Paris – Giverny - Etretat – Saint-Malo – Mont Saint-Michel – Paris
Departure at 8 am by coach for the Monet Garden, arriving at around 9:30 and take a visit of about two hours inside.
Giverny attracted several Impressionist painters in the 19th-Century, most following the lead of the movement’s founder, Claude Monet, who lived there for 43 years. During the tour, you will visit the Master’s house, where the spectacular colors and enchanting garden were designed like a work of art. Be dazzled by the flowerbeds and plants and get a sense of the artist’s feelings and inspirations as you stand in front of the famous water lilies and weeping willows in the delightful water garden.
Then, head towards the famous Etretat in Upper Normandy to see the elephant's trunk and needle.
Hotel à Normandy.
After breakfast, departure for Saint-Malo, a city located in the north-east of Bretagne. Take a walk in town and enjoy the scenery of tides in the Bay which are among the largest in Europe.
Then leave for the Mont-Saint-Michel, a granite rocky island east of the river mouth of the Couesnon, the rock on which was built a shrine in honor of the Archangel Michael from 709. The Mont-Saint-Michel is ranked on the list of World Heritage since 1979.
Drive back to Paris around 3 p.m. and arrive at about 8 p.m. End of trip.
