Eric was great! My 10...

Jessica_R, Dec 2024

Eric was great! My 10 year old daughter loved it. I wish we had a second day to visit the Canadian and British landing beaches.

Alex rocks (and exceeds all expectations)!

Polly_H, Nov 2024

Our family's (me and my adult children) tour with Alex was the highlight of our two week trip to England and France. We booked the visit to Normandy to visit the grave of our first cousin (once, twice removed) who is buried there. I let Alex know in advance our cousin's name and expected him to let the cemetery know we were coming. He went above and beyond. He researched our cousin's service record and let us know that he did not actually die while parachuting out of a plane but that his plane, which was carrying munitions as well as paratroopers, was shot down over Magneville, a French village many miles away from its target. He took us to that site where we learned that there is a monument to the men who died in that crash. All the names of the soldiers are listed; it was so moving to see our cousin's name listed and visit this site in (literally) the middle of nowhere where he was first buried. Alex also offered to stop at a German cemetery, as it was on the way to Normandy, and the contrast between that and the American cemetery was stark. Alex has a wealth of knowledge about D-day and the WWII in general that he clearly enjoys sharing. He has a quick wit and we developed a fun rapport with him during our tour. Other family members of mine have hired guides and made the pilgrimage to Normandy to visit our cousin's grave but no other tour guide took the time to do the research and none of my other family members were able to visit the monument in Magneville because we did not know it was there. I highly recommend Alex fora personalized tour. Thank you Alex!

We could not have asked for a better guide to show us around. Victor was friendly, funny and extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much. We had an amazing day and are so thankful he was our guide. Book this tour you will not be disappointed.

Powerful, surreal, humbling and amazing.

Diana_V, Oct 2023

This tour was everything I hoped for and more. Eric, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. He was attentive and accommodating. Eric spent extra time at Omaha Beach because that’s where my Dad landed on June 6, 1944 with “The Big Red One” and he knew it was important to me. He showed me in detail where my Dad landed and the route he took to the church where they set up camp. He highlighted a map of my Dad’s journey for me to see and keep. Eric also brought a humanness to the stories he told about all the different types of landings in the invasion and to the different sides of the war. I would highly recommend this tour!

Absolutely Amazing Experience

Katherine_P, Sep 2023

Katell was an absolutely amazing guide. Our group included a history major and multiple people with a lot of historical knowledge. She was so informative and ready to answer all the questions we had. I'm so glad Katell was our guide!

D-Day tour

Eric was our guide. He was very knowledgeable and had good stories about the Normandy history. The trip was educational, fun and very entertaining. Our 11 year old son had a great time as well.
