No refunds even when country on strike
Kathleen L, Dec 2024
Could not get to area due to France strike and train shut down. Refused to refund. Very sad that no consideration was given for the circumstances of the country and limits to travel.

You can get to the area anyway because we propose you to go at Le Mans to help you : you decline. We offer you 110€. Mathieu
Good experience

The highlights were standing on Omaha Beach and touring the American cemetery. Both were very inspirational.

Best way to tour Normandy!

Mathieu, our tour guide, picked us up at our hotel and took us on an enjoyable tour of the beaches, sites, cemetery and cities in the Normandy area. His english audio segments, played between sites, allowed us to have a deep understanding of the specifics related to the places we were visiting and the events related to the Normandy invasion. Mathieu was courteous and flexible, allowing us to set the pace and see all of the sites. This was a great tour and well worth it - I highly recommend it.

Great Visit to Normandy
pjhmusic, Dec 2024
We never anticipated our trip to Normandy Beach to be so wonderful. Not only didn't we anticipate being the only ones on the trip but Mathew our guide was fantastic. Although we would have been picked up at our hotel for the tour, we decided to walk over to the Hotel La Fontaine which was only a few steps away. After meeting Mathew over a cup of coffee we were on our way. The Audioguide he provided before each stop was extremely informative and adding his own description of each stop made for a very memorable visit to Normandy Beach. We couldn't recommend this tour or guide high enough!
