This taxi ride crosses the heart of Normandy, from Alençon — famous for its UNESCO-listed Point d'Alençon lace — to Caen, the city founded by William the Conqueror in the 11th century. The route passes through the Normandie-Maine Regional Natural Park, the picturesque Norman bocage landscape of hedgerows and apple orchards, and the historic town of Argentan where the decisive Falaise Pocket battle took place in August 1944. Caen's Memorial for Peace is one of France's most visited museums, and the town's Romanesque abbeys and castle are architectural treasures. The D-Day beaches are just 15-30 minutes from Caen, making this transfer ideal for history enthusiasts. The route is entirely toll-free.
