This was the highlight of our French vacation. Jozef was spectacular--incredibly knowledgeable, personable, kind, and friendly, with a great sense of humor and understanding of the gravity of the things he was showing us. He had done a lot of deep research about my grandfather's experiences, which really created a powerful, personal day. What an incredible memory, carefully delivered. A very pleasant trip, highly recommended.

What an amazing unforgettable day. We really appreciate the personal attention Jozef paid to my dad who is named after his uncle who was killed in France and landed on Utah beach during WWII.

Private Day tour of Utah Beach and area
Our recent tour of Utah Beach & area with Jozef Prihoda co-owner of Private Trip.
Jozef is a very charismatic and knowledgeable person who shares a wealth of information in true story form that makes the history of the Normandy beaches come alive as he takes you to the sites. It truly was a wonderful life changing experience. Because it is a private tour company, you are able to design your own itinerary and Jozef will make suggestions if you are “open”. This aspect allowed us to visit a small church in Angoville (which we had read about ) as well as spend more time trekking Utah Beach in addition to visiting other sites. It truly was a very special day and we look forward to booking with him and Deborah again. ( This was our 2nd tour with their company).

Great historical Normandy Beaches Tour
Josef was amazing. Pickup from hotel and very well paced tour. We stopped for bathroom and coffee on our way. The guide gave us many options and allowed us to build our own experience with some added suggestions. It is a LONG day from Paris as a day trip but very doable. Felt like I was walking the sets of Saving Private Ryan.

worked out exactly as hoped
outstanding day. Guide was extremely knowledgeable and was able to discuss subtle details about the exact spots we were standing in. facilitated a great lunch at local restaurant with pre-arranged seating to beat the crowd. If you don't have time to stay in the area and are curious if this can be done from Paris, it was well worth the long day of driving for us to be able to walk and see these sites. Guide was great with kids, and allowed them to just play on the beach while we looked at other things.

Normandy
Joe was a terrific tour guide. He is the best we have ever had in all our travels! His knowledge off WWII and Normandy added so much to the enjoyment of this trip. I would highly recommend this tour with Joe.

Excellent Tour
This was an excellent tour experience. Jozef had contacted me prior to our tour for information about my uncle who jumped on DDay. He was with the 507th PIR and with his battalion and company Jozef knew where he had been. Our 2nd stop on the tour was likely the place where my uncle was - there was a plaque there with the captain my uncle had served with. Jozef suggested I bring 2 coins with me to bury in memory of my uncle. One went her by the sign for Le Merderet. We also went to other 507th memorial sites and buried another coin. As Jozef said "I am a story teller". That he was.
Jozef made the tour work for us. I would certainly recommend him to anyone wanting to have a memorable tour of Normandy.

Awesome Experience
Our tour guide, Josef, an incredibly knowledgeable and engaging person, who’s ability to recreate the historical details of the D-Day occurrence while taking us the whole length of the beach landings, including the airborne drop areas, made for a truly memorable and meaningful experience.

Emilie was a great guide,...
Emilie was a great guide, very knowledgeable of the history of Normandy D-Day. The American Cemetery will forever hold our respect and honor in our hearts. We will never forget this eye opening experience.
