Morning, meet your guide at your accommodation in Bayeux. Then, board your comfortable, air conditioned vehicle and begin your private full day tour to Mont Saint Michel from Bayeux, a UNESCO World Heritage listed Site.
The Mont Saint Michel is a rocky island off the coast of Normandy, on the English Channel, and is one of the best Normandy private 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 was linked to the mainland by a bridge that gets flooded during high tides a few times a year only.
Start by traveling from Bayeux to Mont Saint Michel, which you will access via a shuttle (scheduled departures) and the bridge by local requirements. While on the road, take it all in and observe the beauty of the Normandy landscape.
You will be taken to the abbey itself, at the very top of the mount where the Benedictine Abbey is located. During this walking tour, the history of its construction will be explained in detail by your knowledgeable guide while you are there, make sure to snap some pictures of the amazing views on the surrounding bay! After the visit of the abbey, freely explore the town at your own pace and bring back some souvenirs for friends and family. Further questions about the history or the architecture of the Mont Saint Michel, your private guide will remain available for you.
