How to get there from Paris:
-------------------------------------------
By car: autoroute de Normandie up to Caen.
By train: 13 regular departures from Paris to Caen (1.45 up to 2hours). Info at the SNCF tel 0836353535 and also to buy your train tickets

How to visit the D-Day beaches?
------------------------------------------------
The "circuit 44" of Green buses allows the visit of all Landing sites in the Calvados, from July to September for 100 FF a day. The idea is to circulate on the Landing sites with discounts for the museum entrance fees.  Direct connections from Caen, Bayeux, Grancamp-Maisy and all the stations of the Cote de Nacre.  Correspondences are easy to Bayeux and Caen with all trains arriving from Paris. A so-called "Liberty card" gives you the opportunity to circulate on the whole Green Bus maze for 3 consecutive days for 150 FF. Info for travellers tel 0231447744 (Caen).
