Our driver & guide Kate was fantastic... she arrived on time and did everything all day to make our day most memorable. Gave enough time, asked us if we had more , specific wishes. She has great knowledge of WW2 and history in general... really chapeau to her. Very pleasant and of course seeing the WW2 invasion sites in a Willy-jeep was an everkasting experience. Well worth the money.. we recommend everyone to go on this tour 8 hours .. and even longer seemed like 4 ... so interesting, time flies under the experienced and very nice guidance of Kate ! We saw all we wanted and as a great plus, the weather was bright and beautiful.

Amazing tour.

Tammy_H, May 2023

Amazing tour. We had two jeeps. Thomas and Vincent were our guides and did an amazing job. Our 10 year old loves learning about WWII and enjoyed every minute of the tour. Dress warm. The breeze can be frigid.

The British cemetery. I am glad I did the tour. It made history come alive for me. I am hard of hearing, but I had no trouble understanding the guide. He spoke clearly and loud enough for me.

Epic Guide, Epic Normandy Experience.

Leslie_N, Jun 2022

We booked the all day Jeep tour and it was epic. Kate, our guide was extremely knowledgeable, well read and passionate about the history . Her family has lived in the area for 200 years and it showed. Her pride in the soldiers who gave so much in those dark days is truly in her blood. She brought us to lunch at a favorite restaurant and we had the best quiche we’ve ever tasted. Riding in the Jeep was so much fun and gave you a real sense of what it must have been like be there so many years ago. Kate brought history alive for us. Deeply appreciated the experience!
