- Visit the famous Unesco World Heritage Site Mont-Saint-Michel.
- Explore the beautiful walled city of Saint-Malo.
- Enjoy beautiful nature with local fauna and flora.
- Learn about French history and culture and enjoy the gastronomy of the region.
In this two days road trip, you will visit two of the most famous sites in the whole country of France. The Mont-Saint-Michel is probably the most emblematic monument of France after the Eiffel Tower. It is an incredible site located on an island with great tides which makes it even more unique. Saint-Malo is a very nice city with fortified walls all around and very interesting sites to visit.
Note that both sites are very touristic and can be very crowded. If it is more pleasant in the Summer with longer daylight and opening hours in general but you will avoid queues and enjoy a more personal experience out of the main touristic season. Anyhow, this can be done all year round and will always be beautiful and mesmerizing. Take good walking shoes and enjoy local gastronomy, oysters, seafood, crepes, wines, etc.
