  • Description

    Step back in time with a visit to Mont Saint Michel, the legendary abbey that has captured the imaginations of travelers and pilgrims for centuries. Built on a rocky outcrop overlooking the sea, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a true masterpiece of medieval architecture, with its towering walls, narrow streets, and soaring spires. But that's not all! Your day trip also includes visits to two other historic towns - Dinan and Saint-Malo. 

    Dinan boasts a beautifully preserved medieval center, with charming half-timbered houses, cobbled streets, and a spectacular castle. You will have free time to explore this delightful town on your own discovering hidden corners and local secrets.
