    Fabulous tour. Tour operator easy to spot right off the cruise ship. I really enjoyed seeing small towns and villages as we made our way to the beaches. Our guide was truly awesome. Very, very knowledgeable and I learned a lot. My father was on the 4th day coming in on Omaha Beach and it was very special seeing the beach and tributes. I was overwhelmed by the American Cemetary. No negatives other than the amount of walking. It was quite a challenge for me.

    This was an all day trip to important sites related to the D-day battle. Our guide and driver were wonderful and the entire day was very moving. Not recommended for children or those who are unfamiliar with this episode in history. Only complaint (and we were off season, so limited options), was the lack of provisions. If you are coming from a cruise, bring food!
