This magnificent tour will allow you to discover the heart of Brittany

It is a land with numerous sights to see, where villages and castles, shores and bocages are in total harmony with the land and the sea. The ride will take you through the Unesco world heritage site “Mont Saint Michel” to the “pirate town” of Saint-Malo along the marvellous Emerald coast. When you take a walk through the cobbled streets of St Malo’s old town, it feels like you’ve stepped back in time. The town and busy ferry port offer visitors an authentic glimpse into Brittany’s important seafaring past. Along the way you should make sure to sample some of Brittany’s culinary delights, such as raw oysters on the half shell and the delicious dry cider which is made in small, local orchards. It is a trip that shouldn’t be missed!

Highlights

  • Letting your imagination run wild in a pirate town along the Emerald Coast
