Driver/guide was intuitive, funny, and informative. The drive doesn’t seem that long when you factor in the rest break on the way and on the way back. Plenty of time at the location to sight see, picture take, and eat/shop. Highly recommend.

Worth the visit!

Kerriann_C, Jun 2023

We picked this trip to get a little more time at Mont Saint Micel and were glad we did. Amazing place to visit.

A wonderful place in France to see!

Emily_D, Apr 2023

Honestly, the best tour I could have booked! The guide was lovely and spoke at least 3 different languages to those on our tour. It was the perfect amount of free time and I honestly loved this place! 100% would recommend if you have a spare day in Paris book this day trip.

I loved the self- guided...

Gayle_S, Mar 2023

I loved the self- guided abbey tour. I could move at my own pace. Roland was great! He provided some history of Mont St. Michel.

Excellent trip I had ever

WAITINGVIVIAN_L, Dec 2022

Excellent trip and the driver(I didn’t remember his name and he is from Nice) was nice and experienced for driving such long time and distance from Paris to saint Michel. I really wanna give him credit. The duration time that we stayed in Saint Michel was fair enough and free time was provided. I appreciated that tour was small in group and the car was so comfortable.

very uncomfortable long ride

Lance_K, Dec 2022

its 4 hours ride one way & minivan was totally jam packed & extremely uncomfortable. My legs went numb

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Hello We are sorry that you did not enjoy your excursion to Mont Saint Michel.Indeed, the duration is about 3:30 to go. We specify that our vans are 8 seats but they are all well maintained and comfortable

Amazing Landmark - Must Visit

ANNA_M, Dec 2022

Mont St Michel is an amazing place, if you are visiting Paris, put aside a day to take a trip to Normandy to visit the Abbey, have lunch in one of the many restaurants. The trip is long, but worth it. Driver was excellent.

Nice rich historical...

Cheryl_O, Dec 2022

Nice rich historical venue but unfortunately the rainy weather didn’t make it perfect. guide was helpful

Transportation very uncomfortable

Carlos_L, Nov 2022

Good trip but transportation is on an old and ver small van. Very uncomfortable for a long trip. The company needs to invest on better means of transport.

Majestic Tour

Isabelle_B, Nov 2022

Our group consisted of 5 people and we had a lot of fun. The drive was about 4 hours each way and we spent 5 hours at Mont Saint Michel. The location was beautiful. The driver was very kind.

Fairytale

Maya_G, May 2022

I absolutely enjoyed the tour and I would recommend it to anyone! The view it’s like from a fairytale! The weather was beautiful and I had my best birthday walking on the tiny cute streets! It’s a must go place!

The driver Was...

Marie_G, Apr 2022

The driver Was excellent,polite and accomodating We left on time and come back on time.I wish the van bad more rooms

Great place, terrible guide

Joseph_G, Feb 2020

Tour started off in a van that was too small for 8 people and a driver. Couldn't move. 3 different languages so guide had to repeat everything 3 times. Guide was crap. Spoke very soft and people in the second and back seat couldn't hear him. Not outgoing, didn't point out landmarks along the way. When we got there, we thought we were in our own because of little communication. He found us and gave us the tickets we needed to enter. Almost a 4 hour ride home in total silence.

Winter in Mont Saint-Michel

MariaKhristina_E, Jan 2020

Amazing trip. It was nice that not many people were visiting and I highly suggest that you join a small group (ours was 7). The view was amazing, and the tide was low so you can really see the village standing out. Might be a good experience too if it was high tide as well, so it would look as if it was floating. But overall, it was great. My friend and I enjoyed it

Perfect getaway

DAMODAR_B, Nov 2019

Clement our tour guide was excellent. He was funny and helpful. Place and weather were perfect too 👍👍

Very nice experience

drudametkin07, Nov 2019

It was all well planned and our guide was very nice during the explanation and the visit to the Abbaye du Mont Sain-Michel

Incredible Tour

Vivian_F, Sep 2019

Ancient times are so appealing. The guided tour was well worth it. Small shops and lots of restaurants. Plenty for the whole family.

FRAUDE

THEMIS_c, Jan 2023

A Viator vendeu o que não tinha para entregar. Vendeu passeio a SAN Michel para 01/01/2023 com visita a abadia incluída, cobrou por isto e neste dia a abadia não abre. Na véspera envia e-mail quando ninguém está olhando e-mail em que apenas oferece o reembolso do ingresso na abadia e do áudio guia, sem oportunizar a troca do passeio para um outro dia. Assim o grupo frustrado e com receio de ter um prejuízo maior resolveu ir a SAN Michel sem a possibilidade de conhecer a cereja do bolo que é a Abadia. Diga-se que por informações ficamos ciente de que a Abadia NUNCA abre no dia 01/01, então quem vendeu sabia que não iria entregar o que estava vendendo. Assim foi desonesto e merece ser processado por isto, o CDC está aí pra proteger o consumidor contra estas fraudes.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Bonjour, Nous sommes désolés pour votre mécontentement concernant l'excursion du Mont saint Michel et notamment sur la fermeture de l'abbaye le 1er janvier. En effet nous le stipulons sur notre site internet (aujourd'hui cette mention est enlevée car elle n'est plus d'actualité). Nous avons procédé à votre remboursement des tickets de l'abbaye et de l'audioguide mais il est vrai que nous aurions du vous prévenir même si cette information figurait sur notre site. Encore toutes nos excuses pour ce dysfonctionnement.

La mitad del grupo no...

Valeria_M, Mar 2022

La mitad del grupo no pudo ingresar a la abadía (que es el objetivo del viaje) por problemas del código QR. No se nos reembolso la entrada ni nada. El guía es buena gente, pero es más un chofer que guía turístico. Por todo lo demás, el lugar es muy bonito.
