Went last Sunday with my sister and wow, Mont Saint Michel is just—magical??? The walk from the shuttle is longer than you think, so wear decent shoes. Weather was gray but honestly made the abbey look even more EPIC. We spent like half the time gawking at the views. Only bummer—sooo many people, felt like we were in a parade at times. Still, totally worth it!

Honestly, this was the HIGHLIGHT of our France vacation. Our guide Lucie was a legend—she told us ghost stories and pointed out weird little details I never would’ve noticed. The abbey is stunning, and I loved getting lost in the tiny alleyways. Only bummer: way too many souvenir shops selling the same stuff, lol.

We had a blast! It’s like stepping into a storybook or something. I went with my teen, he was ‘meh’ about the trip at first, but even he was impressed—took like 300 pics. The abbey is jaw-dropping and the little streets are so cute. Crowds were wild, but that didn’t ruin it. Def worth the early wakeup.

    Went solo and felt totally safe the whole time. Met a few other travelers on the shuttle over. The climb up is no joke but the payoff is insane—the view is UNREAL. Didn’t really eat at the restaurants, just grabbed a pastry. The abbey itself is so peaceful even with crowds.

    I’d been dreaming of visiting since I was a kid and it did not disappoint. The place feels otherworldly. Guide was friendly and cracked jokes the whole time. There’s a LOT of people but you find quiet spots if you look for them. Best part: sunset from the top. Unreal!
