Excellent. because of our guide. - Our guide, Camille, is very passionate about what happened at Normandy and not forgetting the importance of that event and that showed in everything she showed us and spoke about. She made the day memorable for us and we are more appreciative of what happened at Normandy than before we took this tour.

A day in Normandy - Our tour guide was amazing and so knowledgeable about the history of WWII. She also knew history of the surrounding areas as well. She had a real passion for history. I heard information that I never knew.

A lot of bang for the bucks! - A wonderful day. Tolson was an incredible guide. We visited several historically significant places. The day was long but broken up by well-placed snack and restroom breaks. Free time and lunch in Normandy was wonderful. My friends all thought it was very worth the cost.

Excellent guide and info. But need more time at Juno Beach - Excellent tour guide, information, and driver. We picked this tour specifically as it was one of the few tours that included a visit to Juno Beach. However our stop at Juno Beach was only 15 minutes (barely enough time to walk to the beach, and visit the memorial). We only had a few minutes to visit the building before we had to leave. At least 30 minutes at Juno Beach would have been nice considering we spent hours at the other sites

Normandy day tour - Absolutely wanted to do this tour and so glad I did. The 4 hour bus ride was expected and not bad. A chance to rest. The weather was perfect. The problem was that the guide's heavy accent made it almost impossible to understand. Also, there was confusion about the included lunch. Food was great but service was super slow which meant limited time to walk around. Would recommend just eating on your own to save time.

Felt incomplete, traffic was dreadful - There was too little content for the price paid. We skipped at least one proposed stop. Our driver was a bit disengaged from the process. The vehicle was nicely comfortable, so that was appreciated. The tour guide was nice, and friendly. I would have enjoyed more content from him about the sites that we toured. The included lunch was average at best, but the location for it was cool, and the surroundings were interesting. Driving back to Paris took greater than 3.5 hours, so that was a drag.
