Our guide was fantastic....

Our guide was fantastic. Even though it was a half day tour we covered so much ground and I never felt rushed anywhere. The built in bathroom breaks were also a plus. This was a highlight of the trip and one of the main reasons was the guide. He told us he had been doing these tours for 16 years and it showed! He was so knowledgeable on D day invasion and each of the sites we visited. Highly recommend!

Very detailed tour

Very good tour guide, spoke good English with some quick mental conversions required to translate the French accented version of the English words. Tour guide has an excellent historical background and detailed explanation of the events. Felt a little rushed at Omaha and Utah beaches and American cemetery.
