I will be in Albert this Sunday and want to visit Pozieres and especially the cemetery, where my great uncle is buried. I am coming by train so will have to rely on public transport. I am happy to walk but how far is Pozieres from Albert? How long do you think it will take me? There is an option of taking a private tour from Albert but it's quite expensive. How easy would it be to get a taxi?

Hello, I intend to be in Amiens next October, and of course I plan to visit the famous Cathedral. I've read that the Cathedral is open from 8:30 to 17:30 during October. Nevertheless the Cathedral site mentions that the tour hour (on October) is at 15:45. OK - at first, I understood that free visits are from 8:30 to 17h, excluding mass times, and that there is a paid guided tour at 15:45. But... on other months (July, June, August...) there are times for "visits" and for "free visits" ("visite libre"). So, what's the difference between a free visit time and just an "open" time? Will I have problems to visit (without tour) the cathedral out of the 15:45 visit? I planned to be in the Cathedral during morning, and I didn't want to arrive there just to see the door closed, or access forbidden. Thanks in advance, merci.
