A Mercedes from the ship to Étretat

About this experience

DriverLh is a Le Havre driver company, and this is a plain transfer, not a tour. A driver meets you outside the cruise terminal, helps with bags and boarding, and drives about 30 km to Étretat in an air-conditioned Mercedes. You get the cliffs, the town and the beach on your own, then the same ride back with time to spare before all-aboard. The listing gives about 7 hours for the lot; you settle the timing inside that with the driver on WhatsApp.

The listing is new and has no reviews of its own. The operator has two on Tripadvisor, both short and happy. The price starts at $113 per person and varies with group size, for 8 travellers at most. Viator lists it as offered in French, so expect a driver whose English may be basic. On a transfer that matters less than on a guided day.

Set it against the Y GO shared shuttle at $135: that one has fixed hourly departures and 13 reviews. This one is cheaper and runs on your clock, but it's untested. With about 5 hours in town you can walk the Aval clifftop to the Manneporte viewpoint and back, or do the Amont side and the Jardins d'Étretat.

Tips before you book

• Send your ship's name and arrival time on WhatsApp the day before.
• Agree a fixed meeting point in Étretat. Parking is paid all year and the driver may not be able to wait at the kerb.
• Set the return for at least 90 minutes before all-aboard.
• Only climbing once? Go Aval: the Aiguille and the arch are on that side.
