More about Mont Saint-Michel

Situated on a tidal island, Mont Saint-Michel is the second most visited destination in France, as it is the most well-preserved, medieval site in Europe. Perched on a tiny rocky island, this town has a lot of history which you can learn about in your audio guide during the tour. Glance at the bay from the medieval abbey atop the island and enjoy the panoramic views. Stroll through the narrow alleys and go on an exploration spree where you can sample local items from the bakery, see interesting shops, and deep dive into stories about prisoners, tradesmen, and others.

Honfleur: The art and culture hub!

This harbor setting has inspired many artists for their art and the famous name that comes to mind is Claud Monet. This setting is so beautiful that artists like Gustave Courbet, and Eugène Boudin have created some of their best works, drawn by the scenic view. While at Honfleur, you can discover sites like the Old Port, where you can find houses originally built by wealthy merchants and shipowners. Today, these colorful houses are shops, cafes and restaurants. Place Sainte-Catherine, a popular square, surrounded by markets, and the Bell Tower, a tower susceptible to lightning strikes are something to admire. This port city is located on the west bank of the River Seine.
