5.00Abbey was closed so we also saw parts of Brittany- coastline of the bay and the towns of Concale- St. Malo and Dinant are beautiful and worthy of a separate tour from Bayeau- great guide.

5.00Our tour guide (V) was spectacular. She was knowledgeable and personable and paced the tour perfectly. We never felt rushed but it also never lagged or got boring. We enjoyed Mont Saint Michel and I felt like the abbey and village are among the most magical sites in the world. Absolutely recommend. One thing to note...there are a LOT of stairs, like a crazy number of stairs. Still recommend the tour company and the site as a 10/10 must do if you are in France.
I would recommend this guide to people of all ages. So very happy and delightful sharing of the story!!!

5.00Gwen was an excellent tour guide with an encyclopedic knowledge of Mont St. Michel and Normandy. He was very friendly, spoke perfect English, and even allowed a short detour to Omaha Beach which was great to see.

5.00We were lucky enough to have our guide, Rose, two days in a row, with our day tour of Mont Saint-Michel on the second day. From the moment Rose picked us up, she filled our day with history and interesting background stories of this Unesco World Heritage site in a comfortable, easygoing manner. We didn’t feel like we were on a tour but rather with an old friend who had an incredible amount of knowledge about Mont Saint-Michel and the local area surrounding it. She knew just the right locations for us to stop and take pictures both on our drive to and leaving Mont Saint-Michel, and her walking tour on Mont Saint-Michel. It was fun, informative and off the beaten track of other visiting tourists. Even our two teenagers loved our time with Rose and that is always a tough crowd! We highly recommend Rose if you are visiting Mont Saint-Michel!
