  Karine Poullard is a wonderful guide! I feel lucky to have found her! I had arranged a full-day private bus tour for my family (we were twenty one), and we could not have asked for a better or more expert guide. Being from the area, she was able to share fascinating personal stories about her experience growing up there. Moreoever, she is extremely knowledgeable both about the specific details of the WWII battles and sites in the area, and also about what was happening to the civilian population during that whole period. She has multiple exciting and engaging stories about it all! Because of her planning, organization, and expertise, we were able to see all the important sites even though we had just one day. She is also quite charming and a pleasure to be with. Her English is perfect with only a very slight accent so she was easy to understand. (She has a really funny story about when a returning British veteran stayed with her family during a reunion, and she was the translator for her parents!). I am happy to give her the highest possible recommendation!

  Wow! I can't say enough good things about our full day private tour with Karine. My husband and I, along with our two kids, ages 10 and 13, were able to spend a day with Karine touring the sites in Normandy and learned so much! One huge aspect I loved was how great Karine is with kids. She engaged them throughout the day, asked them questions, and told amazing stories that kept them interested. It was the best kind of field trip! Another thing I loved was that she was able to adapt our agenda throughout the day based on when places would be the least busy, so we had several places completely to ourselves (and it was D-Day anniversary weekend). She is kind, incredibly knowledgeable, and easy to talk with. She even offers different tour options for those who need a driver. I'm already looking up another opportunity to have her as a guide in other parts of beautiful France. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a tour of any kind.

  Karine showed us around German and American military cemeteries, the beaches of Utah and Omaha, the Pointe du Hoc .... Clear and substantiated explanations with pictures/photos from the period. It was really good. Karine is a competent Guide who takes the time to detail everything. Perfect visit.... and until the end because back on Bayeux, we went through the British military cemetery! Lots of information also about the region: industries, fortified farms ..... We strongly recommend this Guide. (Thank you Karine 😀)

• We had an amazing experience with Karine touring the beaches of Normandy. Thank you again, Jackie and Jeff

  My wife, her sister-in-law and I took a two-day tour with Karine Poullard and See My Normandy tours in mid-September. My wife and I had previously toured the D-Day beaches area in 2015 with another guide. This time we wanted to help her sister-in-law follow in the footsteps of her late father who landed on D-Day plus one and participated in Operation Cobra as a member of the US Army. Being someone who was originally and is currently from the Normandy region and whose grandparents lived in Caen during WWII, Karine brings a unique perspective that other guides may not be able to provide. She was able to relay the historical background of the sites and the actions that took place there, as well as how the armed forces engaged in the conflict were viewed by the local population. In addition to her native language, she also speaks fluent English should you be from the USA and not speak French. I would highly recommend touring with Karine should you be interested in a tour of the D-Day sites. Jeff from Wisconsin

  Karine is an extraordinary guide, who shares her knowledge generously. She takes great care of her clients and we see that she enjoys doing her job. His English is absolutely perfect and my American husband was able to ask him all his questions. A day we will remember!

  Katrine is a superb guide, and knows Normandy well. She was kind enough to begin the tour at the dock in Honfleur where our cruise had just ended, and finish it at our B&B in Bayeux. She really looked out for us, as well as educating us. It was a terrific day. Every stop was a pleasure, but Honfleur itself should not be missed (picture attached).

  We highly recommend Karine. We spent two days with her in Normandy - one touring the American D-Day sites and the other at Mont Saint Michel. It was me, my wife and our 17 year old son. We are all big history buffs,and my wife and I had done a D-Day tour in '04 with Battlebus. Karine's WWII knowledge was extraordinary, plus she had a French perspective from having grown up near Sword Beach. We particularly liked her getting us access to a German communications bunker at Utah, getting us to taps at the American cemetery, and then spending a lot of time at Omaha Beach's Dog Green seeing what the 29th Division encountered. The visit to Mont Saint Michel the next day was equally great, as she pointed out sites along the way (WWII as well as earlier Norman history) and gave us a great overview and a great tour of the Abbey. Her van was immaculate, she went out of her way to be sure our train to/from Normandy was on time (there were strikes in France) and made sure we were checked in to our hotel before leaving us. We will use her again if we visit Normandy and will recommend her to our friends.

  Our charming and very erudite guide accompanied us for 3 days in emblematic places around Merville. in Bayeux the "tapestry" of Queen Mathilde then in Arromanches and Colleville on the landing beaches. the following day was dedicated to Caen: the castle the tomb of William the Conqueror and the Museum of Peace. the third day we went to Honfleur and Deauville. In the coach Karine comments on the different stages with a lot of explanations, as well as on the sites visited. Personally, I admire her accent when she says names or sentences in English. Very professional and very pleasant she supervised our group of 52 people.
