Wow. What a day! We were lucky enough to hear taps played at the US cemetery. Paul was a great guide with many illustrations and pictures to help explain the battles. Having read the book and seen the movie, it was good to see the locations of some of the scenes.

Excellent tour, long day
Meeting place was hectic trying to decide which tour was ours. When guide arrived he had names on a board which made it clear. Theo, our tour guide was fabulous! He was super knowledgeable and shared so much history with us! Tour bus was a bit small as 8 people were were

The best DDay tour
Boy was the best tour guide one could ask for. He was extremely knowledgeable, accommodating. informative, and passionate about preserving the memory of DDay and the stories of the many men and women who served. His command of the details of the events was superb.
We feel honored to have had him as our guide.

If you are Canadian this...
If you are Canadian this gives some reality to what the men experienced and the hardships the french and other countries had to endiure at the hands of the Germans. The amount of infrastructure put in place by the Germans was unbelievable as was the scale of the Juno beach assault. Highly recommend Stephane to interpret the events and bring them to life.

Once in a life time trip
This tour is a wonderful way to get around all the important sites. Your guide will point out details you will not see otherwise.
Our guides Remy and Thomas were knowledgeable, entertaining, and brought the historic events to life. We couldn’t imagine our time in Normandy without them!

Corine is great !
Corine was an amazing guide. She is super kind and was very patient with us. She has great conversation. We really appreciated her company and also, that she was super patient with my mom during the abbey visit, even if they didn’t speak the same language, they were able to understand each other.

Comprehensive D-Day Tour
Noemie is a phenomenal guide! She provided historical context and visuals to make everything come alive. Utah & Omaha beaches with the bunkers, defense lines & positions of the allies were unbelievable. We visited a museum & ended at the Normandy American Cemetery when the flag was lowered and taps were played. There are no words to describe the feeling - except our deep gratitude to all service members! Our guide was flexible & so easy to be with. We highly recommend a private tour!

Excellent tour, highly recommended
Excellent tour, brilliantly handled by Nad. Instructions from Ophorus were clear and accurate about meeting places and what to expect in the tour. Nad was extremely informative and passionate about Mont Saint-Michel, as well as Normandy in general. Very highly recommend this tour.

Great way to explores Normandy
This was such a wonderful experience, I would love to recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy Bayeux countryside. It’s not physically challenging as I thought. Rather very relaxing and manageable ride. Our tour guide Theo was very nice and knowledgeable about the D-day and Normandy . We rode around the area and learned about the history. I cried at the Normandy memorial site. What a tour!

Excellent Omaha and Utah beach tour
Our guide, Luana was fantastic. She was great at explaining the history of the invasion, the events that occurred that day and took the time to address all questions. The tour of the cemetery was a very emotional experience, to see the number of young men and women who gave their lives during the Normandy beach invasion and subsequent battles for our freedom.

My husband and I had a great experience with this day long Normandy Beaches . The meet up with our tour guide was easy. Naomi was friendly and full of information. She gave full , interesting information to paint the picture of the planning and execution of D-Day.
The lunch/museum stop could have been longer - it was hard to see both the museum and have a meal as well.
We enjoyed the day- it is a lot of information to take in but well worth the time. Thank you for a great tour Naomi.

10/10 Experience
Our tour guide (V) was spectacular. She was knowledgeable and personable and paced the tour perfectly. We never felt rushed but it also never lagged or got boring. We enjoyed Mont Saint Michel and I felt like the abbey and village are among the most magical sites in the world. Absolutely recommend. One thing to note...there are a LOT of stairs, like a crazy number of stairs. Still recommend the tour company and the site as a 10/10 must do if you are in France.
