We had a great trip with our guide, Steve. He was good about keeping the tour on time and didn't talk too much. He told great stories and gave relevant information, all while being fun. Sites were great. We are very glad we booked this trip.

My husband and I had a great tour to Normandy, our tour guide and driver were very professional. Bridget knew a great deal about Normandy, WWII, and the local culture. They were prompt and kept us on schedule. Highly recommend them and this tour!
Great trip, but no AC on the bus
Josh_W, May 2023
It was great to be able to see Normandy in a day. There's a lot to see, and with the 4 hour bus ride from Paris it can seem short, but our tour guide Steve worked hard for us! He showed us so many great stops, shared history, and answered questions. We even had a medical emergency and he handled it with expert care and kept us on our timeline. The bus driver did a good job navigating us through traffic. However THE BUS DID NOT HAVE AIR CONDITIONING! This was a big failure for the tour company and I would not recommend booking with them for this specific reason. We were promised AC and the bus was so hot. The tour company should double-check the AC before every trip. Not sure how this was missed. The tour guide did everything he could.
Great Trip

An enjoyable tour
nancy_b, May 2023
This was my second trip to the Normandy Beaches and it never ceases to move me. This tour was well-paced for a one day trip out of Paris. The meeting place was easy to find and the tour guides were very well organized. Rest stops along the way were well planned. My only complaint was that the trip is advertised as a maximum of 20 persons and that was one of my reasons for choosing this tour. I was disappointed to see that it was a large bus (approx 40 people) tour. All the other participants were lovely and the guide knowledgeable and entertaining. I've used Viator many times - and will again - so I was surprised that this tour was not what I thought I'd purchased. I would recommend this tour, just understand its size.

This tour is everything it promises to be!!! Our tour guide she was amazing!!! Very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour allows you to experience so much. Don’t let the length of this tour scare you away, your experiencing so much the time flys..
Terrible tourguide
Juliet_H, Dec 2019
Tour guide couldn’t be bothered to lead the tour, walked really fast and wasn’t even around half the time. At one point she told my mother not to bother going down, there was nothing to see. The beach itself was amazing, really appreciate the fact that I got to witness a historical site, but for the price I paid I felt let down by the guide. Half the time she was more concerned with being in the bus, putting on her creams than actually ensuring the group knew where to meet, and so on.

Had a great time visiting and learning about the sacrifice of the men and women during this time. Weather was cold and rainy and the guide was very knowledgeable, we had a good experience.

Edward_C, Sep 2019
Radio Agnes is what her fellow tour guides call the tour guide we had for our Normandy tour. She was on the microphone for a good part of the tour. Her knowledge of the surroundings and the stories behind them on the three hour ride to Normandy made for an enjoyable ride. Once we got to Normandy the facts about the history of the D-Day invasion and the days leading up to it was a history lesson right there where history was made.
Missed the tour
Karen_P, Jul 2019
We got to the travel agent around 7:15am and the bus had already departed. So sad to miss this. Thank you, Karen Puckett
Wonderful experience!!

Très bien , compte tenu qu'il y a presque 6hres de route. Un peu moins de temps pour le déjeuner et dans les haltes ferait gagner du temps de visite. Très bon guide aussi, connaissant bien sa visite.
