Our guide was Fantastic! Gave excellent instructions. The Abbey is absolutely breathtaking. Crowd was large - didn’t interfere so much with the tour but shopping afterwards was very crowded. Our guide said the crowd is much worse at times. A very very long day. Left at 7:15 am & lunch was not allowed until after the tour at 2:00 pm. My biggest issue was that I signed up for an English tour & the guide spent 1/2 the time speaking English & the other half speaking Spanish as we had Spanish speaking on the tour. Also the group was too large in such a crowded space. Glad we went but perhaps not the best way to see the place.

Without a doubt the guide, Crystal. They took great care of us and made sure we understood what we were looking at Mille mercis!

The tour guide. Franck is handsome, kind and helpful. Recommended his tour. Mont saint-michel day tour is too short to cover the whole area. Advice to stay one night to enjoy the small town

Great tour overall. The bus ride is loooooong. Bring things to do. Zero leg room on the bus. The island is amazing. The guide was pretty good. Dealt with three different languages, so it made it long. We loved the restaurant LeTriPot. Great food and fast service.

As a family of six, we had a very good time. Our guide was exceptional. She was very knowledgeable and did a great job interacting with our four boys. The bus travel is broken in two 2 hour blocks. Time at Mont Saint Michel was well organized. We strongly recommend taking a guided tour of the complex given the rich history.
