Private tour of Mont Saint-Michel - I asked Mont Saint-Michel for a private tour. I was able to leisurely go sightseeing in a Benz V class. The Guides were only in English, but they were very helpful and enjoyable. I didn't go to Calvados because it was so crowded after the Olympics, but I had a good enough experience. I can recommend it.

Good excursion! Book without guide. - The whole family went, we were 6 people. We were accompanied by the driver Allex, very friendly, always willing to help. First we went to a very interesting place with special effects, dedicated to calvados. Then we had a tasting. Then we headed to Mont Saint-Michel. The driver took us to the abbey at the top of Mont Saint-Michel and handed us over to the local guide. The excursion was very interesting. Lunch was delicious, although it was not included in the price.

Private tour for reasonable price - we were saved! - Thank you for accepting our last-minute request. The tour we had originally planned suddenly cancelled on us the night before the experience. We were almost resigned to spending our 10th anniversary in Paris without any other plan. Then I found this operator that still accepted the booking and even offered a lower price. And we were saved! The tour was well organized, and the driver was very friendly. Thank you a million times. We would definitely recommend this experience.

Mont Saint Michel and Calvados experience - Even though we chose the option without the guide, our driver Magomed entertained us throughout the entire trip! He shared so much interesting information about life in France; he would make a great guide! The tour of Mont Saint Michel was very engaging as well. The local guide showed us the forbidden parts of the abbey. So, if I can recommend one thing - you can save money by choosing the option with just the driver. There will still be a guide at Mont Saint Michel anyway!

Must see when in France - There are no words to explain it; you need to see it for yourself. Thank you for organizing the trip for our big group of 10 people! The guide was incredible, and we made so many new discoveries, especially about European history. The Calvados and cider were delicious. We even bought some from the distillery! I definitely recommend it to everyone!

Amazing experience - This private tour was convenient with hotel pick-up/drop-off with a lovely guide (Victoria) and a driver (sorry, I can't spell his name). We enjoyed speaking with Victoria and the driver. They both made this tour worthwhile with their friendly attitude, positive mindset and professional behavior. I really commend the driver for being alert and patient with his safe driving skills. It was a long day but definitely worthwhile. The Calvados tour with tasting was a good introduction to Normandy (video and Steve's explanation), before heading on to Mont Saint Michel. Everything was well-organized. Be prepared - there are about 400 steps in ascending Mont Saint Michel. It is a physical journey. The tour guide at Mont Saint Michel was also very thorough and did a great job explaining the history and significance of the monastery. He described it as a pilgrimage of salvation for many pilgrims. It is a real marvel from a religious and reflective perspective. There is a lot to see and absorb at Mont Saint Michel. Time goes quickly and it may not feel like enough, but that is a function of wanting to stay as long as possible in such a peaceful place. Pro-tip: Pack some sandwiches and water / fruit to fuel up at Mont Saint Michel. Communication with the tour operator (Valerie) was timely and responsive. We recommend this tour if you value the convenience of a private tour with hotel pickup/drop off and prefer a more intimate / quiet setting than a bus. Victoria and the driver were superb. Thank you very much!!! You helped make France memorable.

Personalized Experience - We had a wonderful 2 day trip to Loire and Normandy. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and fun. We were able to exchange visiting Chateau Amboise to visiting Chateau Clos de Luce. We were very happy. Our driver was super - friendly and helpful. They made a great team that really took care of us.

Amazing - Amazing in geographical location and astonishing construction. It made me stunned and kept wondering how people in the ancient time could build this, especially the abbey … very impressive historical symbol.
