My family had an absolutely amazing d-day tour with Boy! I have done another tour of the American sites and he gave so much more information at the sites and stopped at other lesser known spots along the way! Boy has met veterans throughout the years and was able to pass along stories he has heard from them that really make the day even more special than it already was. I couldn’t recommend this tour company enough!

Wow! What an amazing tour. Visiting Normandy to pay my respects to the greatest generation has been a bucket list item for me for so long. Boy, our guide, gave us a full day tour that me, my wife and close friends cannot stop talking about. I now realize that even a day touring and trying to experience on D-day and after is not enough but Boy did all he could to help us experience the enormity of that day and months after. His passion and knowledge was amazing and his ability to tell and show us individual stories of soldiers and show us places we’d never see or find alone made it all worthwhile. It was like stepping back in time which is exactly what we wanted for the tour. Thank you Boy.

This tour was absolutely wonderful!!! On April 30, 2024 we had a 4-person private all-day tour of the American Cemetery, Omaha and Utah Beaches and lots of places in between. In my opinion, Boy was the best tour guide that I've ever experienced. He clearly has a passion for WWII history. His knowledge comes not only from books and the internet, but also from first-hand interviews with people who directly experienced combat operations on June 6, 1944. Book his tour! You will not go wrong!

What a great experience!! Boy was the ultimate tour guide-so knowledgeable about the area and the events in WWII as well as the keeper of stories from the vets from that time as well. He is a consummate professional and very pleasant to be with-a true supporter of the Normandy vets who goes above and beyond to share their memories and experiences! You will be lucky to share the day with Boy!!

This tour is fantastic. As a history and WWII enthusiast, I was amazed through the entire day. What's more, my wife and young daughter were equally impressed. Our tour guide, Boy, was phenomenal. He moved the tour along at an appropriate pace while keeping our entire party engaged along the way. Logistically, he made everything seemless and you could tell it was a very well thought out schedule. Boy was extremely knowledgeable and very personable. We plan on returning in the future and will definitely try to book with Boy. I 100% recommend this tour and this tour guide for all your Normandy needs.

Fantastic tour and one of the best that we’ve been on. Boy was so knowledgeable and we saw so much that we wouldn’t have seen on other tours. Highly recommend. This is the tour you want to be on!

An incredible day. Boy was a wonderful guide. Extremely personable and knowledgeable. He led us to the American Cemetery, Omaha and Utah beaches and a number of towns and other out of the way places. His passion for the subject was contagious His descriptions of the events and the men and woman of the Normandy campaign captured both the glory and brutality of this important event in world history. We couldn’t recommend this tour any higher.

We loved our full day tour with Matt. He knew the history and told the story so well even our young teens were captivated. I think Matt as our guide is what made this tour a five star tour. He took us to all the locations, told us the history and the personal stories- really humanized the locations and experiences of WW 2.

Boy Eysbroek was our private tour guide for a group of 6 from ages 9 to 69. He picked us up at our hotel in Bayeux and then proceeded to take us to the Normandy cemetery and Memorial for WWII showing large maps of all the forces and their mission. Despite the rain it was awe inspiring. On to Omaha beach, Utah beach, lunch, then several towns rich with WWII history. Boy had met dozens of WWII visiting veterans and shared some of their memories as well. Pack a waterproof jacket, umbrella and waterproof shoes/boots if rainy😊

Our guide was passionate, engaged, professional and extremely knowledgeable. It is so very apparent from the moment you start he loves what he does. The day went so fast because we were captivated by the stores and information he shared. Highly recommend this tour.
