Honfleur, Concierge Collection: Gourmet Tasting & French Opulence in Deauville
Take the motor coach for the 40-minute drive to Deauville to experience the "Côte Fleurie" of the Belle Epoque. During this period, with the deployment of railroads and the growing fashion for sea bathing, Normandy and the Pays d'Auge's coasts became an escape from big cities for the wealthy and a new playground for architects. In that period, small villages were converted into prestigious cities to welcome the aristocrats and bourgeois in search of entertainments and vacation resorts. As you enjoy an orientation tour around the city, its luxurious hotels, casino, impressive villas, hippodrome and more, it will help you picture and understand how Deauville developed itself to become one of the most prestigious seaside resorts. You will then make a stop right next to the renowned hippodrome, for a guided visit of the "Villa Strassburger," one of the symbols of the Belle Epoque era of Deauville. Built in 1907 for a Baron on the lands of Gustave Flaubert's family and later bought by a rich American press editor, this unique architectural heritage will give you a sense of the majestic villas you can find in the area. Back then the main goal was to have not only the most impressive house, but also the most eccentric and beautiful. Hence the architectural diversity and eclecticism you will find in many of the seaside resorts of the "Côte Fleurie," between Honfleur and Cabourg. As you step into the Strassburger estate, you will immediately be transported into a Norman postcard with the gardens filled with apple trees and the Neo-Norman architecture of the Villa. Inside, you will discover original furniture and decors exactly as it was left by the Strassburger family in 1980. To add to your Norman experience, you will then meet Marie, an expert in local delicacies and products of the French soil. She will welcome you to her half-timbered shop, wine cellar and delicatessen for a little "Pause Gourmande à la française" (Frenchie gourmet break). After enjoying some free time, you will get back to your coach for the drive back to Honfleur. Please note: Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring local currency.
