Sip and savor the pleasures of Normandy with a five-and-a-half-hour excursion that begins with a visit to Busnel & Anée, the renowned distiller of Calvados. Upon arrival you'll see the apple press, bright copper stills and the brandy is aged in oak casks. Following your tour you'll feast on a sampling of the world's premier apple brandy, as well as cider and Pommeau, an aperitif that's made by blending Calvados and pressed apple juice. Next, you're off to Honfleur for a guided walking tour that takes you to the lovely 15th century church of Saint Catherine, acclaimed as France's largest timber-built church. At the end of the day, you'll rejoin your coach for a relaxing ride back to Le Havre over the beautiful Normandy Bridge.
