What to expect
Your driver collects you from Paris early morning and handles the 350-kilometre journey west towards Normandy. Upon arrival, you'll have several hours to wander the island's labyrinthine streets at your own pace, taking in the granite buildings clinging to the rocky peak. The Abbey visit is self-directed with audio guide, allowing you to explore the cloisters, refectory, and church on your schedule. The return drive to Paris takes the afternoon and evening. Bring comfortable shoes and prepare for steep cobbled paths, particularly if visiting the Abbey.
