Terrific Mont Saint Michel Tour - Our guide was Eliza and her knowledge of Mont Saint Michel, the architecture, and history is excellent. We enjoyed the tour, her explanations about Mont Saint Michel during our drive over and back, and her descriptions and historical background of each room we visited.

Marion was superb! - Marion was exceptionally knowledgeable and personable. She answered all our dumb questions and even looked up some she didn’t immediately know the answers to. My wife and I throughly enjoyed her guidance. There was plenty of time to complete the formal tour as well as provide personal free time to explore outside the group. We were able to walk back from the island to the van with plenty of time. Highly recommended!

We loved our tour guide! - Super fun! Our tour guide, Julie, was great. She knew a lot about Mont Saint-Michel and answered all of our questions. She was really great at keeping us engaged and laughing through the whole tour. She was very good at making sure we knew where to go and where to meet up, which can be hard with language barriers. Mont Saint-Michel was beautiful. We were worried about going during the day because we heard how great it was at night, but we still had a truly enjoyable time.

Excellent tour to one of the most surreal places - We did the full day tour to Mont St Michel (from Bayeux) in early January 2025. The trip to Mont St Michel itself is a couple hours each way, so you spend a lot of time on the road, but our transport was a nice new Mercedes van so it wasn't too bad. You get to see a bit of the countryside at least. Mont St Michel itself is unreal. You've probably seen pictures, but you don't really appreciate the size, scale and beauty of it until you're standing right in front of it. The place just oozes history, having been around in some form for more than 1,000 years. A couple dozen people still live there, and there's plenty of souvenir shops and eateries to satisfy your touristy needs. Our tour guide Kate was awesome. Not only does she have a huge amount of knowledge about the buildings and monastery on the mount itself, but she also gave us a LOT of information about the history not only of Mont St Michel itself, but also of the surrounding region. In short, a great tour to one of the most visited places in France (and rightly so). Highly recommended!

A memorable trip to St Michel's. - Katell picked us up in her clean and modern Mercedes van and drove us from Bayeux to Mont Saint-Michel. The journey took about 90 minutes, after which we made our way to the island. Katell's English was excellent, and her historical knowledge of Mont Saint-Michel, the Normandy region, and the military involvement during World War II was outstanding. She patiently guided us through each area of the monastery, explaining everything carefully, passionately, and precisely. The pace of the tour was perfect. Well done!
