Rouen enjoys a temperate oceanic climate, characterized by a certain humidity and moderate temperatures, with mild summers averaging around 22°C and cool winters ranging between 1°C and 7°C. The ideal period to discover the "City of a Hundred Spires" runs from June to September, offering mild weather to admire the half-timbered facades and the cathedral, or to enjoy the banks of the Seine. The month of June is particularly recommended during the years of the Armada (tall ships festival), while December offers a magical atmosphere with its Christmas market and illuminations, despite the Norman chill.

Départ conseillé

No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audio-guide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point: Place de la Cathédrale.

Parking à proximité

Parking de la Cathédrale-Rouen Normandie: Place de la Haute Vieille Tour. In Rouen, there are plenty of parking options, both above and below ground. However, if you're looking for free parking, you'll need to head out of the city center (e.g. Parking Eauplet or Rue Joseph Lebas Parking). And rest assured; you can take the metro or bus, and easily reach the city's top attractions in just 15-20 minutes. During this visit, we'll be passing through the Saint-Maclou Churchyard. To avoid any last-minute surprises, please remember that the site has specific opening and closing hours. If it's closed when you get there, you can continue along Géricault Street and then take Victor Hugo Street and Martainville Street toward our next point of interest. The same goes for the Petite Horloge passageway, which closes in the evening as it's a private property. If the doors are closed when you arrive, you can take Pont de l'Arquet Street and then Eau de Robec Street toward our next point of interest.

À savoir

Just like any other big tourist destination, Rouen has a City Pass that gives you discounts on public transport and activities. It's a great alternative if you want to explore the city at your own pace.
