Payment for Services: All 2023 Group-Tour payments are processed securely via Stripe.
PayPal is also available ‘on-demand’ (via the reservation system) for all Private-Tour and/or ‘Transport-Solution‘ clients.
For last-minute bookings we can also accept cash-on-the-day (€). Just drop us a line, via text (WhatsApp is best) or email. If really late – and for GROUP tours only – try just turning up on the day and speaking to one of our guides.
Private & Group Tours from Paris by train: There is an excellent weekday Train Service from Paris St. Lazare Station to Bayeux, which stops briefly in Caen (15 minutes outside of Bayeux). We therefore pick up our Paris-based PRIVATE tour clients at Bayeux station Mon-Fri for a 09:45 tour departure, returning to the station at 17:45-18:00, in plenty of time to catch the train back to Paris.
NB: Our 2023 Mon-Fri [T5] Omaha Beach Group Tour (Incl: Colleville American Cemetery, Pointe-du-Hoc, Omaha Beach & much more…), departs central Bayeux, Place de Québec, at 13:00 – just a 12-minute stroll from Bayeux’s tiny train station – returning to the station at 18:00, in plenty of time to catch the train back to Paris. It’s a GREAT way to see medieval Bayeux (its renowned Tapestry, stunning Cathedral and/or Battle of Normandy Museum) on the morning of your special day!
**Don’t forget to check all train schedules before booking your ONTour service please**.
Note: For Bayeux sightseeing options in the morning, we recommend the earliest direct train from Paris St-Lazare to Bayeux.
*See ‘Helpful Info’ menu for train info, maps and more…
Our Cancellation Insurance: As stated in our full T&Cs (also delivered as a PDF file with your booking confirmation), we will refund payments for all cancelled services, where our Cancellation Insurance has been purchased at checkout. It’s an inexpensive addition, which we really encourage clients to add to their shopping cart, just for peace-of-mind (since standard travel insurance doesn’t cover cancelled tours!).
Luggage: Please see reservation system for guidance.
Note: On Private Tours and Transport Services a foldable wheelchair and 5-point isofix baby harness are available upon request, and on Group Tours we can provide child booster seats (for kids under 10-yrs), as per French transport regulations.
NB: These must be requested when booking – to avoid disappointment on the day. Please let us know via the ‘Special Requirements’ section in the booking form.
2023 Flash Update: The Arromanches Visitor Centre has been completely rebuilt over the past 2 years and reopens April 1st, 2023!
Newsflash (16.03.23): The Pointe-du-Hoc site has just suffered a major landslide and is partially closed to public at present. We’ll keep you updated. However, at present we’ve removed it as a viable secure tour site (until further notice).
Request: Once Private-Tour & Transport clients have reserved a tour with us, we ask that you automatically add us to WhatsApp (mobile app) and drop us a quick line just to say “hi”. The app should then be used for any last-minute changes (only).
Note: For all ongoing communications, please keep using our main email address as per normal: admin@normandyontour.com.
Thank you!
We look forward to welcoming you on board…
