Embark on a private Shore Excursion from Saint Malo to explore the breathtaking Mont Saint Michel, one of France’s most iconic landmarks and a UNESCO World Heritage site. This stunning island, situated in the English Channel, is famous for its dramatic tides and its majestic abbey, which took centuries to complete.
Your journey begins with a comfortable ride from Saint Malo Cruise Port to Mont Saint Michel, where you’ll access the island via a shuttle and a bridge. As you approach, take in the beauty of the Normandy coastline before heading to the mount. Upon arrival, enjoy free time to explore the narrow streets of the medieval village, or if you wish, climb the cobblestone paths up to the abbey for panoramic views of the surrounding bay.
At the abbey, your guide will provide a detailed history of its construction, which spans from the 8th century to the 15th century. If you choose, you can purchase entrance fees to the abbey during booking.
Explore the villager's shops, restaurants, and museums at your own pace, or enjoy lunch recommendations from your guide. This intimate tour, designed for small groups of up to 7 people, ensures personalized attention and an unforgettable experience of Mont Saint Michel.
Please note: The climb to Mont Saint-Michel Abbey is steep and includes many steps, requiring good physical fitness.
