Visit one of the symbolic jewels of Normandy with this day trip to Mont-Saint-Michel. Immerse yourself in its legendary history with this day trip from Bayeux.

Day Trip Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet at Place Québec in Bayeux to depart for Normandy. After a 90-minute drive, you'll arrive at Mont-Saint-Michel, the second most visited place in France after Paris. It's an island-rock located at the mouth of the Couesnon River, near the border of Normandy and Brittany.

The tour will start by visiting the interior of the Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey, dedicated to the archangel St Michael. You'll see the Romanesque architecture of the abbey church and the Marvelle, the area where the monks lived. We will also explore the cloister, the refectory, and reveal some secrets and legends of Mont-Saint-Michel, many of which have been featured in films and literature.

Then you'll have 1 hour of free time around Mont-Saint-Michel for lunch and to explore the village. Climbing to the viewpoints is recommended for excellent panoramic views of the bay.

We'll regroup to return to Bayeux, completing a total duration of 8 hours.
