Blue Fox is very well-organized , and I enjoyed my experience from online booking to the day of traveling. Our guide was a Normandy local and was very knowledgeable about the area history. I especially enjoyed his navigation throughout the morning ride and as we approached the destination, which added value to my experience. We were given sufficient time to explore the abbey and the entire town/mt. after he led the group to the Abby, although I believe our tour got cut slightly shorter due to the need to beat the post-holiday traffic back to Paris. I wish to have the opportunity to add a quick stop on the shuttle ride between the parking lot and the island, so I could snap a few pictures of the famous river+sheep view from the viewing deck (there is a designated shuttle stop, and I was not aware of it until time to leave). I opt to get crepes for lunch to save time for a walk on the bridge, because I truly think the view from afar is more magical. We got caught in the post-holiday traffic and spent much longer time back to Paris. Kudos to the tour guide who was positive and strategized potty/snack breaks for us. I would travel with Blue Fox on my next visit and would recommend it to anyone!

I've used this company before for a small group trip to Giverny and they do a very nice job. The vans are comfortable, and the guides are very well informed and very accommodating to the group. The drive there actually went pretty quickly, and they stop for a break along the way. We thought we had plenty of time to explore as well as try La Mere Poulard for lunch. On the way back the cider tasting was a lot of fun. Also, after drinking all the cider, it's easy to fall asleep on the way back. The only issue we had with our day was when we got to Mont St. Michel the abbey was closed, and we were not able to take the tour. Later that day I received an email from Blue Fox that they requested partial refund for the tour which I still have not received. Overall, I'd recommend this group and would use them again.

Sara was very helpful and coordinated the day well. The weather at mont saint michel was quite cold, rainy and windy but she had umbrellas in the car that really helped!

Had an amazing trip to Mont St. Michel in the 8-passenger van with Blue Fox Travel! I didn't want to take a large bus to the MSM so this worked out perfectly. Santiago was our guide and he got us there within 3 hrs. 45 mins from the cafe in Paris. (La Flamme). That included a rest stop break mid way. We arrived well ahead of all the tour buses and got to the island via the shuttle in no time. He walked us through the town and gave us some history before giving us our tickets (with audiogude) for the abbey entrance. From there, we were pretty much on our own, but the self guided tour was fine, and it really only took about an hour to walk through the abbey anyway. I had plenty of time to eat a lunch that I had packed and walk around the shops before walking back to the parking lot (about 1.5 miles). All in all, I was on the island for almost 3.5 hours. The day started out foggy but thankfully the sun came out and it was a picture perfect day on MSM! I am so glad I did this trip to cross this wonderful abbey off my bucket list! Knowing that the 8-passenger van is more expensive than a larger minibus, I still feel it was worth it to avoid the crowds and make better time from Paris to MSM. It is a long journey to MSM from Paris and back, but SO WORTH IT. I appreciate having this option and would highly recommend. Santiago was a fantastic guide too! Thank you Blue Fox Travel!
