The tour was incredible!! Utah, Omaha, Pointe Du Hoc, Saint Mar Iglese, Normandy cemetery. Very humbling. Once again Zac the tour guide was great!!! Incredibly knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour. My only wish would’ve been to be able to see the Utah and Omaha museums but it is a packed day.The tour company honored my request and had Diet Coke for me throughout!!. They were great to work with.

The trip up to Normandy from Paris was a highlight of our entire two week trip to France. Our driver was a great guy and our tour guide was outstanding. My husband and I each had a father who fought in WWII so we felt it important to visit the D-Day beaches and museum. We each thought we knew a fair amount about that time in history but our knowledge was minute compared to that of our guide Zac. He was absolutely amazing with his depth of knowledge, shared in a very comfortable companionable manner. His English was excellent and he was a delightful young man. I could not recommend this more.

Michael took us on a very informative tour where we got to see Omaha Beach, Utah Beach, the St. Mere Eglise area and museum, and the American Cemetery. It was a lot to view in a short period of time, but we were happy to get it all in! Michael was a great resource for history and for anything French for the rest of our visit in Paris. He and Pierre, our driver, we fantastic company and very accommodating. The van was kept clean and cool and water was always flowing for us.
