Very insightful

Tammy_G, Apr 2024

Point Du Hoc was very meaningful to us. Our guide Matt was very knowledgeable. I definitely recommend him as your guide.

Matt was awesome!

Richard_B, Apr 2024

Matt was an awesome tour guide. I really like the stop at the church weee the two medics met up. Matt was very informed of the history of the D-Day operation.

Awesome experience

Barry_W, Mar 2024

Great day Matt was a excellent tour guide. His knowledge of the Normandy beaches and D Day was very informative. Definitely enjoyed the entire day.

Awe-inspiring day revisiting history!

Janice_M, Mar 2024

We just had the most amazing day touring all of the D-Day points of interest. Our tour guide Matt was passionate, knowledgeable, energetic and entertaining. One of the best small group tours we’ve ever experienced. The day ended at the stunningly beautiful American cemetery where we witnessed the lowering of the flags and taps. It was the perfect finish leaving us with perspective and respect for our fallen heroes. Thank you Matt! Would give 10 stars if it were an option!

This is a don’t miss your when I’m Normandy.

John, our tour guide, was excellent. His knowledge is vast. The day was cold and rainy, but he paced the tour to accommodate the eight of us.

Second trip and would do it again.

MIke_S, Oct 2023

This was a great trip to Normandy. I had been previously so I had a level of expectations, but John did a fantastic job of explaining and diving deep into the history there. It was a good mix of talking and allowing room for exploration. We felt like we had a pretty good handle on our experience.

John excellent tour guide

Kevin_M, Oct 2023

John had an excellent knowledge and very personable approach. We had an amazing experience. Very enjoyable day.

Wonderful but disappointed

Timothy_A, Oct 2023

Tour guide - wonderful. St Mare Elise- wonderful. Utah - Wonderful. Pt Du Hoc - Spectacular. US cemetery - breathtaking. Omaha Beach - HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT . A Tourist Beach town with houses, restaurants and sunbathing French. D-Day it is NOT

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Bonjour Timtohy, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It's great to hear that you had wonderful experiences at several locations with our local guide. However, I understand your disappointment with Omaha Beach, as it didn't meet your expectations as a historical D-Day site. It's important to note that over the decades since World War II, Omaha Beach has evolved into a tourist destination with modern amenities. We are looking forward to have you again soon at any of our destinations. Best, Kevin from Ophorus team

Don’t miss this tour!

Judi_E, Sep 2023

John was a great guide adding small details that brought the Normandy invasion come clearer. A full day was needed to take this all in. We had a lovely lunch and were advised to stay at Coleville cemetery to witness the US flag turned down.

The Best D-Day Story

soprea, Sep 2023

One if the best tours taken by us! A very well organized tour, a wealth of information about the historical events, excellent delivered by Matt Turner. He is a wonderful tour guide whose knowledge on the subject but also charisma are unparallel. Thank you for making the 8 hours spent today in your company a valuable and unforgettable moment.

Incredible must see for everyone

Nancy_P, Sep 2023

Matt was our guide. He was passionate, enthusiastic and amazingly knowledgeable about D-Day. He told us Incredible stories. Many of which were personable to soldiersas well as medics who saved lives. We are deeply grateful that we took this tour and were lucky enough to have Matt as our guide! Everyone should rate this tour with Matt!! Can’t give him enough praise and gratitude

Extraordinary scenes, super guide!

Mary_D, Sep 2023

Our guide Matt Turner did so much more than relate the important history of D Day. He gave it common sense and extremely thoughtful context in ways we had never considered. Who were the German soldiers stationed there? What did the French think of it all? Reality versus myths on several surprising topics. We even learned about bocages (hedgerows) and had our first scrumptious Tarte de Normandie, Matt is a gifted and high energy storyteller who puts 150% into everything he does. We all commented on how lucky we were to have drawn the Matt Turner straw!

Very informative and moving. Excellent tour guide.

Joseph_O, Sep 2023

All sites visited were very humbling. Tour guide was excellent and extremely knowledgeable. overall a great experience.

Great tour I would recommend it to everyone, worth the time and money.. Our tour guide Charles was very good.

David_S, Sep 2023

Mjr Richard Winters’ Statue, Pont du Hoc Bunker and the Cliffs, Ste mere Eglise, Utah and Omaha Beaches, and the American Cemetery #1.

It was a great day...

Amy_B, Sep 2023

It was a great day despite the rain at times. Charles was knowledgeable about each beach. Would recommend this trip.

Wonderful Experience

Amy_G, Jul 2023

We had a wonderful day on tour with Matt Turner. Matt's knowledge is emence. We learned so much and have a better understanding of the events of the D-day. I will share the knowledge that I learned and the pictures I took with my students. Matt answered individual questions and showed me sights that my grandfather walked through in 1944. Matt was kind, courteous and personal with all guests on the tour. I highly recommend this tour.

Great tour!

Ricardo_B, Jul 2023

You need a full day to see everything! Tour guide was amazing - knew everything we asked him and more. Wish we had time to see the museums in each location, but feel like we got the information from our guide. He recommended a great lunch spot (not a tourist trap). Our guide was great when we hit traffic - he knew how to get around the back roads! A very moving and intense tour. Well worth it. *Only wish he had told us NOT to park in the meeting parking location .....we got a ticket. :(

Would recommend it!

James_R, Jul 2023

Excellent guide, John did a great job. His narrative was very interesting and full of history. Would recommend he give maps to guest and explain itinerary before 1st stop to help understand goal.

Good tour and guide....

Thomas_v, Jun 2023

HELEN_O, Jun 2023
