Spend half a day exploring Rouen, Normandy's ancient capital, on a guided walking tour. Your tour begins with a scenic drive through the Norman countryside, heading inland to Rouen. Begin your walking tour though the old section of Rouen, down narrow cobbled lanes lined with ancient, timbered houses. You'll continue down the bustling Rue Saint Romain and the Rue du Gros Horloge, passing Rouen's old fortified clock tower and law courts, housed in a Renaissance building. You'll visit the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen, a superb example of French Gothic architecture that took 300 years to complete. Next on your itinerary is a photo stop at the Place du Vieux Marché, the Old Marketplace, the site where the English burned Joan of Arc at the stake. Before departing for the ship, you'll have approximately an hour in the city center to shop and browse.
