      Brilliant day trip, comfortable shuttle transfer. Our trip also included a guided tour of the abbey, this made our trip! Our guide Theo was very knowledgeable and helpful. Great guided tour with some time alone to have lunch and a wander.

      I absolutely recommend this activity. We had a wonderful driver, Pascal, who provided us with so many interesting facts about the Abbey as well as history about the surrounding area. He provided us with tips regarding access to the abbey including that it is better to walk and enjoy the scenery and views instead of taking the shuttle. We are so glad we listened to his advice. It is absolutely stunning.

      We had a wonderful trip and our driver was fantastic. He shared all kinds of information about Mont Saint-Michel and Normandy, as well as general conversation that was very enjoyable. The shuttle was also good, nothing to comment. We would have liked an extra hour at Mont Saint-Michel - we managed to visit the abbey, go through town and see everything, and eat lunch, but it all felt very rushed. Just a little more time would have been nice. The price was also quite high: the abbey tickets cost 13€, meaning we paid over 80€/person for the ride.

      My senior citizen parents and I took this van ride from Bayeux to Mont Saint Michel and our driver/guide was very friendly and enthusiastic. He gave us great tips to get the most with our money and explained the folklore and local culture. The van is spacious and comfortable. The roads are scenic and the autumn colors were beautiful. My Dad is not very mobile so when we got to the visitor center he opted to take the shuttle and Mom and I took the walking path. The path was flat and a gentle 35 minute walk to the entrance of the village. The Abbey and Village were very interesting. There were several stairs up to the Abbey, I saw many seniors taking a rest when needed. I’m glad Dad saved his energy with the shuttle. The headsets were inexpensive to rent but a nice option to go at your own pace. There are also free brochures in multiple languages so if you opt out of the headsets, you can read the description of each room you pass through. Our train to Paris was at 5:41 pm and we arrived back in Bayeux with plenty of time to grab a drink or snack for our next trip. We were able to stow our luggage in the van and get dropped off at the train station so this was a very convenient and laid back trip for our last day in Normandy. I lost my wedding band somewhere between the bathroom at the Welcome center and the walking path so I spent a lot of time retracing my footsteps. That took away the joy of being here and present in the moment. I think you will enjoy this trip if you sign up, and keep an eye out for my ring!

      We took this tour in early October. We meet our guide Nadege in Bayeux. Our first issue was finding parking. She was kind to help us and another couple get to the train station and park. We were a total of 4 couples in a large Mercedes van. Tight but comfortable We had about 1.5 hour ride to Mont Saint Michel and she shared with stories of its history. Upon arrival it was rainy, she was prepared with umbrellas if you needed one. She escorted us through the shuttle process. We went up through the village to the Abby. It did keep raining and it was a low tide. We ate lunch in the village which was nice. The Abby church was interesting but no art and the architecture was plain and functional. She took us through the Abby and we explored the village on our own. We recommend the tour with Nadege

      This shuttle trip was very good! Maggie our driver was fantastic and patient with us. It is well worth the money as you also get an abbey ticket. You get plenty of time on the island. My only qualm was it was SO packed in August, even on a Tuesday. Maggie did warn us that Mont St Michel is especially busy in August. We were able to get Abbey access quickly with the provided ticket, and inside the Abbey was not too crowded in the morning. However, the medieval street and around the island was so packed you could hardly move. We really just explored the Abbey and then explored the beach. It was fun to walk in the surrounding sand and explore the castle from the exterior. The view is just stunning as well. If you visit in summer, I’d advise to wear comfortable walking sandals so that you can enjoy the beaches. :) If you bring shoes as we did, bring Kleenex or wipes, and a water bottle, so you can rinse and dry your feet before putting your shoes back on. Also, bring coins!

      Bayeux to Mt Saint Michel Roundtrip Transfer with Abbey entrance
      Only giving any stars because our driver was great and the place was worth visiting. (We aren’t faulting our driver. They did let us know after we were already in motion that we we only purchased a ride). This is genuinely NOTHING more than a glorified taxi ride for 8 people. There is no “commentary”. Not a single tidbit of information about Mont Saint Michel except to avoid the overpriced omelets (we learned to also avoid the sandwiches. The first shop on the right sold us rancid ham sandwiches…inedible…no refunds) But when we signed up for a $114 per person “transfer” with “commentary” from a “knowledgeable driver” we thought that meant that we’d get some information during the ride then be left to explore on our own with the new “knowledge” we thought would be shared in the “commentary” , in mind. We chatted about random things here and there on the way, like regional foods and the driver pointed out when MSM came into view , but that was about it. Thankfully there was enough signal for us to google information, which is much less fun when we expected “knowledgeable” “commentary” Local hotels offer daily shuttles for MUCH less. And our family could have gotten a private *round trip* Uber for HALF THE PRICE. Either spend a bit more and get the guided tour and actually learn a bit about this neat place or save a bunch of money and get a hotel shuttle or Uber. We’ve purchased a LOT of tours through Viator and this one has been the ost disappointing in terms of what we paid vs what we got. What a shame.

      I thought I just booked a shuttle ride with Abbey tickets. We got that and Mont St Michel was awesome. The added bonus was getting a driver called Matt from Orphorus tours who entertained us there and back with funny, sad, and interesting stories covering lots of topics but particularly D Day. His knowledge was amazing and I wont forget this entertaining trip.

      Highly recommended!! An amazing experience. Not to be missed. Walking in the footsteps of Church and State royalty. Our guide was wonderful, so well informed. Ample information, answered all our questions. Pick up was easy in the center of Bayeux near the Cathedral. Not sure why the notice states to bring the passport, was never asked for nor was any ID. The ride was 90 mins each way. Once you arrive there is a 25 mins shuttle from the parking lot. Bring water. Lunch was a challenge but there are plenty of options to choose from. Wear comfortable shoes, there is A LOT of uphill walking! Be aware, this is a crowded location due to the fantastic attraction.

      When staying in Normandy, a tour of Mont Saint Michel is a must. Even though the weather on the day of our visit was overcast and cool, our very knowledgeable guide, Charles, made the visit very pleasant and informative. Very highly recommended.

      Our guide Valentino was outstanding! Very knowledgeable and shared a lot of insights into the Abbey but also stories on art pieces in the Abbey! He spent extra time with us so the tour never felt rushed!We are 69 and 73 and it was a lot of steps to climb but guide took lots of breaks as walked up! There were 8 in our van and that was just right! He even dropped us off at train station in Bayeux so we could catch our train back to Paris. I would totally recommend this tour and guide on the must see list for tours from Bayeux and Normandy region! Lunch is a challenge in Abbey village as small restaurants and we bought Penni to eat but no places to sit and eat lunch. I had read on reviews to pack your own lunch that might be good idea but no place to sit outside to eat. Had plenty of time after tour to eat and shop but tables all full in restaurants ! Would be nice if abbey could have picnic tables near entrance!

      This was a wonderful small group tour to Mont Saint-Michel. Our guides were excellent, relating a lot of great information on the ride and within the site. We had plenty of time to explore on our own, take photos, and get lunch. I traveled with older family members and the guides were great about taking things slowly so they could manage the stairs. The whole process was very smooth. Highly recommend!
