Calvados

A beautiful area offering pupils a snapshot of Normandy with medieval towns, such as Honfleur and Bayeux, but also a truly commemorative location which was heavily involved in the D-Day landings and the Battle of Normandy. Calvados offers pupils the experience of several poignant historical sites including the D-Day Landing beaches and the Mulberry Harbour at Arromanches as well as exciting French visits and fascinating museums.

Thanks to our excellent links with the top ‘school group friendly’ hotels, restaurants and attractions Calvados has long been one of our top destinations and offers excellent value for money.
