Normandy and Mont Saint-Michel tours put the abbey ticket in the fare, so you only choose where to start. From Bayeux you get three to five hours on the Mont; from Paris the coach day gives you about three.
The longest time on the Mont from Bayeux: about five hours, two in the abbey with a national guide and the ticket paid, then the village. It leaves Place du Québec at 8 am with eight seats.
From $185 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
From Porte Maillot in Paris by coach, fourteen hours door to door: about an hour in the abbey with an audio app, ticket paid, then two hours free in the village. A tour leader all day; no hotel pickup.
From $135 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Pickup at selected Bayeux hotels, then down the coast to the bay: a guided walk on the ramparts and through the abbey, entry paid, and free time in the village. About three hours on the Mont; back by 4 pm.

See this tripA Mont Saint-Michel tour is a guided day from Bayeux or Paris with the transport and the abbey ticket in one fare. The village on the rock is a commune, free to walk without a ticket; the abbey at the top is not, and it is the part these tours pay for. You get a guided walk, an abbey guide or an audio app, and time on your own in the village.
From Bayeux the day takes seven or eight hours and gives you three to five hours on the Mont. From Paris the coach takes fourteen hours for about three. One private day from Paris adds the American Cemetery and Omaha Beach before the abbey, in fourteen and a half hours.
On its own the abbey costs €13 from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, and €16 in the April to September season. Every fare here includes it, so you walk in with your group.
The shared Bayeux day walks you round the ramparts and through the abbey with your driver-guide. The five-hour day brings a national guide. The coach from Paris gives you an audio app in ten languages instead, and the private Paris day adds the abbey's own guide.
The coach from Paris notes that a free shuttle runs from the coach park to the Mont, with waits in spring and summer, and that the walk takes 40 minutes. On a tour, the driver handles the parking and you head for the shuttle.
From Bayeux, the Mont is the obvious second day after a day on the beaches, from the same square or the same hotel.
Where you start decides how long you get on the Mont. Here are the shared and private options side by side.
| Shared from Bayeux | Private from Bayeux | Coach from Paris | Private from Paris | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Length of the day | 7 to 8 hours | 8 hours | 14 hours | 14.5 hours |
| Time on the Mont | 3 to 5 hours | Most of the day | About 3 hours | 3 hours at the abbey |
| In the abbey | A guided walk | Your own driver-guide | An audio app | An abbey guide |
| Group | 8 at most | Your party, up to 8 | Up to 30 | Your party |
| Price a person | $178 to $185 | $428 | $135 | $667 |
| Refund | 24 hours or 6 days ahead | 6 days ahead | 24 hours ahead | 24 hours ahead |
If you are in Bayeux, take a Bayeux day: more time on the Mont, less on the road. If you are in Paris and want the Mont alone, the coach is the cheapest way there. Pair it with the beaches and you need either two days or the private Paris day.
Eight hours with a driver-guide: down the coast to the bay, the ramparts and the abbey with the ticket paid, then free time in the village. Back around 4 pm.
