While on the road, take in panoramic views of the Normandy coast line! Our Mont Saint-Michel tour will then take you to the abbey itself, at the very top of the mount.

Very disappointed
Julie_N, Jul 2024
I was profoundly disappointed in this tour. Honestly, I misread the fine print that said 1 hour guided tour of the Abbey and 2 hours of self-tour. If I had realized that this tour only provided 3 hours at MSM, I would have never selected it. Two hours of self-tour is nowhere near long enough to tour the whole of Mont Saint Michel and this limited time was not worth the > 300 euros. I was heartbroken to be leaving at 2.30pm in the afternoon.
Responses from CaroleOphorus
Dear Julie,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. As you noted, the details about the tour, including the 1-hour guided tour of the Abbey and the 2 hours of self-tour, were provided on the product page. We strive to ensure that all our customers have a clear understanding of the itinerary before booking.
We understand that Mont Saint Michel is a place rich with history and beauty, and we regret that the allotted time was insufficient for you to explore it fully.
Please, next time, pay close attention to these details on your next trips, as a 1-star review feels unfair for us given our transparency about the service provided.
Best,
Kevin from Ophorus team
Great guide, excellent tour
Shane_M, May 2024
Mael was an excellent guide. He gave tons of great information before, during and after the tour. His communication skills were outstanding and very clear. He constantly ensured everyone stayed together and understood meeting points and times. He made this trip extremely educational and enjoyable. On our next tour we could be so lucky to get a guide as passionate about his profession as Mael. Thank you!
All day tour of Mont-Saint Michel which just flew by

Charles is a delightful person who was easy to be with for our whole day tour, and of greater importance than his personality was his knowledge and excellent communications skills. He is an excellent teacher. We learned a great deal about the history or Normandy and even more about Mont-Saint Michel. Although MSM is an extremely crowded tourist site it is still worth visiting. Truly magnificent.
Excellent Tour of D-Day

Matthew was knowledgeable in the history of WWII which added great depth to the visit. His focus was on our group seeing the most in the amount of time we had available which I appreciated.
Wonderful experience despite the criewds

Valentine was excellent. He was patient as there were crowds and made adaptions! He had a lot of knowledge on the history and timelines. Excellent English and pace.
