What a guide!
We have been on many tours but our tour guide, David was, by far the best we have been exposed to. From the moment we sat down (in a very clean Mercedes van) until we returned to our hotel 15 hours later it truly was a learning experience filled with history on every location we visited. I'm not sure how someone this young can absorb so much information but the kid knocked it out of the park.

The beautiful Mont St....
The beautiful Mont St. Michele is so overrun with crowds that it is hard to see and enjoy. We had booked a private tour for 2 people, and had I known what to expect, I would have requested an early morning departure to see it before it got overcrowded. As it was, we arrived around 10:30 a.m. and most definitely did not beat the crowds. I wish the tour company had alerted us, and suggested an earlier departure time. Not their fault, but we didn't know any better.
Operator response
Dear Jill, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience visiting Mont St. Michel. We apologize that your visit was impacted by the crowds. For private tours, we always encourage our customers to let us know if they prefer an earlier departure to avoid peak times. We strive to provide the best experience possible and will make a point to advise our guests about the benefits of early morning tours more proactively. Next time, please don't hesitate to request an earlier start. Thank you again for your valuable input, and we hope to have the opportunity to offer you a more enjoyable experience in the future. Best regards, Kevin from Ophorus team

Perseverance
We enjoyed our tour very much! My 77 year old Mom with back issues made it all the way up. We very much appreciated the chance to stop on occasion on the way up to give her a rest. Our tour guide Mael was very knowledgeable and patient, he’s a wonderful tour guide!

Knowledgeable and personal.
Our guide Stephen was friendly, knowledgeable and stayed with us throughout the entire tour. He explained everything well during the trip, and threw in additional facts regarding the history of the surrounding areas during our drive. He did a great job and we definitely recommend him for this tour.

Impressive building that is 1000 years old.
Great knowledge of the history of St. Michel by our guide, Valentine. The trip is about 1.5 hours from Bayeux where we stayed, but well worth the trip.
B
GREAT
Excellent. We had a "private" tour. Since we were the only ones booked. Thank you to Ophorus for still running the day trip for just us 2. Several other companies would not. We had Steven from Ireland. He was knowledgeable and friendly. It was not crowed at all at the sight since it was Feb and a Thursday. We had a wonderful day. We would defiantly use this tour company again!

Amazing private tour on Mont St. Michel
Normandy History Tours Jonathan was an awesome tour guide!!! It was a beautiful day and had a really great time. Jonathan is very flexible and just made sure that we had a great time in the abbey and getting there and returning back to Bayeux. Jonathan can communicate very good English to us. He is extremely knowledgeable on Mont St. Michel. I would extremely recommend Jonathan and his tour company.
