The Best D-Day Tour - This was a very insightful tour of the American battlefields of D-Day and a very nice tour of the American Cemetary. The guide, Raphaelle, was extremely knowledgeable of the facts of the invasion and stories of individual soldiers as they went thru this time in their lives. She is enthusiastic of her subject and loves her job. She is mindful and considerate of her clients and their needs. You will count yourself fortunate to have had Raphaelle guide you on this tour.

Fantastic day and a reminder of the sacrifices made - We had a wonderful experience with Rafael. She was knowledgeable and brought to stories to life. We had someone that was disabled and she was quite accommodating with our group and still managed to get everything in. Would highly recommend her as a guide.

Amazing. Highly recommend. You would be lucky to have her as your guide - Raphaelle was our guide—-just my daughter and myself—and the experience was unbelievable. Raphaelle is incredibly personable, excellent communicator, and is filled with facts that truly were amazing to listen to. She knows so much about the area and was able to speak at length about any subject re our Normansy tour with precise details, many personal regarding particular soldiers or families or nuances of the story as if she was there herself. I must say it was a wonderful experience and it far exceeded our expectations, which were already quite high.

Normandy Discovery Tours - Normandy Discovery Tours gave us an enjoyable and very moving journey from D-Day thru the end of the campaign. They were so helpful coordinating our itinerary, reservations, and accommodating the several changes we made on the spot.
Our guide Noe was exceptional – enthusiastic with thorough & detailed knowledge. Our 4-day tour itinerary really brought home Overlord’s impact on France and in fact on all of Europe.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the region, sharing detailed historical insights and fascinating stories that made each place even more meaningful. Beyond his expertise, he was also kind, friendly, and always willing to answer our questions, which made the experience even more enjoyable and personal.
We strongly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Normandy. It was an unforgettable experience that will always be remembered as one of the most special moments of our lives.

Best tour of our Europe Trip - This tour was the highlight of our European trip. Our tour guide was amazing. Raphaëlle was the best guide. She was so knowledgeable and you could feel her love of Normandy just listening to her tell about the history. I highly recommend this tour and Rafael.

Great way to see the landing sights - Raphaëlle was an absolutely amazing guide. Super knowledgable about all the major events and had great little antidotes about people and places that really made everything weave together. We also adapted our tour slightly so we could see the sights we wanted and that was not an issue at all. Such a great, yet somber, day.

Just one great experience after another - After a great day touring the St Mere Eglise and 101st Airborne sites with Thomas and Flavie in WWII jeeps, we spent the next full day with Noe who was just as excited about his job as the others in this company. From Brecourt Manor to Arromanches, Noe customized our experience to tailor what we wanted to see. In particular he was prepared with a map and timetable of the 29th Division landings that help one of our companions understand where his father may have come ashore on Omaha Beach. His infectious spirit and love for what he does, as well as the explanations and objectives of the landings just made our day. We would recommend Noe and Normandy Tours in a heartbeat
