Superb Battlefield Tour - Superb tour guide Eric. Well grounded in military history spread over the first two days of Canadian advances in Normandy in June 1944. Friendly demeanor and kept a group of 5 moving along without feeling rushed. Of particular interest was walking St Aubin and learning how Canadian troops advance against well entrenched Germans. I’ve watched tour groups around the D-Day beaches over the past dozen years. This tour was an excellent entry into the process for me.

Absolutely amazing Canadian DDay Tour - I am so grateful for my Canadian DDay Tour with Alex. It surpassed all my expectations. A full day packed with stops to visit the important Canadian sights (Juno, Canada House, Juno Beach Centre, Commonweath cemetary, monuments, and buildings) along with Alex's knowledge and passion for the Canadian and British soldiers' battles and experiences, made the journey unforgettable. He answered all my questions, and provided insight and perspective along with stories and maps. Thank you Alex!

An outstanding experience! - Alex was our guide and he was outstanding at giving us a historical account of all the events that made Normandy top on our wish list for places to see and things to do on our vacation to Europe. He was excellent with our entire group and found us a wonderful place to have lunch, and was informative and entertaining and gave us so much value for our money and our time. I wish I had treated him to lunch but hindsight is 20/20. My husband and I travelled and toured with our two teenage boys who also enjoyed the day immensely and deemed it as a highlight of our trip. I left the day a better person than I started it so thank you Alex!!!
