Private Tour from Bayeux to Mont Saint Michel

Bayeux is an ideal starting point for a private excursion to Mont Saint Michel.

Your driver will collect you directly from your hotel or accommodation in Bayeux before travelling south through the Normandy countryside.

Upon arrival at Mont Saint Michel, you will have free time to explore the medieval village, walk through its narrow streets and visit the famous abbey.

The visit can usually be organised with approximately 2½ to 3 hours of free time at Mont Saint Michel depending on your schedule.

After your visit, your private driver will meet you for the return journey to Bayeux or continue toward another destination if your itinerary requires it.
