Fantastic experience!

5.00I met Mike at the train station in Bayeux France with three members of my family. Mike was waiting for us with a big smile and new vehicle with plenty of room. I knew as soon as we met Mike that we were going to have a great tour. Mike is very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. Due to Mikes in-depth knowledge of the invasion beaches , I would recommend doing your homework and prepare questions for him because he will surely be able to answer them in detail. It is obvious Mike enjoys touring people and makes the entire experience enjoyable. By taking a private tour you will avoid the tour bus crowds. I can’t say enough good about Allied Victory Tours and Mike. I highly recommend them and have done so for friends and other family members. October was a perfect time of the year. The setting of the beaches and Allied Cemetery was impressive and respectful.
Exceeded our high expectations!

5.00Professional, personable, persistent, prepared, pleasant. And that’s just the P’s! Mike made the battle come alive, with full grasp of the details as to the triumphs, tribulations, and sacrifices that both sides encountered. We spent a full day concentrating on Utah and Omaha, along with the two airborne divisions. While the weather was not ideal, it did not impact on our experience which exceeded expectations. Hard to imagine anyone better than Mike!
The best D Day tour.

5.00Mike was excellent, very knowledgeable of the history and made our half day tour a true delight. We wish we booked the whole day tour because just seeing the highlights left me with the desire to learn more.
We had a very intense two day visit to Normandy. Mike did a great job a getting us to the battle sites and cemeteries.

5.00Mike was an outstanding tour guide. He was able to give us information on which trains to book to and from Paris and picked us up as scheduled at the train station. We are big history buffs and Mike was able to answer any questions we had. His knowledge was incredible. Highly recommend his tour.

5.00This absolutely bar none the best tour I have ever had. Mike our guide was knowledgeable insightful and thorough! What a joy to be with some so engaged in his work. Not just a look at history but to actually experience the action through individual stories and photos. A++ effort and a day well spent.

5.00Mike's American D-Day 1/2 day tour was awesome! I highly recommend taking a tour with him. He was punctual for the pickup at our hotel (which was very convenient), extremely knowledgeable about everything related to the sites we toured and events which took place, and interjected many little known facts throughout the tour. It's an emotional and memorable experience that everyone should see in their lifetime.
Amazing Time

5.00This was one of the best, if not the best, private tour ever. Informative. Timely. Fun. It truly was all the things. If the adults were all talking too much, he would make sure to engage my son. I appreciate all the work he did. Bring warm clothes in the summer.resrarch do you can ask questions. Make sure to engage him as much as you can. He was a blessing to our family.
Amazing Historical Tour

5.00Mike was a fantastic tour guide and very knowledgeable. We chose to do a Normandy tour focusing on the USA involvement in D-Day. Mike was very personable to my wife and I as well as our two teenagers. His van was neat, clean, and comfortable. We appreciated the speaker system so you could hear in the back seat all that he was saying. We were pleased with all the sites he took us to and all the information he presented to us. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Mike and learned a lot. I would absolutely recommend Mike and Allied Victory Tours.
