Great day. Despite some necessary changes in the itinerary due to DDay closures, we saw everything we could absorb, and more. Guide very knowledgeable.

Our tour was great! Our guide was very knowledgeable-passionate about sharing the information. Guide and driver kept informed of traffic hiccups due to road closures.

Excellent tour! Highly recommend! Our tour guide Ben did an outstanding job! The bus was very nice and water was provided. Can't say enough good things about the Overlord tour.

Our tour experience was most definitely enhanced by our tour guide Thierry. He was incredibly knowledgeable and ensured that our experience was one that was insightful. With a group of friends we were able to see much more than our own research had provided. I would highly recommend this tour especially with Thierry.

Guillaume, our tour guide was amazing. So knowledgeable and passionate about the History of WWII. I would recommend this tour to anybody who is interested in WWII and especially Band of Brothers. We had special access to places not available to other tours. Brecourt manor being one of them. If you know you know.

One of the Best tours I have ever been on. Make sure to request Benjamin. Not only highly educated with a Master’ Degree in history Benjamin is personable and works with the group to maximize the experience for everyone.

Amanda_B

I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Normandy. The tour includes many sites beyond the beaches of Normandy, as it follows in the footsteps of Easy Company, including the Airborne Museum and drop sites. You will walk away with a much greater understanding of the Herculeanean challenges they faced and appreciation for their heroism and sacrifices. You'll also have a greater understanding of the overall Normandy Campaign, beyond DDay.

No matter how amazing the subject or location of a tour is, the tour guide makes or breaks the experience. Sure, the D-Day Beaches are moving and impressive under any circumstances; more so when you are lucky enough to be there on an actual anniversary. But a guide like Thierry makes you feel like you can practically see what was happening. His passion and knowledge made us feel as though we were getting a personal insight into the lives and feelings of those heroic young men on June 6, 1944, and the days immediately afterward. Our tour lasted nearly 10 hours, but we never noticed the time passing, and would have gladly spent a week with Thierry as our guide and storyteller. Do yourself a favor and take this tour.

Excellent tour! Oliver was extremely knowledgeable and made the stories of easy company really come to life.

Excellent tour. Our guide Remy went above and beyond to share the sights and stories from Omaha beach and its aftermath. His passion for and knowledge of the subject were evident and he shared these readily and with good humour. Would thoroughly recommend this tour
