Such a great D Day experience. Visiting Omaha Beach was intense and very emotional, and the American Cemetery left a strong impression. Our guide Anna was fantastic, very clear, engaging, and easy to listen to. She explained the history in a simple and interesting way. Big thanks to our driver Ivan for a calm and comfortable ride throughout the day. Everything was well planned with no stress at all. Definitely a tour we will remember!!
Thank you so much for your review!!
Amazing D Day tour, absolutely worth it. Omaha Beach was very powerful and emotional, something everyone should see at least once. The American Cemetery was incredibly moving. Huge thanks to our guide Oksana, she was knowledgeable, friendly, and told real stories that made history feel alive. Our driver Alex was great as well, smooth and comfortable drive all day. Very well organized and never rushed. One of the best day trips we did in France.
Thank you so much for your review!!
Great trip to Normandy from Paris. Oksana was a wonderful guide and Ivan is a top driver. The Caen Memorial and Omaha Beach were very moving to see. Much better than a big bus tour. Highly recommend them!!!
Thank you for your review. We are very happy that you liked everything!
This tour offers a really thorough visit to the important museums and sites in Normandy. It was one of few tours where you can be picked up at your hotel or airbnb which was wonderful for an early start. Our guide and driver were on time and texted us to let us know they had arrived. Oksana was our guide and she made sure we didn’t miss seeing the German bunker at the museum or the flag ceremony at the American cemetery. These details enhanced our visit and understanding. Ivan was a wonderful driver. Seeing the American cemetery was so moving. As was seeing Omaha Beach. These are not to be missed if you want to grasp who we are as a country.
Thank you for the kind words!
