The Mont-Saint-Michel is quite overcrowded with tourists and the crowds crowd in the narrow streets, but you have to see it once. Since the tide was low, we were able to walk around the island after visiting the sacred buildings, which was very impressive (I didn't record it, but I added a few pictures) 👍

A magical place, especially at 5am in the morning. The walk from the parking lot over the bridge takes about 45 minutes. The sunrise in the bay is magical. There was very little going on on the mountain this early and my plan to see the incoming tide worked. The way back by shuttle bus was easy. A wonderful tour.

I only recorded one direction.
I thought it was quite busy for a Monday. Sometimes you could put your feet up without falling over. Otherwise, it was very impressive. Reservations are recommended.

The tour begins at the top and descends over three levels. There are several more that are not accessible to visitors. It was a worthwhile visit. Since we were already …

Mont St Michel is perfectly organized. You can leave your car in the parking lot 3 km away for expensive money and walk through the salt marshes and over a bridge to the monastery hill. It's beautiful, looks like Hogwarts, including Diagon Alley. Unfortunately, it is also completely overcrowded, the crowds sift through the narrow streets. No dogs are allowed …

Today we reach the highlight of our trip: Mont Saint Michel.
Early in the morning, we set off to avoid the crowds.
For me, there were still crowds of people, but according to the tour guide, it was quiet. These are just different perceptions.
From the parking lot, we set off on foot and could admire Mont Saint Michel from …

Mont-Saint-Michel has long been on my wish list of places to visit. I have now fulfilled my wish 😊🤗🥾👍🏻. Great, simply mystical and the decision to walk was exactly the right one 😉 If you want, you can also take the bus from the car park.
