UNESCO-listed since 1979, Mont-Saint-Michel welcomes 3.5 million visitors a year. Most arrive on group tour buses, on imposed schedules. The Mercedes S-Class with a private chauffeur transforms this day into a calm heritage experience, without crowds, without constraints.
Mont-Saint-Michel is one of the great long-distance destinations from Paris for American, British and Asian travellers. For many, it is the second iconic site after Versailles on a trip to France. Our full-day package (14 hours door-to-door) includes the outbound journey, drop-off at the shuttle car park (private vehicles can no longer drive onto the rock since the project to restore its maritime character in 2014), chauffeur waiting time, and the return.
