Explore the Emerald Coast in extraordinary style aboard a gleaming vintage sidecar, with a charming local driver-guide whisking you through Saint-Malo's iconic sights and on to Cancale — the oyster capital of Brittany — for a taste of the finest bivalves in France.
What to expect
Your helmeted adventure begins at the port as you settle into the leather-trimmed sidecar of a beautifully restored vintage motorcycle. Your driver-guide navigates the ramparts, the Sillon beach, and the Grande Plage before setting course along the dramatic Emerald Coast road to Cancale. Arrive at the Cancale oyster beds — one of the most famous in the world — where you'll sample the celebrated oysters, plucked from the bay, with a glass of crisp Muscadet. The return sweep along the clifftops is pure joy.
Good to know
Tours depart from central Saint-Malo — a short taxi ride from the cruise terminal. Helmets and weatherproof gear are provided. Combined Saint-Malo & Cancale itineraries typically run 3–4 hours; confirm the duration with the operator at booking. Cancale is approximately 15 km east along the coast road.
