5.00We had a rental car in Paris and drove to Bayeax for this tour. Theo, the tour guide was great and informative and allowed enough time to roam about on our own to see things.
Must do tour.

5.00Our tour guide, Paschal, was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the sites. He gave a great overview of each site as well as some personal stories of some of the fallen and their families. He also had pictures to show us. Most of all, we really appreciate his patience with our 88 year old dad who Is losing his eye sight and has difficulty walking.
Peace!

Captivating experience, one we will never forget, thank you Matt

5.00Matt put his heart and soul into the tour, he was extremely knowledgeable and engaging on the topic and was truly respectful of the history, Matt told us some stories of having veterans on his tour and it was just wonderful to hear about their experiences through Matt, which made our trip even more memorable. The history of how these young men reacted to their situations and their heroics was just breathtaking, clearly the best tour we have ever taken and Matt is the GOAT of all story tellers.
