Beware of British tour guides who slant American history.
**Shorter version:**
Normandy Private Tours, U.S. Beaches private tour, Aug. 21, 2026. Guide Phillip, British-born and raised near Bordeaux, covered Omaha, the U.S. cemetery, and Pointe du Hoc. We dropped Utah at his suggestion. He downplayed American heroism and the fight for Pointe du Hoc. His statistics did not match academic histories, and when challenged he shrugged it off. The day felt rushed and minimal. He was one of two British guides who did this; a Belgian guide did not. If you book Normandy Private Tours for the American beaches, decide the itinerary yourself. Do not drop Utah just to save time. Ask in advance how the guide will treat Omaha, the cemetery, and Pointe du Hoc, and whether the commentary will follow established military history. Study D-Day yourself before you go so you can recognize a thin or slanted narrative.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour to the Normandy D Day Beaches and the American Cemetery. Our driver/guide, Gilani, was accommodating, knowledgeable, interesting, and especially courteous. He organized our stops to maximize what we wanted to experience, and to make the most of our day. He brought us to a restaurant in Normandy for lunch, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Above all, our tour was exceptional, and I would highly recommend it, and Gilani to accompany you.
