Our guide Alexandra was incredible - super knowledgeable but also warm and personal
Our guide Alexandra was incredible - super knowledgeable but also warm and personal. She didn’t just walk us through history, she made us feel it. The visit to the Caen Memorial really set the tone, and then Omaha Beach, Pointe du Hoc, and the American Cemetery were just... powerful.

I
didn’t expect to be so moved myself.
My dad’s always been into WWII history, so I booked this as a surprise for him. He
was glued to every word the guide said. It was honestly emotional for both of us.

Emotional and historical
That was very moving. It’s tough period that should be learnt. These places should be visited. And the best way to do it with a guide who we help you around. Private transportation also guaranteed that we were following the route that we chose. Recommend it to everyone!

Historic Visit
We had a wonderful trip to Omaha Beach, a museum and the American Cemetery. I had been wanting to visit mainly due to the historical significance. Valerie was a wonderful guide, sharing the history of the area. Our driver, Roman, was also very helpful.

First Rate in every way. Made Dad’s trip and worth a day away from Paris even for the family non historians!
Dad’s bucket list successfully made and reluctant family also pleased for the day! Our tour accommodations first rate with accomplished historian/guide Valerie and safe and comfortable transport by Roman. We could not have been more pleased. And so lovely all around.
