at a pick-up address are free; after that, waiting is charged at the hourly chauffeur-on-demand rate for the class booked, per hour or part hour. You receive the chauffeur's name and phone number no later than 2 hours before pick-up.

Booking, payment and cancellation

The day package is booked on quote (form, phone or WhatsApp): the price is confirmed in writing before you pay. A one-way trip can be booked online up to 2 hours before departure; for long distances, 48 hours' notice is recommended. The full fare is paid when you book, by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay; companies can pay by bank transfer within 30 days of invoice.

Under our terms and conditions (article 5): cancel more than 48 hours before pick-up and 80% is refunded; 24 to 48 hours, 50%; 6 to 24 hours, 25%; less than 6 hours or no-show, no refund. Changing the date, time or address is free as long as we hear from you before the chauffeur sets off.

Travelling with children

Child seats are free, on request when you book. In a van (V-Class or EQV), up to 2 child or booster seats and 1 infant seat. In a saloon (E-Class, EQE, S-Class), ask for it when you book and give the age of each child: a booster seat is provided without difficulty; a child seat or an infant seat is confirmed by our team depending on availability.

6 June and the D-Day commemorations

Next commemorations: from 29 May to 13 June 2027 (announced dates) (83rd anniversary, ceremonies on 6 June; 2027 programme not yet published). Source: Normandy Tourism (official regional tourist board).

Around 6 June the coast is very busy and some roads may be closed or restricted around the ceremony sites, by order of the prefecture: set off early and book as early as you can. We sell neither access to the official ceremonies nor tickets: access depends on their organisers, often by invitation only. Our price is the same on that day.

The 85th anniversary falls in 2029: milestone anniversaries usually draw more visitors, so book as early as you can.
