Wonderful tour, great guide
Nancy_M, Jun 2023
Our guide, Pascal, was able to shift our tour around a little bit so we could see the flag ceremony at the American cemetery. Very moving. That was one highlight but Pascal was so knowledgeable and gave us so much good information! We are really pleased with this half day tour!
A must do.
Mariann_C, May 2023
Just a wonderful trip all around. Camille, Cammie, was our guide and boy what a great and thorough job she did. She majored in English so understanding her was not an issue, but you would think she was a history major as her knowledge of all things Normandy was vast. Trip, Cammie, was punctual, kind, considerate when I lost my way and found me walking the wrong way back to the van, fun and energetic. Oh, and we saw everything that we expected to see on the four hour tour. A must do.

Excellent tour, just the right length
Noel_A, May 2023
I had a great time on the afternoon tour that starts at 2:00. It was easy to locate the guide once I arrived in Bayeux. The tour was led by a very knowledgeable guide, who happened to be the only female guide. The tour included historical locations and information, the D-Day battlefield sights, and memorials.
Wonderful experience
Pete_M, May 2023
We did the half day D-day tour from Bayeux and loved it. Juliette, our guide was wonderful - friendly, knowledgeable and get demeanor. Pont Hoc was probably the highlight for us although the cemetery was certainly powerful and Omaha beach was interesting. I’m so glad we booked and took this tour.

Great condensed tour for our family
Gabrielle_D, Apr 2023
We had a wonderful tour. Cami was very knowledgeable and kind. She was also a good and safe driver. The car was nice and spacious. We learned a lot and got to see many important things in a condensed period time ending just in time for taps ceremony at the American cemetery. Perfect for adults or those traveling with teens or older kids.
