Super hot day but with the spacious van with AC and a great tour guide narrating the trip it was an amazing experience Theo clearly loves his job and the D Day topic and provided great stories and insight. Highly reccomend.
Excellent experience with a great guide. Pascal was very informative and entertaining. Thanks for a great afternoon exploring this important historical area.
Pascal was a fantastic guide! He was so knowledgeable and interesting! He made the whole tour so enjoyable 😉 I booked through coasttravel1216@yahoo.com It truly brought home the experience that those soldiers endured!
This was an exceptional and well-planned tour of the American D-Day sites. Our tour guide Victor was excellent. He gave great explanations of each of the sites and was very friendly and funny as well. It was an amazing and moving experience, and I recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the D-Day sites!
This was a remarkable experience. A must do when you are in the Normandy area. Our guide Victor was so knowledgeable and told the history perfectly. The ceremony at the American Cemetary was very moving. It was a day we will remember. Thank you Victor for making it so special.
The half-day tour was great! Our host, Valentin, was so knowledgeable and took a lot of time in his explanation. His passion for history was evident! We loved all the stops and had ample time to explore on our own. Would definitely book again! Well worth the money!
Victor was knowledgeable and passionate about WWII. He was very friendly and speaks fluent English. Excellent tour!!
Victor the guide was professional and friendly. Made the tour fun and exciting. Tour was very well done and learned so much. Thank you Vic
If this is a once in a lifetime, bucket list item, and you want the best, go for this tour company and try to get Pascal, who was extraordinary with his depth of knowledge and his ability to communicate it.
It was very nice and informative!
