Our guide was Manon and she was excellent! She was extremely knowledgeable and gave us information about the Normandy invasion that we hadn't known before, which made it much more relatable. Manon was pleasant, professional and obviously cares about what she's doing, we felt fortunate to have her as our guide!

Great day tour with Alex! Will return!

Myself and my dad were expertly guided by Alex who really made our day. Very knowledgeable and although we were very familiar with d-day history Alex was able to make the tour easy to follow for beginners to the topic whilst also keeping the day upbeat and jam packed with information you won’t find online! Great sense of humour and kept us going the whole day. Really recommend booking this tour and requesting Alex!! 10/10

Our guide, Jordan was very knowledgeable and provided lots of information without overwhelming. We loved his enthusiasm. His English was excellent. The tour was very moving, especially the stories Jordan related. There were plenty of bus breaks and the bus was quite comfortable. There is a break for about 1.5 hours for lunch and/or visit to the Airborne Museum. Highly recommend.

Wonderful and moving experience.

We loved this tour! Peter, our tour guide, was wonderful and incredibly knowledgable on WWII history. He took us to the Normandy American Cemetery, the memorial site for the National Guard, and the cliffs where the Army Rangers scaled on D-Day. We had a delicious lunch at the beach as well.

Be prepared. It is a steady upward climb toward the top. But well worth the effort. We loved this tour. We learned so much of the history of Mont St Michel. It was a very hot day and lots of people but we could still enjoy the tour. Walking back to visitor center (our choice) was a hot 45 minute ordeal but it was good to see the abbey from the road.

Say yes to visiting Honfleur and Deauville, France

Excellent tour easily accessed right from the Le Havre cruise terminal. Lawrence was our guide, and he is extremely knowledgeable about Honfleur, Deauville, Normandy, and France in general. We were very comfortable, highly entertained, educated and had plenty of free time in Honfleur and Deauville to walk around and explore. Highly recommend this tour.

Normandy American & British DDay Beaches Halfday Tour from Bayeux

Bryce_F, May 2026

Great service and so friendly

Definitely worthwhile. First off - the service. We had challenges with trains and luggage getting to Bayeaux and they saved the day last minute by taking our luggage in the tour van. Then after they made a special trip to drop off us with luggage at our hotel which was amazing. It really saved our day. In terms of the tour I really appreciated seeing and hearing about some of the less considered parts of d day like the logistics. We all know the famous beach stories - and it’s amazing to see Omaha - but I feel like I got a lot more appreciation of the whole operation. Plus our guide really focused on the human factor - the loss of life and huge impacts - on both the soldiers and the French. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone. I will advise that coming to Bayeaux in the morning without any place to leave your luggage will make the day harder. There are luggage storage places but they take lunch beaks from 12-2. So make sure you have a plan for luggage or come the day before so you can have a stress free day.

Normandy D-Day Tour From Paris

Don_H, Apr 2026

Informative and emotional

Our guide, Thierry, was very knowledgeable. He added a lot to the tour with his detailed stories about some of the men who fought in these battles, and the tactics and strategies of the combatants and their commanders. He used pictures and maps of the action in his presentation. Wear comfortable walking shoes and be ready for a few close quarters and steps in the bunkers. Also be ready to stand as your tour guide details what happened in these areas in 1944. Come with your questions. Our guide time the ending to be at the EOD taps and flag lowering.

Great tour and guide!

Absolutely terrific from start to finish. Emilie, who was my contact in setting up the trip, was great with good communication. V, our guide, was equally wonderful. She was really well-prepared with a book of visual aids that really added to the information presented. En route to Pont du Hoc, she laid out the war prior to D-Day, with the resistance and the Vichy government.
