A memorable trip and a fantastically knowledgable tour guide! I would highly recommend. We’d have liked a bit longer at the Merville Battery Museum!

A great way to explore history.
Our guide was fantastic, very knowledgable and really made the history come to life. We visited many locations including the beach, the cemetery and Pegasus bridge. This trip is well worth doing!
