The Worst Tour I have Ever Been On.

1.00I cannot begin to covey how awful this experience was. First, the tour guide was supposed to meet us at 8 am (ship docked at 7 am, we were odd and waiting by 7:30). He finally showed up at 9:20 and immediately announced that we probably wouldn't have time to see the abbey. Well, he certainly made sure of that by insisting that we stop for 45 minutes to get coffee that none of us wanted. So by the time we finally got to the Mont it was after noon. He then insisted we had to leave by 1 pm to get back before the ship left at 5 pm. When we objected, he told us we were welcome to take a taxi back, but he was leaving. So we left after less than an hour on the Mont. when I complained to Get Your Guide, they said he blamed it on the unusually heavy crowds. Yes, they were bad. But if we had gotten there at 10:30 rather than 12:15, they would have been less, and we would have had more time to deal with them. Then to add insult to injury he insisted on stopping at this liquor tasting stand, where he acted positively insulted when we didn't buy anything. That wasted another 45 minutes. So between the driver showing up late and the unnecessary stops he wasted almost 3 HOURS that could have been spent at Mont St Michel. I complained to Get Your Guide. They cancelled our booking retroactively and promise a full refund. It never came. I finally called, and after much back and forth, in spite of their promise of a full refund (which I had in writing) they final refunded half our money. I have used Get Your Guide in the past and was always happy with them, and recommended them to others, but this experience did rather sour me on them. And my advice is to stay far away from Normandy Tours.

5.00Allen was very prompt, very friendly. We opted for driver only, and he was exceptional. We finished early and contacted him, he was there to pick us up within 15 minutes. Would highly recommend
Le Mont Saint Michel was amazing!!

4.00The excursion was fine but it would have been better if the driver spoke English. We could not communicate at all.
Stunning

5.00Pick up was prompt and clearly defined. Safe driver. Adrien, our guide, was very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. Mont St Michel is a marvel worth the ride from Le Havre. Tip: Walk from the parking lot to the island. Go early to miss some of the crowds
Terrible local pick up service for sightseeing

1.00We booked a tour for 8 persons, but the car come pick up saying the car is to pick up 2 persons. At the end, the local travel agent got a local taxi and took us to Mt St Michel. The taxi driver is extremely helpful. But we had a very terrible squeezed 2 and 1/2 hour journey to and from Mt St Michel.

5.00Was exactly what we wanted. We docked at Le Havre and our ship did not offer an excursion so the 4 of us booked this. The driver was on time, car very comfortable and the trip smooth. We were dropped off right at the tram- no fuss! We decided not to have a guide because we enjoy the audio tapes and moving at our own pace. We finished early so the driver took us to a small town on the way home and we enjoyed exploring it for while. Would definitely do it this way again. (There were 4 adults so the cost was comparable to a shore excursion offered by ship- if they had one)
Perfect Tour.

5.00Great experience. We didn’t understand the Abbey is open the whole day and the time on the ticket is for the guided tour. The audio guides are great.
