Description
  • Embarquez pour une excursion d'une journée palpitante au départ de Bayeux pour visiter l'un des monuments les plus emblématiques de France !
  • DANS UN PREMIER TEMPS, NOUS VIENDRONS VOUS CHERCHER A BAYEUX
  • Nous viendrons vous chercher à un point de rendez-vous situé au centre de Bayeux. Avant le début de la visite, votre guide expérimenté vous présentera la région et les différents sites que vous verrez. Lors de cette excursion d'une journée complète consacrée au monument le plus étonnant de cette partie du nord de la France, le Mont Saint Michel. Montez ensuite à bord de votre véhicule climatisé et commencez votre route vers le sud de la Normandie.
  • ENSUITE VOYAGER DANS LE SUD DE LA NORMANDIE
  • Le Mont Saint Michel, joyau gothique remarquable classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, est une île au large des côtes de la Normandie, dans la Manche, et constitue l'une des meilleures visites de Normandie que vous pouvez choisir. Il est situé à environ 1 kilomètre du rivage et se trouve dans une baie qui connaît certaines des plus grandes marées d'Europe. Il y a quelques années, il a été relié au continent par un pont qui est inondé lors des marées hautes quelques fois par an seulement.
  • La première église fut construite sur le mont en 709 à la demande de l'archange Michel. Quelques siècles plus tard, un petit groupe de bénédictins s'y installa définitivement et l'église fut agrandie. Le premier monastère fut creusé dans la roche au XIe siècle et s'agrandit progressivement au cours des siècles suivants. Au Moyen-Âge, il est rapidement devenu une destination importante pour les pèlerins, tout comme Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle en Espagne.
  • VISITEZ L'ABBAYE BENEDICTINE AVEC VOTRE GUIDE
  • La construction de l'abbaye du Mont-Saint-Michel telle que nous la connaissons aujourd'hui s'est achevée aux XIIIe et XIVe siècles, et le grand chœur a été remplacé au XVe siècle. Ces siècles de projets architecturaux nous ont laissé un monument magnifique, aujourd'hui qualifié de « Merveille du monde occidental ». Il est également classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO.
  • Lors de votre excursion d'une journée au Mont Saint-Michel, notre sympathique chauffeur et guide anglophone vous emmènera de Bayeux au Mont Saint-Michel, auquel vous accéderez via une navette et le pont selon les exigences locales. Sur la route, assurez-vous de tout admirateur et d'observer la beauté du littoral normand.
  • Notre visite du Mont Saint Michel vous mènera ensuite jusqu'à l'abbaye elle-même, tout en haut du mont. Suivez votre guide lors d'une visite à pied. L'histoire de sa construction vous sera expliquée en détail et pendant que vous y êtes, n'oubliez pas de prendre quelques photos de la vue imprenable sur la baie environnante !
  • LE MONT SAINT MICHEL EST AUSSI UNE PETITE VILLE ANIMÉE
  • Après la visite de l'abbaye, profitez d'un temps libre pour découvrir la ville à votre rythme et rapporter quelques souvenirs pour vos proches. Votre guide vous proposera également de bons restaurants pour le déjeuner, adaptés à tous les budgets.
  • Si vous souhaitez vous faire plaisir, le restaurant de la Mère Poulard est probablement le plus célèbre du mont. Il a acquis sa réputation grâce à sa recette unique d'omelette soufflée. Il vaut le détour et est un incontournable lors d'une excursion d'une journée au Mont Saint Michel, mais gardez à l'esprit que vous aurez besoin de beaucoup de temps car le restaurant est très populaire auprès des visiteurs. Cette visite du Mont Saint Michel part d'un endroit central le matin et vous déposera au même endroit le soir.
  • Nos autres excursions d'une journée au départ de Bayeux :
  •  Nous organisons également des visites de groupe et des visites privées au départ de Paris et des excursions à terre au départ du Havre vers tous les principaux sites de batailles, plages du débarquement, cimetières et mémoriaux liés aux batailles de Normandie, y compris le cimetière américain de Colleville sur Mer. Nos excursions d'une journée en Normandie comprennent des visites guidées de Sword Beach, Juno Beach et Omaha Beach. D'autres destinations incluent le Mont Saint Michel au départ de Bayeux. Toutes nos excursions peuvent être effectuées en excursion d'une journée au départ de Paris. Nos services couvrent à la fois la Normandie et la Bretagne.
  • Embark on a thrilling day trip from Bayeux  to visit one of France's most iconic monuments!
  • AT FIRST, WE WILL COME AND PICK YOU UP IN BAYEUX
  • First we will come and pick you up at a centrally located meeting point in Bayeux. Before the start of the tour, your knowledgeable guide will introduce you to the area and to the different sites that you will be seeing. On this full day tour dedicated to the most stunning monument of this part of Northern France, Mont Saint Michel. Then board your air conditioned vehicle and begin to make your way towards southern Normandy.
  • THEN TRAVEL TO SOUTHERN NORMANDY
  • The Unesco World Heritage Listed, Remarkable Gothic Jewel Mont Saint Michel is an island off the coast of Normandy, in the English Channel, and is one of the best Normandy tours you can choose. It is located about 1 kilometer from the shore and sits in a bay that sees some of the biggest tides in Europe. A few years ago, it got linked to the mainland by a bridge that gets flooded during high tides a few times a year only.
  • The first church was built on the mount in 709 at the request of Archange Michael. A couple of hundred years later, a small group of Benedictines settled there permanently and the church was enlarged. The first monastery was carved in the rock in the 11th century and gradually got bigger and bigger over the following centuries. In the medieval time, it quickly became an important destination for pilgrims, just like Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
  • VISIT THE BENEDICTINE ABBEY WITH YOUR GUIDE
  • The construction of the mont saint michel abbey as we know it nowadays was finished in the 13th and 14th centuries, and the grand chancel was replaced in the 15th century. Those hundreds of years of architectural prowesses have left us with a magnificent monument, now referred as the “Wonder of the Western World”. It is also a UNESCO world heritage site.
  • During your day trip to Mont St Michel, our friendly driver, English-speaking guide will take you from Bayeux to the Mont Saint Michel, that you will access via a shuttle and the bridge in accordance with local requirements. While on the road, make sure to take it all in and observe the beauty of the Normandy coastline.
  • Our Mont Saint Michel tour will then take you to the abbey itself, at the very top of the mount. Follow your guide on a walking tour. The history of its construction will be explained in detail and while you are there, make sure to snap some pictures of the amazing views on the surrounding bay!
  • MONT SAINT MICHEL IS ALSO A LIVELY SMALL TOWN
  • After the visit of the abbey, enjoy some free time to explore the town at your own pace and bring back some souvenirs for friends and family. Your guide will also suggest some great restaurants for lunch, suitable for all budgets.
  • If you want to indulge, the Mère Poulard restaurant is probably the most famous on the mount. It gained its reputation thanks to its unique omelette soufflée recipe. It is well worth a visit and a must-try when on a Mont Saint Michel day tour but keep in mind you will need a large amount of time as the restaurant is so popular with visitors. This tour of Mont Saint Michel departs from a central location in the morning and will drop you off at the same location in the evening.
  • Our other day trips departing from Bayeux:
  • We also organise group tours and private tours from Paris and shore excursions from Le Havre to all the major battles sites, d day beaches, cemeteries and memorials relating to the battles of Normandy including the American cemetery in Colleville sur Mer. Our full day tours in Normandy include Guided tours to Sword Beach, Juno Beach and Omaha Beach. Other destinations include Mont Saint Michel from Bayeux.

Description
  • Embark on a thrilling day trip from Bayeux  to visit one of France's most iconic monuments!
  • AT FIRST, WE WILL COME AND PICK YOU UP IN BAYEUX
  • First we will come and pick you up at a centrally located meeting point in Bayeux. Before the start of the tour, your knowledgeable guide will introduce you to the area and to the different sites that you will be seeing. On this full day tour dedicated to the most stunning monument of this part of Northern France, Mont Saint Michel. Then board your air conditioned vehicle and begin to make your way towards southern Normandy.
  • THEN TRAVEL TO SOUTHERN NORMANDY
  • The Unesco World Heritage Listed, Remarkable Gothic Jewel Mont Saint Michel is an island off the coast of Normandy, in the English Channel, and is one of the best Normandy tours you can choose. It is located about 1 kilometer from the shore and sits in a bay that sees some of the biggest tides in Europe. A few years ago, it got linked to the mainland by a bridge that gets flooded during high tides a few times a year only.
  • The first church was built on the mount in 709 at the request of Archange Michael. A couple of hundred years later, a small group of Benedictines settled there permanently and the church was enlarged. The first monastery was carved in the rock in the 11th century and gradually got bigger and bigger over the following centuries. In the medieval time, it quickly became an important destination for pilgrims, just like Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
  • VISIT THE BENEDICTINE ABBEY WITH YOUR GUIDE
  • The construction of the mont saint michel abbey as we know it nowadays was finished in the 13th and 14th centuries, and the grand chancel was replaced in the 15th century. Those hundreds of years of architectural prowesses have left us with a magnificent monument, now referred as the “Wonder of the Western World”. It is also a UNESCO world heritage site.
  • During your day trip to Mont St Michel, our friendly driver, English-speaking guide will take you from Bayeux to the Mont Saint Michel, that you will access via a shuttle and the bridge in accordance with local requirements. While on the road, make sure to take it all in and observe the beauty of the Normandy coastline.
  • Our Mont Saint Michel tour will then take you to the abbey itself, at the very top of the mount. Follow your guide on a walking tour. The history of its construction will be explained in detail and while you are there, make sure to snap some pictures of the amazing views on the surrounding bay!
  • MONT SAINT MICHEL IS ALSO A LIVELY SMALL TOWN
  • After the visit of the abbey, enjoy some free time to explore the town at your own pace and bring back some souvenirs for friends and family. Your guide will also suggest some great restaurants for lunch, suitable for all budgets.
  • If you want to indulge, the Mère Poulard restaurant is probably the most famous on the mount. It gained its reputation thanks to its unique omelette soufflée recipe. It is well worth a visit and a must-try when on a Mont Saint Michel day tour but keep in mind you will need a large amount of time as the restaurant is so popular with visitors. This tour of Mont Saint Michel departs from a central location in the morning and will drop you off at the same location in the evening.
  • Our other day trips departing from Bayeux:
  • We also organise group tours and private tours from Paris and shore excursions from Le Havre to all the major battles sites, d day beaches, cemeteries and memorials relating to the battles of Normandy including the American cemetery in Colleville sur Mer. Our full day tours in Normandy include Guided tours to Sword Beach, Juno Beach and Omaha Beach. Other destinations include Mont Saint Michel from Bayeux. All our tours can be done as a day trip from Paris. Our services cover both Normandy and Brittany.

Description
  • EMBARK ON A THRILLING DAY TRIP FROM BAYEUX TO ONE OF FRANCE’S MOST ICONIC MONUMENTS!
  • AT FIRST, WE WILL COME AND PICK YOU UP IN BAYEUX
  • First we will come and pick you up at a centrally located meeting point in Bayeux. Before the start of the tour, your knowledgeable guide will introduce you to the area and to the different sites that you will be seeing. On this full day tour dedicated to the most stunning monument of this part of Northern France, Mont Saint Michel. Then board your air conditioned vehicle and begin to make your way towards southern Normandy.
  • THEN TRAVEL TO SOUTHERN NORMANDY
  • The Unesco World Heritage Listed, Remarkable Gothic Jewel Mont Saint Michel is an island off the coast of Normandy, in the English Channel, and is one of the best Normandy tours you can choose. It is located about 1 kilometer from the shore and sits in a bay that sees some of the biggest tides in Europe. A few years ago, it got linked to the mainland by a bridge that gets flooded during high tides a few times a year only.
  • The first church was built on the mount in 709 at the request of Archange Michael. A couple of hundred years later, a small group of Benedictines settled there permanently and the church was enlarged. The first monastery was carved in the rock in the 11th century and gradually got bigger and bigger over the following centuries. In the medieval time, it quickly became an important destination for pilgrims, just like Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
  • VISIT THE BENEDICTINE ABBEY WITH YOUR GUIDE
  • The construction of the mont saint michel abbey as we know it nowadays was finished in the 13th and 14th centuries, and the grand chancel was replaced in the 15th century. Those hundreds of years of architectural prowesses have left us with a magnificent monument, now referred as the “Wonder of the Western World”. It is also a UNESCO world heritage site.
  • During your day trip to Mont St Michel, our friendly driver, English-speaking guide will take you from Bayeux to the Mont Saint Michel, that you will access via a shuttle and the bridge in accordance with local requirements. While on the road, make sure to take it all in and observe the beauty of the Normandy coastline.
  • Our Mont Saint Michel tour will then take you to the abbey itself, at the very top of the mount. Follow your guide on a walking tour. The history of its construction will be explained in detail and while you are there, make sure to snap some pictures of the amazing views on the surrounding bay!
  • MONT SAINT MICHEL IS ALSO A LIVELY SMALL TOWN
  • After the visit of the abbey, enjoy some free time to explore the town at your own pace and bring back some souvenirs for friends and family. Your guide will also suggest some great restaurants for lunch, suitable for all budgets.
  • If you want to indulge, the Mère Poulard restaurant is probably the most famous on the mount. It gained its reputation thanks to its unique omelette soufflée recipe. It is well worth a visit and a must-try when on a Mont Saint Michel day tour but keep in mind you will need a large amount of time as the restaurant is so popular with visitors.
