Set off for a full day excursion to one of
France's most popular and iconic sights: the
island of Mont Saint Michel, a truly unique
place between the sea and sky! Your guide
will tell you everything you want to know
about the atmospheric medieval abbey perched
on the top of the rocky island. After your
tour, take some time to soak up the island's
magic and the beauty of its bay, which
changes with the rise and fall of the tides.
Set off from your Paris accommodation at
6:30 am for our central Paris agency. Relax
on the journey by luxury air-conditioned

Begin your afternoon with a guided walking
tour of Mont Saint Michel, an enchanting
fortified rocky outcrop that dates back to
the Middle Ages and is surrounded by a large
bay with one of the most extreme tides in
Europe. Your guide will take you right to
the top of the island, to the fascinating
and unique Benedictine abbey that dates back
as far as the 8th Century. Explore the
cloister, refectory, and charming gardens
overlooking the sea far below.
Admire the breath-taking landscape: at low
tide the sand stretches as far as the eye
can see, while at high tide the island is at
the mercy of the sea. Stroll along the
ramparts and walls, visit the village's
museums, or sample some of the regional
specialities such as crêpes!
Return to your Paris accommodation is
scheduled for approximately 9:45 pm.
