This trip was excellent. So informative, and truly a must of you're able. Gustavo, our driver and guide, was such a likeable guy. He was on time, amiable, and a wealth of knowledge. We would (and tried) to book with him again!

Great Day Trip to Normandy

Joseph_S, Aug 2024

We loved our day trip to the Normandy beaches. Our guide Christian did a great job driving and explaining so many interesting facts about the beaches and history. The US Cemetery and memorial is a beautiful place that I will not forget.

Memories that will last forever.

Our tour guide was absolutely fantastic and accommodating. She was very knowledgeable about all the cites and made great recommendations for lunch. I Had the best mussels I ever had in my life in a small fishing town. She was extremely pleasant and went out of her way to find me the best Carmel in the region. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

Highly recommend this historical tour

Darci_V, Jul 2023

My husband is a WWII buff and enjoyed this tour very much. (It was also eye-opening for me to be reminded of the loss and sacrifice.) Gustavo is a wonderful guide, easy to spend the day with, and is extremely knowledgable not just about Normandy, but about politics, art and more. It's worth a day trip from Paris to visit Normandy!

History class and beautiful landscapes

marcoantonio_d, May 2022

This trip is for people who like history, but it has beautiful landscapes as well. The guide is great, he knows deeply about the D day and second war subjects.

Brenda R, Aug 2018

Anne-Claire Bailly was a wonderful tour guide. She provided us with so much information and history. She worked tirelessly to ensure we saw everything we wanted to and more. It was a long ride to Normandy but the time went by quickly. We stopped to pick up lunch half way there and had a beautiful picnic lunch on the beach. It was a bucket list adventure for my husband and myself and our 6 children left with a profound respect of this historical area.

Great Tour

Melissa M, Aug 2018

We really enjoyed our tour and our tour guide was excellent. Our whole family enjoyed the day. We would definitely recommend this tour. Great experience!

Kristina D, Apr 2018

My husband and I had both been to Normandy before- This time, we returned with our children, ages 15, 13 and 9. We opted for the private tour, in light of having children along. Our guide was Milan, who passionately, articulately, and accurately was able to set the stage for each battle, break down landscapes, strategies, historical significance of each location in such a way that we all walked away knowing so much more about D-Day and the battle for France. As a driver, he was an artist in both traversing the countryside and the crazy city streets of Paris. I had never driven around the Arc de Triumph before, but there we were. This trip was worth every penny, and truly changed my children's view of war, loss, battle, heroes, etc. Thank you.

This was a great tour.So glad we did...
