Fascinating family history of French Resistance complements deep historical knowledge of the war (societal, logistics, battle details). Very personable and willing to take any and all questions. Provides a mix of video and photographs to supplement his discussion. This tour could not have been better.
Wonderful day out and learned lots about WW2, D-day, and Normandy.

We had a wonderful day touring the D-day/Normandy area. I went with just me and my 12 year old son (both from Michigan, USA) and we were able see everything that we wanted to see and learned all about WW2 and D-day. Igor is a wealth of knowledge, a real professional, and gave lots of interesting historical context and information. I'd recommend this tour for anyone that would like to see the area and learn more about it.
Highly Informative and Considerate

Amazing! Igor is so organized and prepared, friendly and accomodating and a wealth of knowledge. He was willing to flex to what we wanted to see, he prepared in advance for people with unusual requests, he had a multimedia presentation with videos, interviews, and other items we could watch while we drove from one place to the next. Igor is a must to book for an informative Normandy tour!

First and foremost, our guide, Igor, is amazing at this job! He picked us up at our hotel which was out of his way. His breadth and depth of knowledge coupled with his multi faceted approach to passing on that knowledge, provided for an entertaining and fascinating day of learning. We had three generations on our tour - my father in law, me and my son. We enjoyed Igor's passion for the history and heritage of the region. His numerous accounts of different people involved in D-Day brought a human side to the immense military operation. I was very impressed with attention to detail and concern for our enjoyment. He made sure we did not miss the lowering of the US Flag at the Omaha Beach Cemetery and the playing of Taps. So Powerful!. Can't say enough. His price is very reasonable and so worth it. You will not regret booking with Igor.
