About this activity
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: 14000 Caen, France
Our Normandy tour from Bayeux will first take you to one of the last traditional Camembert making farms in the region. There, accompanied with one of our friendly English-speaking guides, you will be able to learn about the history and the techniques of Camembert making. Of course, tasting samples will be provided!
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: 14000 Caen, France
By the time lunch time comes, you will have the option to experience a homemade meal in true Normandy fashion. Expect apples, cheese and cream to be on the menu (optional). If you do not wish to join the lunch, you can also decide to get your own at a local restaurant recommended by our expert guide. Once you have been well fed, this Normandy tour from Bayeux will switch to a different topic: apples. Our gourmet tasting day tour will take you to a modern brewery where you will learn how cider is produced. At the end, you will be able to sample and taste different varieties of cider. You will also have the possibility to purchase your favorite one and bring it back home.
Yet, in Normandy, people do not only make cider with their apples. Calvados is a stronger alcohol that could be compared to brandy. It is distilled from cider and can greatly vary in taste depending on the type of apples that have been used to produce it. Local producers will show around calvados production facilities and will of course let you try some of their best products.
