Darrel_G, Aug 2026

Paying our Respects.

Amazing tour. We had absolutely the VERY best guide you could ask for. Igor was a local guide who knew everything about the Normandy invasion. He was simply the BEST! Very moving experience. We got to witness the lowering of the American flag and hear Tap being played.

From Le Havre Breathtaking Honfleur and Deauville Shore Excursion

alice_m, Aug 2026

We were hesitant to book...

We were hesitant to book the Viator since the cruise lines caution passengers about getting back on time before the ship sails. Since Viator offered the Honfleur and Deauville excursion we decided to do this one no regrets, the tour guide brought us back to the ship several hrs before departure and we were about to book another excursion to Le Havre. Viator tour guides are very aware of boarding times no need to stress...in fact now that we are comfortable with booking Viator Shore excursions we will continue to search out great excursions for our future trips! In addition Laurence aka Larry the tour guide was fantastic he was very patient always a nice smile when you asked questions always willing to help with making the trip the best! He always had a good side...I don't think he has a bad side, his personality was very nice!

Half Day DDAY Omaha Beach American Cemetary and Point Du Hoc from Bayeux (OPHORUS TOURS - Valentin)

This trip was in early May 2026. Though the weather was very challenging due to wind and cold and some rain, our guide Valentin was full of energy for the whole tour and brought DDay to life for us as we toured the sites. He communicated his passion for and deep knowledge of this subject to all of us and created the lasting memory we were looking for.

Full-Day US Battlefields of Normandy Tour from Bayeux (A3LST)

Linda_S, Jul 2026

The Past- WWll

I learned more on this trip that I learned in school. The guide Moana was superb. Extensive background information for each of the places visited was shared by the guide. Pictures maps and charts as a part of the background information were well placed throughout the tour. Once at a location, there was sufficient time for exploration of the site/location. Stories as to why things were the way they were made the trip more meaningful.

Normandy Guided E-bike tour to Omaha Beach / private tour

Lisa_D, Jul 2026

Nice Way to See Omaha Beach

We did about 20 to 30 miles bike ride from Bayeaux. Our guide Theo was lovely and the ride back along the cliff is beautiful. We saw things we wouldn’t have found on our own - the castle where the Nazis did their planning for the Atlantic Wall, the hill where the Allies distributed their fuel and bunkers. The visitors center at Omaha Beach was great and we already knew a lot of the information before going in. Recommend for a bit of physical activity and to enjoy the landscape and history.

Normandy WWII Private Half-day Sidecar Tour From Bayeux

Jennifer_A, Jul 2026

The only way to see Normandy

If you're planning a trip to Normandy, don't see it any other way than with Normandy Riders. This was, without question, the best tour of our entire trip. Manuel and Jerry were absolutely amazing tour guides. They were incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and passionate about the history, bringing each stop to life in a way that was both meaningful and unforgettable. They also made our entire family, especially our kids, feel completely safe and comfortable throughout the day, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy the experience. Seeing the D-Day sites this way gave us a perspective we never could have experienced on our own. The attention to detail, the personal stories, and the genuine care they showed for our family made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We can't recommend Normandy Riders, Manuel, and Jerry highly enough. If you're visiting Normandy, this is the tour to book—you won't regret it.

Respect for heroes

Our guide Thierry was very kind and had great knowledge of events in WWII. We were very comfortable in the modern clean vehicle used with Air Conditioning on a very hot day. We were offered cold drinks as well. The taps ceremony (lowering of the American flag) at 4 pm was very poignant and we were grateful for the respect given our military heroes.

Normandy Battlefields Tour - American Sites (A3)

Yoshihiro_W, Jun 2026

I joined the Normandy...

I joined the Normandy Beach tour on what was probably the busiest day of the year, but Lucie was an outstanding guide. She skillfully adjusted the schedule throughout the day to avoid crowds at each site and traffic on the roads, making sure we were able to see all the important locations. I was late starting my museum visit, but Lucie guided me as efficiently as possible so that I could still see almost everything. Her flexibility, quick judgment, and professionalism made the experience smooth and enjoyable despite the heavy crowds. I would absolutely recommend Lucie as a guide.

Mont-Saint-Michel bay walk

Leigh_S, May 2026

Excellent!

The tour and the tour guide were excellent, the kids really enjoyed it especially the quicksand. Would highly recommend. Tips: Bring a spare change of shorts or wear swimming trunks in case you get wet while trying out the quick sand. Bring a small snack/drink/beer for when you stop on the little island; tombiline. Follow the other advice in terms of clothing and equipment as detailed on the website. Enjoy!

Monet's Gardens & House-Private Giverny Tour From Paris

Sharon_B, May 2026

Giverny

Our guide was exceptional. On the way to Giverny he gave us a history of Monet’s life. We arrived at opening time and he guided us through the house before it got crowded. After that we were free to tour the gardens and pond. On the way back to Paris he pointed out places Monet had lived and painted. Finally he dropped us off in Paris at a very nice place for lunch. A great day.

Private Day Tour including Normandy Landing Beaches & Battlefields from Caen

Tony_T, Apr 2026

Excellent Tour

In short, our tour through Normandy was excellent. We're a family of three, and as this was our first time in Normandy, we wanted to see as much as possible. We figured a private tour would allow us to accomplish this goal. We truly lucked out with our tour guide, Emmanuel, who was able to accommodate our agenda. At each stop, he was able to provide additional background and details while giving us the time and space to explore on our own. In addition, he was kind, funny, and a great driver! To highlight how Emmanuel made the trip extra special, my dad had mentioned in passing that he had served in the US Coast Guard. During our stop at the Normandy American Cemetery, Emmanuel made sure to point out the lone Coast Guard member listed in the Garden of the Missing. We definitely recommend this trip (and Emmanuel) for others!
