What you can expect

Set off on a memorable adventure to explore two of France's most renowned landmarks in a single day. This tour takes you from Paris to Omaha Beach, a pivotal site of the D-Day landings, and the stunning Mont Saint-Michel, one of the most iconic monuments in the country. As you travel, you’ll uncover the deep historical significance, cultural heritage, and awe-inspiring scenery that make these destinations a must-visit for anyone touring France.

Your journey begins with a departure from Paris by bus. After a brief rest stop, you’ll arrive at Omaha Beach, one of the five beaches where the Normandy landings took place during World War II. During a 90-minute visit, your guide will walk you through this historic location, explaining its crucial role in the liberation of Europe. You’ll see commemorative sculptures honouring the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for freedom and gain insight into the key events of June 6, 1944, that forever changed the course of history.

Following the visit to Omaha Beach, the tour continues to Mont Saint-Michel, a striking island fortress topped by a magnificent Gothic abbey that dates back to the 8th century. A UNESCO World Heritage site, Mont Saint-Michel is celebrated for its medieval architecture and breathtaking vistas. Upon arrival, you’ll have some free time for lunch. One of the culinary highlights of the area is the famous soufflé omelette, which we recommend trying at La Salicorne restaurant in La Caserne—a local speciality not to be missed.

After lunch, you’ll explore the Mont Saint-Michel Abbey, a magnificent structure that looks like something out of a storybook. For centuries, it has been a pilgrimage site and today it remains a fascinating blend of history, spirituality, and Gothic art. From the abbey's terraces, you’ll be treated to spectacular views of the surrounding tidal plains, and you’ll have time to explore its intricate halls and chapels. Additionally, you can wander through the charming medieval streets around the abbey, soaking in the local culture and atmosphere.
