Highlights

Meet your guide at 9am at your hotel in St Malo or nearby.

You will start your tour in St Malo, exploring its ramparts and the Old City, where you’ll learn about the Corsaire, the notorious pirates who troubled English merchant ships. Your guide will then lead you through St Malo’s impressive fortress, sharing tales of pirates, notable sailors, explorers, and the conflicts between the English, Dutch, and French. This is a fantastic experience for kids who love pirate stories. You’ll finally discover the real reason why pirates wear an eye patch…

Next, head to Cancale for a seafood lunch, featuring Abalone if you visit in October. Abalone is considered the true sea caviar—rare and mostly available in October.

After lunch, visit a unique oyster farm where generations have raised and prepared oysters for some of France’s top chefs. Learn all about oyster production and why some are expensive while others are not. A tasting is included in the visit.

Your next destination is the medieval city of Dinan, a 45-minute drive from Cancale. Founded by the Lords of Dinan in 1040, this well-preserved medieval city has remained unchanged since the 12th century. You’ll sense the power and wealth of the city’s traders—a true journey back in time.

After a pleasant walk through the city, head to Cap Frehel to enjoy one of Brittany’s most stunning views. Your guide will ensure you arrive in time for sunset, offering an even more romantic vista.

Around 7pm, your guide will drive you back to St Malo.
