I've been able to find out about trains between Avranches and the ferry ports, but wondered if there was anything like National Express in Normandy which might pass through Avranches in a more direct way than the changes necessary by train. St Malo is nearest to Avranches, but train connections to there are the worst. I thought there might be more likely to be a bus service between St Malo and Avranches for tourists than for Cherbourg and Caen.
Thanks.
Hi Jill
there is a fairly new bus service running here at the moment

There is also a good train connection from Cherbourg to Caen, which has a bus link out side the station at Caen to the ferry port at Ouistreham.
Cost for that is 3 euro (last time I used it)
I know what you mean about the train connections though. I was looking at going from where we are to Le Havre so I could use LD lines as a foot passenger.
Only way I could do it was to go in to Paris and out again. Would have taken about 8 hours.
