Enjoyable historical tour - Gilles customized our trip and made extra stops to historic villages on the way back. He was very knowledgeable about Normandy and all of its history. His van was luxurious and comfortable. We enjoyed the snacks and beverages provided. Highly recommend!

Excellent full-day excursion to the beaches of Normandy - Gilles was an incredible tour guide (and driver!) We had a very intense (in a good way) and emotional day learning about the heroism and tragedy that occurred on D-Day. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone staying in the Honfleur area that is interested in taking a full-day excursion to the beaches of Normandy!

Amazing tour with an exceptional guide - The visit to Omaha Beach would not have been the same without Gilles's guide. The service was perfect and exploring these places with a local guide was a true luxury. I strongly recommend Gills. He is the number 1.

Gilles Denis: Tour Guide extraordinaire ! - Impossible to overstate what a magnificent guide is Gilles Denis. We are two couples arriving Honfleur by cruise ship, and engaged Gilles for a full day guided tour. Every single aspect, from initial booking to scheduling communication to itinerary planning could not have been better. Gilles picked us up at the port, explained the history of the war and post war era, took us to major and minor battle sites, the incredibly moving American Cemetery, small villages, etc. My advice: If perchance Gilles is not available on your first choice day to tour, change your date! So that he will be available. Thanks so much Gilles.

Tour of Normandy and recount of historical events. - Giles was a pleasure to be with. He went over and above to make us comfortable throughout the full one-day tour and the Mercedes van we toured in was extremely spacious, comfortable and clean. His knowledge of thr Normandy area was outstanding, He gave a great recount and added perspective of the events as they would have happened on June 6th, the day of the Normandy invasion. I wouldn't recommend anyone else.

KROB - We had a wonderful tour with Gilles. He was so informative and could not have seen so much in one day without him. As far as history goes, everyone should take this tour and realize the sacrifices from that day. If we were not successful, the world would not be like it is today. In addition. his van was first class.

Best Normandy experience exer😍 - This was by far out best experience in France. We've been to Normandy once before and used another tour comoany and it was horrible. This tour however was on a whole other level. Gilles is amazing. Super nice, knowledgeable, funny, and so easy to get along with. My wife is Mexican and doesn't speak great English, no problem, Gilles speaks Spanish also. We started with the landing beaches tour and wound up spending 3 days with Gilles. He picked us up in Paris. His van is spotless and stocked with snacks and beverages. His driving was super smooth. His knowledge of the area is incredible. I thought I was fairly knowledgeable about the war and the history. Nope, Gilles is like a college professor. He explained so much and patiently answered all of our questions. I feel like he did a great job customizing the tour to our likes and interests. He took us to Deauville/Trouville, Honfleur, and Rouen. It was an amazing 3 days. There is so much history in the area and thanks Gilles we got to experience it a way like never before. The best tour guide ever. Thank you so much Gilles!!!
