Normandy & Mont Saint-Michel Escape - 2 days
< View Other Tours
Tour Overview
Starting in Paris and ending back in Paris, this two–day Normandy and Brittany escape blends medieval charm, dramatic coastlines and foodie treats. You’ll explore Rouen’s Gothic splendour and storied squares, then gaze at Étretat’s soaring white cliffs before wandering picture–perfect Honfleur. A Calvados tasting sets the tone for an evening near Mont Saint–Michel, where you’ll visit the abbey and enjoy sweeping bay views. Later, sample oysters in Cancale and take in wild seascapes at Pointe du Grouin. Round things off in Saint–Malo’s walled old town – think granite ramparts, corsair legends and cobbled lanes – before the relaxed drive back to the capital.
