Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Abbaye du Mont-Saint-Michel, Bp 22 Au sommet du village, 50170 Mont-Saint-Michel France

This tour transports you from Paris to the magical abbey-crowned island of Mont Saint-Michel, one of the most iconic sights in all of France, aboard a private bus. Offering you a hassle-free way to explore the island with plenty of free time ensuring you do not have to adhere to a rigid sightseeing schedule.

As you approach the Mount Saint-Michel, your guide will provide insight on the UNESCO-listed island. Listen to interesting anecdotes about the history of the abbey, whilst admiring the views of the island and the surrounding region of Normandy Mont Saint-Michel began humbly enough in the eighth century, when – citing orders from Archangel Michael himself – a bishop built a church on this small and secluded rock island, which later expanded during the medieval era, attracting an increasingly large number of pilgrims.


Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Mont-Saint-Michel, Mont-Saint-Michel, Manche, Basse-Normandie, Normandy

You can then choose from some of the many options for lunch, ranging from dining rooms serving rustic meat-focused fare to sophisticated restaurants with bay-view terraces specializing in seafood. Alternatively, you can stop by one of Mont Saint-Michel’s crêperies and feast on galettes (buckwheat pancakes) paired with Normandy cider, for a more casual and characteristically Breton feed.

In the late afternoon, re-board the bus for the return journey to Paris, which will see passengers back in the City of Lights well in advance of bedtime.

Duration: 2 hours

Our two hosts Daniel and Sayid were great, very hospitable and informative making French history fun and enjoyable on what was a long trip to Mont St Michel. Sayid took time to go around every passenger on the bus (there was 48 of us) and asked us if we needed any recommendations, there wasn’t one question he couldn’t answer. (the bakery was a hit for us!!!) I would recommend both hosts for any future tours with citywonder! The tour itself was great fun and definitely worth the price!

Our experience with La Vacanza Travel was quite poor one. We bought a tour to Mont Saint Michel in advance. A day before the trip we have got a voucher with a meeting instructors. We came in advance as we were told. There were 11 other tourists, all with vouchers form La Vacanza Travel. We were waiting for a pick up at Trocadéro as it was mentioned in our vouchers. But no one came to pick us up. It was really cold morning and my 10 years old daughter froze a lot. Than some of the tourists took a call from a guide who was wondering if he is coming. And only than they paid attention that 13 people are missing! They say over the phone that the bus has left and nothing can be done. La Vacanza Travel is just an resale agent and the company is not responsible for La Vacanza Travel’s mistake. We were all very upset. But thanks to the great guides from City Wonderers, who were responsible for the trip, the bus made a turn and came back for us! Although it took 30 min of the time of the whole group! We are very grateful to City Wonderers for a great day! To James and Ifi in particular. They are great guys! My advice is to buy a tour directly from City Wonderers. In this case you will be safe from a mistakes of the La Vacanza Travel staff.

Daniel was an outstanding tour guide with good energy, fantastic story telling skills, knowledge and loads of experience, and he was nice to the kids. The other guide Sayit was good too. Both were entertaining and Daniel was very funny. I highly recommend this tour to Mont St Michel for the whole family! Ps: Happy birthday Daniel!

Great day trip with the family to Mont Saint Michel. The tour guides did a great job making a 4 hour one way trip seem much less painful then it sounds. Recommended to time to grab lunch from one of the many restaurants as the food is amazing.
