This private Honfleur tour takes you on a casual walk through its narrow cobbled streets, past animated cafés and lively restaurants, to docks where fishing vessels unload their fresh catch, and to the Eugène Boudin Museum that honours its native son, the painter who so influenced Claude Monet partly by imparting to him a taste for painting in the open air. This museum also displays works by such as Dufy, Monet,  Jongkind and Van Dongen, to name a few.

Honfleur has a long history of attracting artists, including the Impressionists who often joined Boudin at the Ferme Saint Siméon,  now a swank five star hotel that few artists can afford to approach! This charming port also was home to the likes of the illustrious poet Baudelaire and the eccentric Erik Satie, and you can visit a museum that is devoted to the composer. Honfleur also offers a wide selection of worthy dining establishments, including Michelin single and double starred establishments and superb bistros. Some of the world’s freshest and most delectable sea food takes pride of place.
