Half Day Tour with Charlie - Incredible & Moving Experience!

5.00Our tour experience with Charlie was incredible. He was so knowledgable at each of our tour stops (American Military Cemetary, Pointe du Hoc & Omaha Beach), and along all of the routes in between. From WW2 history and real battle stories, to local recommendations to learn more, to engaging our "tween" aged children and making it a memorable experience for them too... We only wish we had had more time! It was the highlight of our trip to Normandy, and we would absolutely rebook on our next visit.
Great tour!
