We truly enjoyed the wealth of knowledge Charles showed and presented to us. We totally learned and appreciated the tour.

Roxanne_D

Learning the history, seeing the architecture, and the views, enjoying local lamb for lunch! Our guide, Valentin, was very knowledgeable, he answered all our questions, he was very congenial!

akshitap127

Wonderful tour guide, very informative. The meeting point in bayeux was central and we were able to walk to it. After that the tour guide took care of us and told us a lot about the history. Highly recommend. Hassle free way to get to Mont Saint Michel.

Robert_K

Our guide was great and knowledgeable. Fun! My only complaint is that being let go for lunch before the drive home was a real problem. We needed to be forewarned that at that time getting lunch is virtually impossible. Advise people to pack a lunch please.

Alisdair_W

Good visit to the Mont, keeping a decent pace without being rushed. Valentin was a good guide both in knowledge and in attitude.

Danica_M

Valentin is a wonderful guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and thoughtful and kept the tour moving at a nice pace. He gave an excellent tour of the abbey. Note that many tours do not include a guided abbey tour. I couldn’t imagine exploring the abbey without Valentin. There is so much history and detail to be shared. The van was roomy and clean and we felt safe and comfortable during our drive. Thank you Valentin!

Tour guide - Superb. We traveled back roads to Mt St Michael. Majestic site. 115 steps to top, not ADA friendly.

GREGORY_C

The first views of Mont St Michel were incredible. As we got closer, it’s overall magnificence stood out. The tour got us there but interpretation was minimal.

Sheila_T

It was an awesome sight to see Mont Saint-Michel rising from the sea in front of us. We climbed the 350+ stairs to the top. our guide, Charles, gave us a lot of history of the Abby. On the way down we had a delightful lunch with a view of the the tide flats.

Outstanding tour! Valentin, our guide, Picked us up at Bayeux center city. From Bayeux it is a 90 min drive to MSM parking lot, 30 mins in line/tram to MSM, 2-3 hour tour of abbey, then 1-2 hours independent time to wander the streets of MSM and have lunch, then time to return. This tour was a bit more expensive than some of the others, but our tour guide not only provided transportation but personally guided us through the entire abbey which was outstanding. Valentin is an archeologist who loves history and was extremely knowledgeable of all the aspects of the abbey. Would HIGHLY recommend this tour company.
