Day 1

In the morning, we'll leave Rennes and head for the Breton coast to explore one of the region's most iconic cities: Saint-Malo.

You'll have some free time to explore this famous pirate city surrounded by ramparts. Stroll through the cobblestone streets of the old town, admire the forts overlooking the sea, enjoy the beach, or sit on a terrace to savor a Breton galette or ice cream while gazing out at the ocean. If the tide allows, you can even walk to Fort National or Grand Bé Island.

In the early afternoon, we’ll head to Dinan, considered one of the most beautiful medieval villages in Brittany. Its half-timbered houses, perfectly preserved ramparts, and charming harbor make you feel as if you’ve traveled back several centuries. You can stroll through the historic alleyways, explore the small artisan shops, or simply soak up the unique atmosphere of this town full of character.

Return to Rennes at the end of the day.

This was one of the most memorable trips. Our group leader was Manel. She was excellent at her job and recommended various places to us. We tried different dishes and visited the most famous sights in both cities. I look forward to going on more trips with Erasmus.

Unforgettable destinations!

Dinan
Saint-Malo

With its ramparts, half-timbered houses and cobbled streets, Dinan is one of Brittany's most beautiful villages. You'll feel like you've stepped back in time as you stroll through its medieval center, amidst artisans, small stores and galleries.

Did you know?

Dinan is one of the few towns in Brittany to have preserved its fortifications almost in their entirety. Its ramparts stretch for almost 3 kilometers!

A former corsair town, Saint-Malo impresses with its ramparts surrounding the old town. Here, you can stroll between stones steeped in history, tides, crêperies and lively little streets. Perfect for a sunset overlooking the ocean.

Did you know? The writer Chateaubriand is buried on the island of Grand Bé, just opposite, accessible on foot at low tide.

Our charters

At Erasmus Place, the journey begins as soon as you get on the bus. It's a friendly atmosphere, where people get to know each other, have a laugh and share music and tips.

Our buses are comfortable, air-conditioned and equipped with toilets, barring major exceptions. We want you to feel at ease, even during several hours of driving. To make sure everything goes smoothly, we also have a few simple rules: respect for everyone, no inappropriate behavior, no consumption of alcohol or banned substances on the bus.

For each trip, we select quality establishments, always with a minimum 2-star rating for hotels. Whether it's a hotel or a hostel, you can count on comfortable, clean and conveniently located accommodation.

Our hotels and hostels are always located in the city center, close to places of interest and local entertainment, so you can make the most of your stay without wasting time in transport. With a few exceptions. 

Rooms are shared among friends, in a relaxed atmosphere, but we respect a simple rule: men stay with men, women with women. Rooms are divided into groups of 2, 3 or 4 people, depending on the configuration of the site. If you're traveling as a couple, it's possible to have a room for two, but only by prior arrangement.
We want you to feel comfortable, surrounded and safe throughout your stay.

Each Erasmus Place trip is supervised by one or more trained Tour Leaders, who are friendly and always available. Their role is to ensure that your stay is well organized, that the group is safe and that a friendly atmosphere prevails from departure to return. They welcome you, inform you, lead the trips, coordinate the different stages of the program and listen to you throughout the trip.

Our Tour Leaders are fluent in between two and five languages, including English, making it easy to communicate with all participants, whatever their nationality. They are not certified guides like those you find in museums, but they know perfectly well the destinations they visit, the instructions for the trip, and the good tips to share. They're there to accompany you, reassure you, answer your questions, deal with the unexpected and make sure you get the most out of your Erasmus experience.
Their aim is simple: to make sure you return home with your head full of memories... and the desire to go back (alone or with us!).
