I very much enjoyed my tour of Deauville and Honfleur, France. Our guide, Maureen was very knowledgable. The towns were beautiful with rich historic neo Normandy architecture, nice water and harbor views and delicious cafes and bakeries too!

We did not have internet so we unable to get communication from the tour operator. There was no one that we could identify at the port for the tour. The your guide called us, and we still couldn’t find us. The representative at the gate that was supposed to direct was rude and blew us off. Once we got on the bus it was great.

This was a very wonderful surprise. Our ship was diverted due to weather so with little time to study we decided on this tour. Lawrence, our tour guide, was a delightful source of information on the history of the area. Additionally he was patient, yet firm. Dueville and Honfluer are beautiful examples of the Normandy culture. We are so glad we took this tour.

It was a good tour of 3 smaller towns in Normandy. There was a walking tour in each town. There was a lot more walking than we expected but we enjoyed it and took lots of pictures. It was always hard to find public bathrooms and some you could pay by scanning your credit card or paying a euro.

This was my first time to France. I thoroughly enjoyed our drive through the country and through these two cities. Our guide went above and beyond...he shared with us information about the battle at normandy, about the history of France, about the history of the church in France. He pointed out beautiful sights in both cities. Highly recommend the tour and our tour guide Lawrence. He was informative, friendly. I would take another tour from him anytime.
