Moving experience. - Gwen was our guide on the full day private tour, and his knowledge and enthusiasm made for a special day. Visiting Omaha Beach was particularly moving, and having a guide to provide insights to the events of D-Day made for an invaluable experience. I highly recommend.

Amazing D-Day private tour - We had an amazing, informative day in Normandy exploring the D-Day beaches and sites with Yannick of HQ tours. Really, it was all we hoped for and more. When we set up our day, Yannick was super responsive. The day we toured, he accommodated the schedule to create a day that would best meet our needs. And he was lovely, and informative about all aspects of the history and the area. Our tour was well worth the money we spent on it. We can't recommend Yannick and HQ tours highly enough!

Fantastic Tour - This was a FANTASTIC tour! Yannick went above and beyond to give our family a private tour of the D-Day beaches. He was incredibly knowledgable and you can see his passion in the history. We truly enjoyed every second of it and my dad (who is a WWII history buff) loved seeing all the sites in person. I highly recommend Yannick and his tour company for any tours! We hope to come back some day!

Best guide in Normandy - I highly recommend Yannick Sterke from HQ Company Tour. He is a perfect guide for the Normandy area. Yannick is extremely knowledgeable, very passionate about explaining WWII history, has excellent English, adds numerous stories about soldiers from both sides of the war and is fun to be with for the entire day. He can provide an amazing agenda for the tour or customize it to your interests or highlight it to where a relative fought. He can dive deep into the history for the hardcore enthusiasts or focus more on the human interest stories for those with more of a casual interest in WWII. Yannick is quick to respond to questions while scheduling the tour and showed up early on the day of the tour. After the tour, he gave us an agenda for the following day based on our interests. Fantastic guy. Booking him will be your best decision on your trip to the Normandy area.

Excellent Day Tour - We had an amazing experience. Our guide Yannick was incredibly knowledgeable, and happy to answer our questions. The maps and photos that he shared really brought the history to life. I enthusiastically recommend this Company. The communication was smooth from start to finish. We plan to enjoy their tour of Mont Saint Michel next time we visit Normandy.

Awesome private tour - Pierre gave an amazing private tour for my family. Highly recommend doing a tour versus doing Normandy on your own due to the massive amount of information Pierre was able to share with us along with the ease of driving to the many different sites. He picked us up at the train station and dropped us back off which was very convenient as well. For sure check the weather. It was pretty cold today and very windy. So glad we did this! Worth the price!
