In this video: ✔️ Why we booked this through the cruise line instead of going independent ✔️ What the 2.5-3 hour drive and shuttle actually look like ✔️ The full guided abbey tour — church, cloister, refectory, and crypt rooms ✔️ The tidal history that makes this bay one of the most dramatic in Europe ✔️ Free time in the village, and the one thing about overnight stays that surprised us ✔️ Our honest answer: was a 9-hour excursion day worth it? ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Intro 0:17 - Bus Excursion from Le Havre 2:05 - 9 Hours, Ship to Ship 3:00 - Rainy Day?
