Glide along the wild Breton coastline in a gleaming vintage sidecar, your helmeted driver navigating clifftop roads from the walled city of Saint-Malo to the oyster capital of Cancale. It is the most cinematic, utterly unique way to experience this stretch of the Emerald Coast.
What to expect
Kitted out in a leather helmet and goggles, you settle into the sidecar as your expert driver-guide pulls away from intra-muros Saint-Malo. The Emerald Coast unfolds — rugged headlands, sweeping sandy bays, the smell of salt and iodine in the air. In Cancale, you park harborside and taste freshly-opened oysters with a glass of Muscadet, watching the fishing boats bob. The return run along the coastal road at golden hour is pure magic.
Good to know
Cancale is approximately 15 km east of Saint-Malo — close enough for a relaxed half-day with all-aboard time to spare. Book your sidecar slot directly and specify the Cancale itinerary. Dress in layers; coastal Brittany is breezy even in summer. Not suitable for passengers with significant mobility limitations.
