Two days from Paris to Normandy D-Day sites, Rouen and Honfleur, then Saint-Malo and Mont St-Michel, with hotel and meals included.

“I felt like we were constantly on a mission to get somewhere. If you were not fast enough or you wanted to stop to take a picture while walking she left you behind...not even clear explanations of where to meet up..People were constantly left behind to find their way to the next hotel! The bus on the way did not stop for a toilet break for 3 hours. The toilet on the bus was LOCKED so you couldn't use it! They changed the pick up and drop off location. They dropped us off in this dark location on the outside of Paris so they didn't have to drive into the…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 93 reviews · 2 days · from $588

A 2-day Normandy and Brittany coach tour from Paris with D-Day beaches, Rouen, Saint-Malo, Mont Saint-Michel, and a hotel night in Caen.

“Our guide was very good and worked hard. However the tour was both in English and Spanish. We would have preferred only English. She had to go so fast to get both languages in, it was hard to understand. We would not do a two language tour again. We were not told ahead that it would be two languages.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 32 reviews · 2 days · from $560

A 2-day bus tour from Paris to Mont Saint-Michel and the Loire castles, with guided visits, a 4-star hotel night, and English or Spanish guides.

“Mont St Michel was very impressive, but their tour information for tourists was poor. I had a problem with the shuttle bus system because there was no map showing the shuttle stop. Although my tour guide advised us to take a shuttle, the first comer speaking English to the area couldn’t get the reality on poor signs on the street. On the way to the parking lot, we met some French people, but no one can point where is the parking lot for bus. The worst thing was I couldn’t find my luggage in my bus. Just the bus driver asked me to search baggage. Finally my tour guide started…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 16 reviews · 2 days (approx.) · from $495Best value

Two days in Paris with a private local guide, mixing big-name sights, metro-led neighborhoods, and flexible photo stops you can tailor to your pace.

“Our guide was Mehrdad, and he was phenomenal. He was friendly, welcoming, and an incredible host. He reached out the day before our tour to confirm the meeting spot and answer any questions we had. Mehrdad also helped us become confident managing public transportation, which we were a bit intimidated by when we first arrived in Paris. Mehrdad allowed us to set the pace and choose what we wanted to do, which was great since we had done a couple of tours the days prior and had seen several of the locations on the example itinerary. When we weren’t sure or couldn’t decide, Mehrdad helped guide us to a decision…”

“This 2 day experience was so wonderful in many ways! We saw many beautiful and historic sites-quaint small villages, museums, the Normandy beaches and of course, miles of gorgeous French countryside. Then there was Cyrus, our guide. He was committed to making our experience just what we wanted it to be! He was a wealth of knowledge about historical events but also the French way of life. He patiently answered so many of our naive questions and didn't rush us at any stop. He also helped us interact with the local people, explaining customs that, as Americans, we didn't know. In the end, we felt like we were leaving a…”
