About Le Havre
Le Havre is a vibrant port city located where the Seine River meets the English Channel. It is known as the second biggest port in France, Marseille being the first. From its humble beginning as a small fishing village, Le Havre has become one of the busiest ports in France.
Nowadays, it is appreciated for its contemporary architecture, coastal charm, and fresh seafood. The diverse museums, numerous festivals, and events held annually, as well as its maritime heritage, are what make Le Havre a special place to visit. Despite its breezy climate, Le Havre continues to attract visitors each year. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the cycle routes that Le Havre has to offer.
### A brief history of Le Havre
Le Havre was founded in 1517 by King Francis I of France. Initially, it was a small fishing village, but King Francis later decided to build a big harbor, which was essential for trade and commerce. The town flourished and became one of the busiest ports in France, known for trading cotton, leather, sugar, coffee, and tobacco.
In the 17th century, it served as a war port and played a strategic role in naval operations. Then, in the mid-18th century, houses were constructed along the coast, stimulating economic growth and increasing the population as people from various parts of France moved there. The city became one of the four main ports of France.
Unfortunately, Le Havre was largely destroyed during World Wars I and II, leaving only a small portion untouched. The French architect Auguste Perret led the reconstruction of the city from 1945 to 1964, and his visionary work has since earned it recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Le Havre is renowned for its extensive use of concrete in architecture and is considered the first modern city in France.
In the 1970s, the city faced challenges during the oil crisis, with high oil prices significantly impacting the economy, as the city relied on maritime trade and transportation. Le Havre took its first steps towards a more sustainable future by investing in energy efficiency. In the 1980s, the city shifted its focus to the growth of the tourism sector.
From Paris to Le Havre: travel tips
When you arrive from Paris to Le Havre, be prepared for a more relaxed and laid-back atmosphere. Le Havre is a walkable city, so comfortable footwear is essential. A few other things to keep in mind also help you prepare for an equally relaxing trip.
Be prepared for weather changes
As Le Havre is a coastal city, it is known for its windy climate. Make sure you bring windproof clothing to combat the breeze. Shield your eyes with sunglasses to protect them from the wind. Don't forget to drop a lip balm in your bag to keep your lips hydrated, given that wind can quickly dry them out. Le Havre’s weather can also be unpredictable. If rain is expected, bring a wind-resistant umbrella so you don’t end up soaked and with a broken accessory in your hands.
### Learn basic French phrases
Although you’ll likely meet English-speaking people at restaurants, hotels, and museums, French people will appreciate your efforts in learning some of the local phrases. It is a way of showing your respect for their language and culture. You don’t have to be an expert and reach the C1 level, but the French will appreciate learning the most common phrases.
Some phrases that might come in handy:
Bonjour (hello)
Excusez-moi (excuse me)
S’il vous plait (please)
Merci (thank you)
Au revoir (goodbye)
If you want to nail the pronunciation, you can always check it online by searching for how to pronounce the specific word in French.

How to get from Paris to Le Havre
There are multiple transportation options to get from Paris to Le Havre in just a couple of hours. Each one offers its mix of comfort, convenience, and affordability.
From Paris to Le Havre by ferry or cruise
If you have the time and are looking for a more leisurely experience, you can opt for a romantic and laid-back option by booking a ferry. Although direct travel from Paris to Le Havre isn't available, you can arrange a transfer by traveling to Ouistreham first and then taking a ferry to reach Le Havre.
You can also go on a romantic Seine River cruise from Paris, with various stops along the way, including Le Havre. It is a relatively expensive option, given that the cruise takes the whole day to reach the destination. Keep in mind that these journeys will be longer, and there are some quicker options, from which you can pick one that better adapts to your plans.
### From Paris to Le Havre by train
You can get to the harbor city by choosing a train. The cheapest fare is €16, and you will get there in just over 2 hours. There are 15 routes per day. While this option sounds convenient, the only downside is that you won’t be able to explore any of the charming stops along the way.
You can either choose between TER or TGV trains. With TER trains, you can expect more stops, which means a longer journey, as they are regional trains, while TGV trains are faster and make fewer stops. They are considered the fastest trains in France. Another downside TER trains have is that you can’t reserve a seat, which is not the case when it comes to TGV trains. Tickets range from $20 to $50 (€19 to €46).

This architectural masterpiece by Auguste Perret is the centerpiece of Le Havre’s UNESCO-listed modern reconstruction.
### Go on excursions to the maritime and modern art museums

Not keen on seafood? We’ve got your back! Try out some of the many types of Norman cheeses. The Neufchatel cheese is soft, creamy, and heart-shaped. It is known to be the oldest type of cheese in France. It is believed that its history dates back to the 6th century, so make sure you don’t miss out on trying this traditional delicacy.
When is the best time to visit Le Havre
The best time to visit Le Havre solely depends on your preference, but we would suggest visiting it either in late spring (from May to June) or early autumn (from September to October) to avoid big crowds and enjoy strolls around the city.
In late spring and early autumn, the weather is also rather mild, which means it will be more enjoyable, and the prices will be lower. From May to June, the temperatures are around 10 to 20°C (at the end of June, they can go even higher), while from September to October, the temperature typically is from 12° to 18°C degrees. This is just an approximation, as it can vary each year.
However, if you are planning to attend any of the summer festivals, you won’t want to miss out on visiting Le Havre from June to August. One of the most famous events is Summer in Le Havre (Un Été Au Havre), which was first held in 2017 in honor of the city’s 500th anniversary and attracted more than 2 million visitors.

“Utilicé este servicio para un traslado desde Split, en Croacia, hasta Perast, Montenegro. Mi experiencia fue excepcional. Mi conductor, Bojan, fue servicial, informativo y se aseguró de que mi viaje fuera cómodo y agradable. Recomiendo encarecidamente este servicio.”
“Quedamos extremadamente satisfechos con la calidad del servicio que recibimos de Day Trip. Tuvimos dos viajes con Day Trip el 31 de agosto de Atenas a Lefkada y el 7 de septiembre de Lefkada de regreso a Atenas. Ambos viajes incluyeron paradas en lugares pintorescos de Grecia. Ambos conductores fueron excelentes y complacientes. Sin embargo, nos gustaría especialmente reconocer a Panos Peppas, quien fue nuestro conductor de Lefkada a Atenas. Panos fue increíblemente amable y agradable, y brindó un servicio al cliente excepcional, que incluyó encargarse de todo nuestro equipaje, proporcionarnos aguas frías durante todo el viaje, darnos barritas de proteína, entregarnos material impreso sobre el Canal de Corinto (una de las paradas escénicas), buscar y facilitarnos información sobre la terminal y la puerta de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa, y proporcionarnos una receta de tzatziki.”

“Nos encanta absolutamente esta empresa y la hemos usado muchas veces a lo largo de los años para ir de un lugar a otro sin la molestia de alquilar un coche nosotros mismos. Conductores excelentes cada vez. Eficientes y profesionales. Vale cada centavo y sinceramente recomendamos Day Trip a todos. Su calificación de 5 estrellas está totalmente merecida.”
“Viajamos de Núremberg a Múnich en un hermoso Audi. El conductor nos recogió en nuestro hotel a la hora exacta solicitada. Nos llevó a Múnich con suficiente tiempo para nuestro próximo tour. El conductor se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos.”
“Gonzalo de Daytrip fue nuestro conductor y fue absolutamente increíble. Hizo todo lo posible por localizarnos, ya que no teníamos buena señal en nuestros teléfonos. Esperó pacientemente nuestra llegada al vestíbulo para llevarnos desde el Tulum Dreams Resort a nuestro otro hotel en Cancún, a una hora y media de distancia, cerca del aeropuerto, antes de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa. Fue educado, respetuoso y amable. Se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos durante todo el trayecto. Rápido y directo. Recomiendo esta empresa, ya que encontrar un transporte solo de ida de Tulum a Cancún no es fácil ni barato, y esta empresa ofrece un excelente servicio a un gran precio. Definitivamente los volveré a usar cuando esté en la zona de Cancún/Tulum. Gracias, Daytrip y Gonzalo.”
“Marianna nos recogió para llevarnos de Heraclión a Chania. El clima era terrible y, debido a esto, Marianna llegó unos minutos tarde. Me contactó para avisarme. Marianna vive en Chania y hizo que nuestro viaje fuera muy interesante al contarnos sobre cosas locales para hacer y ver en Chania. Marianna es una conductora segura y todos nos sentimos cómodos con la velocidad a la que conducía y lo bien que manejó bajo la fuerte lluvia. Es una persona encantadora y habla inglés con fluidez. Recomendamos mucho a Daytrip, y si estás en Heraclión o Chania, asegúrate de pedir a Marianna.”
“Utilicé el servicio para ir de Luxor a Hurghada, Egipto. Ahmed H fue nuestro conductor y fue perfecto. El coche era nuevo, estaba limpio, tenía agua y aperitivos para nosotros, y acomodó nuestras paradas. Gran servicio de su parte y lo recomendaría.”
“Sin otras opciones, reservamos Day Trip para llevarnos de Le Havre a París después del partido EE.UU. vs. Suecia el 20/6.
Faycal fue nuestro conductor, fue muy comunicativo durante todo el trayecto. Nos encontramos en un lugar designado y el viaje de dos horas fue sin esfuerzo. ¡Excelente conductor, vehículo impecable y gran servicio!”

“Excelente servicio, nuestro conductor Boussaada nos estaba esperando en el aeropuerto, muy servicial y amable, listo para responder a nuestras preguntas. Nuestro viaje de casi tres horas fue muy agradable, volveré a utilizar este servicio en cualquier momento.”
“Usamos Daytrip para varios viajes el otoño pasado, incluidos Croacia y Austria. Estaba emocionado de saber que se habían expandido a Francia para nuestro viaje esta primavera. Tuvimos maravillosos viajes en ambas direcciones antes y después de nuestro puerto de cruceros en Le Havre, visitando Mont St Michel en un sentido y Normandía en el otro. Ambos conductores fueron profesionales y muy complacientes. Thiandella, quien nos llevó a Normandía, fue más allá para asegurarse de que el día fuera exactamente lo que queríamos. ¡Daytrip sigue siendo nuestra primera opción para traslados en Europa!”
