Great day activity and so much information!

4.00This was a very good day tour from Bayeux. Prompt pickup and drop off, and "V" provided great information at the Abbey. Although other reviews talked about how "fun" the drive to and from was, due to the driver/guide, "V" was quiet other than a few facts here and there. A little more chatting might have been nice, but on the way back I loved the silence! "V" is a great driver, and such a great guide in the abbey!

5.00We were happy to be picked up in Bayeux and driven to Mont Saint-Michel. My husband was happy to be there during low tide and get to walk out on the muddy clay surrounding the island. The village and Abby were as impressive as we’d hoped. Our guide, Vi, was full of knowledge and stories than enriched the experience. I enjoyed the scale models of the Mont. Keep in mind the lines for the bus back to the parking lot are long, so we had to wait for another bus, and that made us a little late on our departure.
A day at Mont SM

5.00“V” was a great guide.. took us from room to room in every area with detailed explanations, history, and facts about SM.. timely pickup and drop off (8:00-430) and a good safe driver. This tour leaves from bayeux, not Paris.. right V? Ha ha Please note since you’re exploring all the abbey you will be going up steps, appx 300 in total.. it is doable but elderly, those with knee or back problems should be aware Highly recommended.. company took care of everything and good communications

5.00Mont Saint Michel tour was very well arranged. We were lucky to have the same guide, Manon, for the tour! The entire tour was indeed an unique experience in the medieval charm of the island and the abbey. We got enough free time to explore the area & grab lunch on the island before returning. Indeed worth visiting !!
Great Experience

5.00A perfect combination of wonderous architecture, history and the added bonus of seeing beautiful French countrysides/animals made this tour a must do on your visit to Normandie. Our tour guide Adrien was warm, knowledgeable and so forthcoming answering our questions. Make this tour your first choice with Adrien—visiting France’s second most popular destination—fairytale like Mont Saint Michel.
