Super fun and thorough tour for only 2 days. Really saw a lot, nice hotel, excellent tour guide. Very cool!
Very fast paced itinerary and really gets a lot in during the two days. Our guide was extremely knowledable. Definitely a good value.
Outstanding itinerary, expert and informative guide, plenty of free time in Rouen, Honfleur, and St. Malo, a memorable trip for sure, highly recommended!
You get to see some nice towns on the coastline. Nice meal at the hotel. Breakfast is a great buffet. Normandy is very touching. Saint Malo was nice to walk on the beach. Many places are cooler and windy. Wear a light jacket.
coming back to Paris too long a ride on the bus!!!
Highlight of our trip to France; a perfect break from Paris. I was worried some poor reviews of Paris tours, and the overnight to Normandy/Brittany is expensive. Day one was great, especially the small towns before Normandy. Hotel was fine, dinner was ok. St Malo and MSM were ok, hoards of tourists (it was a French holiday). The ride back was hot upstairs, driver seemed helpless or clueless even after mentioning it. Average age onboard about 60 and fit. A professional job.
The best part was that they made all the travel arrangements. Accommodations were very good for the overnight stay and bus was comfortable. Two dings were that St Malo and Utah Beach were too touristy without having anything unique over the other sites we visited. Second, I would have liked to have more time in some of the other places (the cemetery, Honfleur) rather than pack extra stops in.
Our guide was good, knowledgeable....
Very good but I would have liked more time in the Normandy invasion area
Whole tour was great

Sites were great, but I wasn't to impressed by the tour guide. It really didn't seem like he wanted to be there. I also felt, at times, that he spoke to the group in a condescending manner.
Tour provider was experiencing strike issues, therefore the tour guide chosen to fill in could have been more knowledgeable. Unable to get to Juno beach for us Canadians!
THE TOUR WAS GOOD BUT ACCOMMODATION AT THE NOVOTEL NOT GREAT, THERE WAS NO HOT WATER SO WE HAD A COLD SHOWER! NOT HAPPY!
This was a rather expensive two-day trip 526 US although we covered a lot of ground, and viewed an excellent range of attractions, I would have expected a mature, university-educated guide, with a "professional" knowledge level of what we were seeing. Our guide Carlos was a younger French man, and although he was reasonably pleasant, and rattled off all sorts of facts and stories, it would be obvious to anyone who really knew the material in depth that he was no expert, and had simply memorized a canned pitch. One other comment Mont St. Michel is an INCREDIBLY dangerous place, with hundreds of irregular stone steps, many of which have no hand rails, going down. I am 57 and an avid hiker so the problem is not that I'm elderly, weigh 300 lbs., or walk with a cane. But guests should be warned, before going up to the top, that there are significant risks and that great care should be taken when descending those 500 steps. No . . . I didn't fall, but I can't imagine that there aren't accidents all the time.
