Private tour landing beaches from Bayeux

We had a wonderful tour of Normandy with Jonathan!. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging and was a lot of fun to be with for six days. He tailored the itinerary to our interests — which were mainly World War II and William the Conqueror — and made sure we got the most of our experience. Jonathan is a native of Normandy and has vast knowledge of the history of the area. As a local, he knows lots of off-the-beaten path sites and hidden gems that were not on the usual tourist itinerary, which made the experience much more interesting and special. It felt like we got the insiders’s tour. And he seemed to know people in almost every town we visited! I highly recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a special tour of Normandy.

Jonathan was extremely organized and knowledgeable. We had one day to tour and he fit in so much history and information. We would have taken three days to cover what he was able to cover in 1 day. He is organized, knowledgeable and so accommodating. Jonathan listened to what we were looking for and tailored the tour to exactly what we wanted. The day was perfect!

Excellent tour of the Normandy beaches! Jonathan is a passionate, very friendly, and professional guide who knew how to bring history to life thanks to captivating anecdotes and clear explanations. A varied, enriching, and perfectly organized tour. I highly recommend it!

A wealth of knowledge and passion for history. Jonathan knew everyone's name within the first 5 minutes and we quickly felt like good friends. He accommodated our needs to move at a slower pace with patience and skill. We saw things we would have never noticed/seen without him. Highly recommend! Professional, prompt, and fun to be around.

Jonathan was an excellent guide. He had knowledge of all the little things that allowed us to learn the history of anything we looked at. He was informative on the drives to our locations, and had pictures from 1944 that helped shape our experience. As a family of 6, Jonathan was good with the kids. He helped us navigate the beaches and history of D-day, which was a bucket list item for my teen son. I appreciate his safe driving and great recommendations for other places to check out beyond our tour. He certainly made our experience much better, and it's well worth the investment to have a local who knows the area, the history, and the language. Highly recommend.

The best way to experience Normandy is with Jonathan! If you do one thing while visiting, make it a tour with him. He brought us to Omaha and Utah beaches, Sainte-Mere-Eglise, the American cemetery and the German cemetery. We learned so much, even my history buff husband was blown away. Also, the freedom of having him drive and explain things along the way gave us the opportunity to absorb information and really see what is around us, instead of having to figure out where we were going. We had our three children with us on the tour, and he was so patient with them, explained things so they could understand, and catered the tour to ensure they had fun, too. We couldn’t recommend Jonathan more - this was the highlight of our trip!

Jonathan was punctual with a clean, comfortable people carrier and was friendly and informative throughout the tour.

My husband and I spent the better part of three days with Jonathan touring the Normandy landing beaches and related sites. Both of us are well read on the subject but Jonathan's knowledge was so helpful and insightful. He was quick to change his agenda to meet our needs and questions. We could not have been more pleased with the presentation not guide.

Our family booked a tour of Utah beach and the surrounding area with Jonathan and we could not have been more pleased. Jonathan was everything you want in a tour guide - an engaging storyteller possessing vast knowledge who is extremely passionate about WW II history. Even after our flight to France was canceled, Jonathan was able to modify our tour to accommodate our changed schedule which allowed us to see everything we came to Bayeux to enjoy. Jonathan made our visit an enjoyable and memorable experience.

We loved our tour and were thankful to have Jonathan as a tour guide. He explained the history of D-Day very well and gave us time to walk around the sites at our own pace. We definitely recommend Jonathan if you are wanting to learn more about the history in the Normandy region.
