Thanks for the heads up! We will be arriving the 9th, so very disappointing. Will have to come up with something else to do for the afternoon without a car. :(

When I was in Bayeux back in 2017, the tourist office ran a walking tour. I don't know whether it was every day of the week, though.
You can also use trains or buses to travel east to Deauville/Trouville, Cabourg and even Honfleur.
Nearby Caen took a very heavy hit during the war and doesn't have Bayeux's charm, but it does have several notable sights.
