Mont-Saint Michel Day Trip from Paris - We did the Mont Saint-Michel day trip from Paris and everything ran super smoothly! The tour guide was very clear with the information and the organisation was great. Even though this is a bit of a long day, it’s completely worth it!! What an AMAZING location.

Exceptional tour - ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! Easy and comfortable bus ride to the Mont, but NOT for anyone who cannot walk many steps. Guide was superb and very knowledgeable.

Incredible Place - Very smooth with 1 exception that I will speak on at the end. Meeting point was easy to get to and departure was prompt. Half way to and from the abbey we had a 1/2 hour pit stop. The onboard guide was helpful and knowledgeable of the area. Mont Saint Michel has a fairytale appearance. The views are increadible of the area and from the abbey, worth the trip.
The 1 issue was mis behaving children. It is a 4 1/2 hour drive there and the same back, a 14 hour day. No place for small children, ill mannered children, or parents that won't deal with their children. This trip and any others like it should have a minimum age of 10, no exceptions and spell it out in the booking. It makes for an even longer and more tiresome ride.

Must see - Glad to have booked a guided tour so we didn't get lost.
However, more time than 4 hours is needed to explore the site.
With the time for the guided portion and lunch, barely an hour and half was left to go around on our own. It took a while to wait in queue for the shuttle because there were many school kids there on field trips.

Wonderful despite not having the advantage of audio guidance - It was a fabulous experience however I paid for a guided tour and the audio boxes did not work so I wasn’t able to get as much backstory as I had hoped.

Meet us where you say. - Excellent tour guide although the upper bus ceiling was way too low and the seats a little cramped. Meeting place was up the road from the designated spot and no-one came to advise or check if anyone was there! Would have loved an extra ½ hour on the island, and an extra 5-10 mins at the roads stops, but then it becomes a 15 hour day. Still would have gone. Otherwise an excellent experience, and very worth while.

Long drive to a stunning place - Long drive to the destination with limited time while there. Mont st Michel is stunning. The guide could have been clearer in her diction, it was challenging to comprehend at times. However, she addressed all our questions patiently.
