Originally, this is a very nice approach. Unfortunately, when two different groups of foreign languages share the same guide, you’re always waiting for it. Also, when different ages present themselves in the group, you do not do the same route because of the steps of Mont Saint Michel. For the end, not to find our guide at the famous waiting point. It could have been a very nice adventure. What a shame...

On a recent trip to Bayeux, Normandy, to explore all the D-Day beaches and displays we did a day trip to the captivating Mont St Michel. We were fortunate to find our guide, Eva Ruttger, of visitnormandybeaches ([email protected]). Eva met us promptly in the morning and she drove us in her very comfortable car, our group was 4 adults, for the 1.5 hour drive to the island (excellent driver by the way). If you are in the area I heartily recommend to visit this fascinating site. All during the trip Eva provided interesting background. Then, when at the site, her experience helped us navigate quickly up to and through the town, and the Abbey. Even though it was October there were still large crowds. Her special knowledge really helped us. If you are not aware of Mont St Michel it is a tidal island surrounded by vast expanse of water, and at low tide it is somewhat disconcerting to see people walking across large areas of the flats. We were struck by the incredibly complicated task facing the builders to erect a huge Cathedral and Abbey on such a small parcel, and overcoming intense inclines. The stained glass if marvelous also. I highly recommend Eva and this tour. Eva is charming, articulate, and most enjoyable company.
Poor group logistics and wasted time

This tour does not offer good value because we paid for a 2 hour tour, but the guide took both English speakers and French speakers, so half the time was spent doing the tour in French. This is a waste of your clients’ time and not how your groups should be handled.

Nice little getaway in the streets of Mont St-Michel with experienced guide. Lets you get out of the tourist area and get to know interesting anecdotes and stories. The guide is a good speaker and captivates his audience. We had a good time and enjoyed it.
Excellent value
