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 by minibus for the south of 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 between Normandy and Brittany.
The tour will start with a visit to the interior of the Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey, dedicated to the archangel St Michael, where we will admire the Romanesque architecture of the abbey church and the Marvelle, the area where the monks lived. During the tour of the cloister and other parts, we'll reveal some of the secrets and legends of Mont-Saint-Michel.
Then you'll have 1 hour of free time around Mont-Saint-Michel to have lunch and explore the narrow streets of the village at the foot of the abbey. Climbing up to the viewpoints is recommended for excellent panoramic views of the bay.
Finally, we'll return to the starting point in Bayeux, completing the trip after a total of 8 hours.
