Such a wonderful experience. - We had the best time on this trip. Our guide asked us what we cared about more and he took us there. His stories were wonderful, as was the history. I would highly recommend this.

Perfect Tour for History Buffs - Absolutely best tour of my vacation in Bayeux. The best way to see the beautiful countryside is in a motorcycle side car. Remi was the best tour guide possible, giving insight and knowledge at every location and even pointing out lesser know facts at each stop. He was accommodating, knowledgeable and a top tier guide. He always drove safely and ensured I was comfortable the whole tour. Remi knew all the ins and outs of each stop and added enough information to flesh out the experience. Would recommend to anyone who has any interest in the history of D-Day would for sure do it again and see more spots!

Must Book this tour!! - Such an outstanding day. I met Philippe at the train station in Bayeux and off we went on a splendid 8 hr tour of the Normandy Beaches, museum and cemetery. I learned so much history, saw a rainbow at Omaha beach and heard taps and the star spangled banner at the Cemetery. He was so knowledgeable and friendly and was able to answer all of my questions, we stopped at a nice place for lunch and at the end of the day drove through a rain storm to get me back to the train on time. Highly recommend this tour for everyone, you will not forget it. Watch the Longest Day Movie before you go. Will be helpful! Thank you for a great tour!

Adventure of a lifetime - This was an amazing adventure of a lifetime for our family! We had an unforgettable experience on the D-Day Beaches motorcycle tour. Philippe and Thomas were incredible guides, providing fascinating historical references and bringing the past to life. Riding through these significant locations while learning about the events that changed history was both thrilling and moving. The tour was well-organized, engaging, and full of memorable moments. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to explore the D-Day beaches. Big thanks to Thomas for the extra photography and thanks to Philippe for the expert knowledge. We couldn’t stop talking about how fun the retro motorcycle ride was. Highly recommend this experience! 5 stars!

Gold Beach Motorcycle Side Car Tour — Amazing! - Signed up for this as a bucket list thing to do for while touring all the WWII beaches at Normandy. I did the 2 hour ride. My driver, Remy, was fantastic. The ride and the tour, which was through Gold Bech, was amazing. His knowledge of the details and level of information was great! I would highly recommend Remy and this tour to anyone who is interested in the finer details of Gold Beach. As a side note, he took me to a farm that raises escargot!

The longest day in a few unforgettable hours - Came to pick us up directly at our Pension, Remi made us live an extra experience during 4 hours unforgettable. An open book on the D-day with anecdotes besides off the trail, its good humor without forgetting the sidecar to immerse in the atmosphere of this longest day...! Thank you.
