The description was very accurate. There were eight of us, and our guide, Matt. Our guide was very knowledgeable in all areas of World War II, and especially concerning D-Day. Each stop was meaningful. The guide also was considerate of our needs for bathroom breaks, and lunch break. We all got along well and enjoyed one another, all the while learning about a very important day in history.

Best guides and tour!
Highly recommend this experience even with small children! We did it with 3 kids aged between 5 and 10 and they thoroughly enjoyed it as much as we did. Our guides were super accomodating for the kids and made sure they wearing sunscreen, were hydrated and felt comfortable on the drive. This is the only way you would want to do the D-Day tour. Each stop was accompanied by a detailed explanation and our guides took some lovely family photos (and a selfie 🤳🏽)

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!

Omaha Beach priceless
Worth 2 hour drive, little less. The Omaha Beach memorial and time spent there was priceless, as well as the stop at the American Cemetary and German Cemetary. Our guide was very informative and kept us on time getting back to ship with plenty of time.

Our Guide Eliset, was FABULOUS!
Our tour of the Abbey was outstanding. Our guide, Eliset, was so knowledgeable about the facility and the historical significance of the facility that made our tour so fun and informative. We can't write enough good things about our wonderful day! We would highly recommend this tour and guide to everyone.

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.

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.

Loved the small group, comfortable transport and highly informative guide. For one so young, Matthew demonstrated a passion and expansive knowledge of the subject matter. He was generous with his time and knowledge, warm and friendly and went out of his way to make sure we all had an enjoyable and comfortable day. He is an asset to your team.

Omaha Beach Tour
Faustin was an excellent guide and driver. He was patient with the couple that got lost on the way to the pickup point and his attitude was the reason the other passengers were also accepting of the situation. He was full of knowledge about the area and historical references. I would love to do another tour with him in the future.

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.

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.

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.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Steeped in World War II history and home to some of France’s most famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites, there’s plenty to uncover in Normandy, but this large region can be tricky to get around without your own transport. Normandy bus tours provide a convenient way to visit the headline acts, whether you’re a solo traveler, don’t have the budget for a private guide, or want to pack as much as possible into a day trip or shore excursion. Set itineraries take the hassle out of purchasing tickets and organizing transport, plus you can admire Normandy’s changing landscapes along the way.
