7.2-Day Normandy & Brittany Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 93 reviews · 2 days · from $588

2 days from Paris to Normandy D-Day beaches, Rouen, Honfleur, Saint-Malo, and Mont Saint-Michel, with an overnight in Caen.

“Enjoy seeing Normandy area & Mont st Michel very much. But there was not enough time in Normandy. We could have spent less time by Joan of arc area & more time in Omaha Beach to allow us to go to the museum and possibly see some of the exhibits not just from the bus. I felt we were being rushed at each location. Normandy is an important piece of history that needed to be seen at a different pace. Mont Saint Michel tour should have been done in the morning to avoid the crowds in the afternoon. Just a suggestion.”

Our tour went over the time scheduled and they still made sure we had a chance to see everything the tour stated! I truly would recommend booking with them. I can't say enough good things! If we ever get a chance to visit Colmar again we will most definitely book our tours through them! Thank you, again, Ana and Eric for such a wonderful experience!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 32 reviews · 2 days · from $560

Two days from Paris to Mont Saint-Michel and the Loire Valley castles, with a guided abbey visit, a 4-star Angers stay, and live bilingual guides.

“We recently took this tour to Mont Saint-Michel and the Loire Valley, and while there were a few highlights, overall, it was a frustrating experience. First, the positives: the guide for the second leg of our journey from after Mont Saint-Michel through the Loire Valley back to Paris was fantastic. She was professional, knowledgeable, and kind, which made the latter part of the trip much more enjoyable. The hotel in Angers was also great! Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. The rest of the tour was poorly managed. The bus driver refused to help with our luggage, even though portage was clearly included in the tour package. My husband had…”
