We drove a car to the Abbey and parked in a self-parking area to catch a shuttle to the Abbey. Was a little unclear about the parking but there were tickets given and had to pay parking at a machine. Price was 15 Euro which was unexpected. Enjoyed the abbey but wish I had gotten to headsets to learn more about the Abbey and the architecture.

After reading some comments on Trip Advisor I was concerned about the shuttle buses and where to find them and if we would be on time for our booking? Nothing could have been easier! Everything was well organised. 4 steps Arrive at the Parking, Park the car, Walk a short distance to the shuttle bus service. Stand in the queue, then board the bus! Everyone was delightful and helpful, especially the gentleman at the entrance to the Abbey. He was so kindly and spoke perfectly in Spanish to my friends. A most interesting and wonderful place. Thank you everyone who gave us such a beautiful experience! The Mass was incredible and although the visit was only for the day, all of us came away with a profound sense of peacefulness.

We had a wonderful time! Loved Mont Saint Michel very much. We were here back in 1997 and it’s very different now but still one of my favorite places in the world to visit. this is a must see if you come to visit France and venture up to the Normandy area.
