Intimate, informative and really worth the money. History buffs and novices will both enjoy this tour. It is slightly more expensive than other tours but the comfortable van and the tour guide who has maps and photos to show you along the way make it a good deal. The tour has a high concentration on the American role in the area, visiting the American cemetery etc. The highlight is definitely having time to look through old bunkers and bomb craters at Pont du Hoc. If you have the time please do this tour.

Our tour was fantastic! Guide was the best, and I don't think we would have gotten 110th as much out of the trip had he not been our guide. What an amazing and powerful experience, and for what we could do, a half day trip from Paris worked out great!

Our experience was phenomenal. Our tour guide certainly deserves a great deal of the credit. She was not only very knowledgeable, but she was also very friendly, engaging, kind, helpful, and flexible. She clearly did her homework and offered much detailed information and many insights about the invasion. She frequently consulted us about our preferences within the time constraints that existed, allowing us to have appropriate control over our experience. She answered virtually all our questions about the invasion very well and also offered advice and suggestions about other topics we raised. At the end of our tour she was enormously kind and dropped us off where we needed to be. The tour was great. So was the guide. Keep her.

The only thing I would add to this wonderful trip is more time!!!! Especially at the American cemetery and museum.

This tour was unbelievable. The tour guide was great and very accommodating and knowledgeable about the events and logistics, and showed us a lot more than I could have ever hoped for. I would have easily paid a lot more for this trip than it actually costs.

Although this was a short trip to the Normandy beaches, we were very moved by the whole experience. Our guide and driver was so informative and enthusiastic, we could tell he really loved his job and enjoyed sharing his knowledge with us. The visits to Pointe du Hoc and the American Cemetery were exceptional. We would definitely recommend this tour to everyone.

The tour was excellent and our tour guide was outstanding. She clearly had a passion for people and history. To be at the Normandy Beaches and have the key events of that historic invasion explained was a very moving experience.

Our guide was very prompt and knowledgeable. I have been to France many times, but never Normandy, and it is well worth it. If I could change one thing, I would have taken a longer tour so I could spend more time at each stop.
