While a vacation to Normandy is a must for any American history buff, families shouldn’t miss it either. This area of France, just a few hours from Paris, has wide beaches, picturesque half-timbered houses, apple orchards and bike paths to counter the many historical sites you’ll tour. This is a great place to invest in a kid-friendly guide who can make the significance of the battlefields, cemeteries and monuments easier for your children to understand in an age-appropriate way. And be sure to get to the fairytale Mont-Saint-Michel, one of the best day trips in Europe. Families find that Bayeux is a convenient location for exploring, and there are plenty of kid-friendly hotels in the center of the city. It’s also possible to book rental homes, seaside inns or country estates in Normandy for an even more relaxing experience with local flavor.

This is a challenging time for our clients given the uncertainty around the spread of coronavirus, particularly for those with near-term travel plans in impacted areas. We’re working with our suppliers on being flexible with their booking conditions, and enabling families to postpone travel to a later date without a penalty, when possible. Likewise, given the unpredictability around destinations that may be impacted in the future, we’re helping clients planning new trips and understand ways that they can protect themselves until the situation improves. We are ready to help our clients work through questions and concerns.
Our offices are closed for the holiday. We will respond to your request on Monday, November 28th. If you are a Ciao Bambino client experiencing an emergency while traveling, please leave a voicemail on
