Private Tour
Mt St. Michel Private Tour with Abbey tickets and tour guide
Overview
Available languages
3 hours
Mobile ticket
Discover the magic of Mont Saint-Michel with a private guide who tailors the visit to your pace and interests. Your tour begins at the main parking area by the shuttle stop, from where you ride together towards the island. Crossing the bridge, admire the breathtaking views before entering the medieval village. Stroll along the fortified walls, pass through the iconic Porte du Roy, explore the Grand’Rue and its charming side streets, and visit the parish church of Saint-Pierre.
The highlight of the experience is the visit to the Abbey, located at the summit of the mount. Step inside to explore its stunning Gothic church, the cloister, refectory, scriptorium, guest halls, and atmospheric crypts spread across three levels. Your guide balances time between the village and abbey—about half each—while adapting to your walking pace, needs, and schedule. If you’re staying at one of the nearby hotels, the guide can conveniently meet you there and start the journey from your location.

5.00Florence was a wonderful guide. We had a bit of a mix up connecting, but once we did connect everything went smoothly. She is very knowledgeable and we really got to know and understand the place. Although the Mount and Abby were crowded, she guided us through several back alleys and passageways which made the tour feel unique to us. After the tour, she left us and we did further exploration and had some lunch as well. A wonderful day.
Highly recommend

5.00We visited in May 2025. The tour was well organized and I’m glad we joined it. There is a lot to take in at Mont Saint Michel so having your own guide enhances the experience.
