5.00Extremely moving and emotional day Our tour guide Ash was wonderful. He spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable. He was able to relate the extensive history before leading up to WW II to the beginning of the war culminating in D Day in a very interesting way. Highly recommend this tour and this guide! Brought home in real way the high cost of the freedoms we enjoy now

5.00This excursion was an excellent and very moving experience. That was enhanced by the knowledge of the local Normandy guide and the honor and respect he gave to the American military. Even though it concerned us: the bus got back in time for us to get on the ship several minutes prior to the all board time. I would highly recommend this tour in this operator.
Great Normandy tour
