- Honfleur - Arrive in Honfleur and start a walking tour of this delightful town, famous for its historic old harbor. Once the main defensive port of Normandy in the 15th century, Honfleur has evolved into a scenic resort town cherished by 19th-century artists. First mentioned in 1027, the town boasts a rich history, having changed hands during the Hundred Years’ War and later becoming a base for French corsairs who raided the English coast. In the 17th and 18th centuries, Honfleur flourished with trade from the American colonies. After the port’s closure, the town’s economy declined, turning it into a suburb of Le Havre. Today, it is one of Normandy’s most popular tourist spots. The walking tour lasts about 1 hour.
11:00 AM: Depart for Mont Saint-Michel. The drive is approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes (190 km).
- Mont-Saint-Michel - Your guide will take you through the medieval village’s narrow streets up to the Abbey. Whenever possible, join a guided tour led by a Mont Saint-Michel history expert. If this isn’t possible, audio guides are provided for the Abbey visit. Settled in 709, the site features a medieval village and a remarkable abbey fortress dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel. The construction of the Benedictine Abbey began in the 700s and continued through the 1200s, preserving its medieval allure. It remains a pilgrimage and tourist attraction, drawing around 4 million visitors each year. After the Abbey tour, enjoy some free time to explore Mont Saint-Michel and have lunch.
