Per one customer who booked the 3-Day Trip to Normandy, Loire and Mont Saint Michel From Paris, "Initially, I was only interested in this tour, so that I could see the D-Day sites and Mont St. Michel. It turned out to be so much more than that. The French countryside and Normandy villages that we visited during the tour were charming and interesting, and made us feel that we had experienced much more in France than just Paris. The guides (Adrien) were excellent, the hotels were very good, and the itinerary was very well planned and executed. Thank you!"
