Normandy D-Day Landing Beaches Day Trip with Cider Tasting & Lunch from Paris

Despite our anticipation and the extensive communication we received beforehand, our tour was unexpectedly canceled just 1.5 hours after its scheduled start at 7:00 AM. This was particularly disheartening given the assurances we had about punctuality and the potential impact of the Olympics on our trip. Upon arrival, we were advised to be 20 minutes early, but we encountered significant disorganization. The tour guide failed to communicate effectively, leaving us relying on word of mouth from other guests. Initially delayed by 30 minutes due to ‘Olympic road closures,’ which seemed inconsistent with the information we received, the delay extended to two hours. Despite the situation, we were prepared to wait, understanding the significance of the visit.

However, further delays and lack of clear updates led to frustration, culminating in the abrupt cancellation of the tour. The reason given—that we were already upset and likely to leave negative reviews—was both unprofessional and disappointing.

The cemetery was very emotional for me to feel the loss and sacrifice of so many young men for our freedom. Our guide Daniel was excellent. He went above and beyond what was expected and truly made it a memorable day!

Daniel was very knowledgeable and shared great stories. Truly cares and loves his job! Took the time to talk to each group individually.

Great and knowledgeable tour guide Daniel. Wish more time was allowed at the Omaha beach visitor center but was worth the day trip from Paris.

Daniel was incredible. The tour was well organized and Daniel was an incredible orator. I’d recommend his tour to anyone!
