Misleading tour description
This tour is not represented by Viator accurately. We spent more time in the van (8 hours) with a visit to a tourist cheese factory and a tourist visit to a distillery. As for the food we had 3 tastes of cheese, no other food samplings. Stopped for lunch and had to pay for our own lunch. Who would think you would have pay for your own lunch considering the cost of this Viator trip. No pastry, no wine included. Don’t be fooled be the “food tour”. It wasn’t. The only redeeming part was the pleasant and knowledgeable guide Maureen. I would not recommend this tour to anyone
Response from the operator: Hello Donald, Thank you very much for this review. However the tour was done according to the presentation on Viator and since you enjoyed Maureen as your tour guide there is no problem in the tour . Yes lunch is at your own cost it was explained this way in the tour description. This is a food tour not way to eat all day long. The tour is correctly advertised and Food Tours are away too understand and sample some of the local products. Yes the place where you have been are for tourists and since you booked the tours on Viator you were a tourist. Only places open to tourists can be visited. Now concerning the time you spent in the van we have checked and we have monitors in our vans According to the tour guide and our monitors you spent more time in the visits than in the van. We will then ask Viator to review this review and take it out because it is not relevant to the tour. Thank you very much

Great alternative to the beaches
Wonderful choice of restaurant and distillery. Guide was very informative and genial. We had a perfect weather day for sightseeing and of course Normandy is beautiful any time of the year.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for this very kind review. It was really great to be able to be your guide that day. Best regards.

Amazing Tour of Mount Saint Michel & Food Tour
The tour at Mount St. Michel was amazing. Igor provided us with his own personal audio guide for the Abbey. The audio guide was full of history and interesting facts about the Abbey. He was very knowledgeable about the history and pointed out all the unique things to see at the Abbey. We visited in November and there were hardly any crowds. It was a perfect time to go. We were able to take our time seeing the Abbey. The tide was out in the morning when we visited, but the views were still spectacular. Igor took us to an amazing seafood restaurant for lunch. We all tried something different and the food was amazing. After lunch we walked around the town and tried the local macaroons and stopped at a local coffee shop. When he dropped us off at our hotel, he helped us get reservations at a local restaurant for dinner. Igor is very knowledgeable and helpful. Thanks for an amazing day.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for this very nice review. I wish you a wonderful Christmas time. Best regards.

Wonderful Introduction to Normandy Foods
We really enjoyed our tour with Igor. He was knowledgeable, articulate, and passionate about Norman foods and their backgrounds. We covered several cheeses, including Camembert, cider, Calvados, and pommeau. We visited cheese farms/plants, a cider mill and a calvados distillery. We sampled multiple, high quality products. We drove through beautiful countryside and had an excellent, locally sourced lunch. It is well worth the time as it is an informative and very enjoyable day.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much Roy, for this very kind review. It was a real pleasure to have you on tour. Have a great day.

Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bayeux.
How much does Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux cost?
+
Prices start at $1,598 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bayeux usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bayeux is not rushed.
Is Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bayeux, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bayeux can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bayeux and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour : Normandy Specialties Food Tour from Bayeux start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bayeux within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bayeux?
+
On Outty we rank every Bayeux experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Omaha and Utah beaches, Normandy American D-Day Experience - Group tour from Bayeux, Omaha Full Day Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bayeux?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bayeux?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
