Our tour guide was amazing. Very knowledgeable. - The American cemetery and the Omaha beach was amazing. Walking through those two sites was moving. Point de Hoc was also incredible. There is a seven minute film at the cemetery that is a much watch film. Ask your guide.

Excellent Normandy Experience - This was possibly the best guided tour we have ever experienced! Nice van with 3 other couples. But our tour guide, H. B., was just the best. Wonderful commentary all day at all the sites plus his personal and family memories made the trip so special. And the way he coordinated the various D-Day locations ending the day with the American Cemetery was superb. We even had a great lunch at a local place. Just a memorable trip altogether.

Great tour and guide - This was a fantastic and informative excursion! Our guide Enzo was knowledgeable and very pleasant and funny! Having a small group makes all the difference and the other couples were nice. I would recommend this tour highly and I hope you get Enzo!

Worth going less speeding better. - Honoring those who gave their lives for our freedom is a must. Nicolas was well-versed in the subject. We would have preferred more time at the Overload Museum, but there are too many things to see quickly. Our only negative is that the driver was too fast for the traffic conditions.

Fantastic Tour and Guide - By chance our hotel near the Arch d’Triumph was within walking distance of our meeting place. We arrived at 06:30 for a 7:00 departure, and our minivan departed at 6:40. This is a long day trip, made longer on our return due to an accident on the tollway. Our guide, Julian, was fantastic! Very thorough with numerous diagrams and photos. We toured Omaha Beach, had lunch at a nice restaurant, toured the cemetery in the afternoon (watched the flags being lowered at 16:00), and had cider tastings. Julian went above and beyond contacting Air France (never fly with them) to help get our luggage delivered to our hotel. (We arrived Friday and luggage was finally delivered to our hotel late Sunday night.) Julian was fantastic, and a great driver in traffic with occasional rain. We were about an hour late returning due to traffic but would do it all again.

Amazing Day - This is a whole day trip from Paris that was well worth it. -8 passengers in van plus driver. It was full but really ok and other people were nice. -Driver/ Tour guide was very nice and went out of his way to make sure we saw everything. Also was a very safe driver. -The beach sites weee amazing to see and understand the enormity of the day. At one part we walked/climbed up s path in the hillside to a beautiful monument at top. Gave us a good idea how difficult it was to climb while in full uniform and being shot at. Alternative was for tour guide to drive you up yhe hill, which a couple did. -know that the beach is windy and make sure to bring layers and consider a hood. - stopped for an hour at a very cute seaside town on our own for lunch. - The American cemetery was both amazingly beautiful and sad. Our guide brought us on time for the TAPS at 4pm. - The Overland museum was well done and the stop at the Orchard for Cider was nice. I didnt have interest in Cider per se but bought a couple things in the cute gift shop. -All in sll a long day but im so glad we went and i highly recommend

Informative and emotionally moving - HP was our guide for the day. He was very knowledgeable and thorough about all the sights. We viewed the beaches, the museum, the cemetery and with only 8 in our small group we were able to listen closely to what he was saying. Highly recommended and worth the little extra. Keith and Jane

Wonderful trip! - Excellent trip. Our guide, Simon, did a wonderful job. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Good suggestions for lunch and plenty of time to see highlights. Long day trip from Paris but very much worth it. Simon made a real difference.
