This 5-night/6-day tour takes you from Granville to Pontorson, bringing around the beautiful bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, and finishing up in the lovely and picturesque countryside of Brittany and Normandy. Granville is a Norman coastal town, located a stone's throw away from the Anglo-Norman island of Jersey, and is conveniently serviced by train from Paris, Caen, and Rennes. From beginning to
end, the mesmerizing Mont-Saint-Michel and its towering abbey will
be within sight, except for those memorable gastronomic gaps and other
spectacular sites that dot your route, such as the fishing port of
Cancale and medieval Saint-Malo. We have kept the mileage to a minimum
to better enable you to visit and savour this tour's extraordinary
sites and soak up the relaxing and refreshing rural life of this part
of France. |
