Willem’s storytelling combined with his WWll jeep retracing the historical steps of our brave soldiers was the highlight
Iceberg29, Aug 2024
Being picked up in a WW2 jeep added an extra layer of authenticity to the experience, and Willem's enthusiasm as he took us to each historical site was truly infectious. What stood out the most was Willem's ability to bring the history to life through his stories. At every stop, he shared fascinating anecdotes and details that allowed us to emotionally connect with the experiences of the young soldiers who fought bravely during World War II.
Willem's passion for the subject was evident, and his storytelling painted a vivid picture of what it must have been like for the paratroopers & gliders. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in history, particularly the 82nd Airborne Paratroopers in WW2. Willem's expertise and dedication to providing a meaningful experience make this tour a must-do for history enthusiasts. Thank you, Willem, for a memorable and enlightening journey through the footsteps of these courageous soldiers.
The highlight of our trip!

I took my dad to Normandy, it was his first time visiting, so I thought the best way for him to see Normandy was in an authentic WW2 Jeep! Willem is an excellent guide with so many stories to tell. Riding in the Jeep is such an amazing way to experience where the paratroopers landed on D Day, learning so much whilst following in their footsteps! Willem has a wealth of knowledge and understanding and can tailor the tour to particular sites you want to see. We did the 101st Airborne tour, and hopefully will be back soon to do the 82nd Airborne with Willem!
The best of the BEST!!

D-Day Your Way/Willem is an amazing tour guide and an absolute MUST when going to Normandy!!! We were introduced to him through an incredible program called Bridge2History as he served as our tour guide for many days while in Normandy. He’s exceptional with both children and adults as our group was compromised of kids ages 10-12 & their guardians. There wasn’t a place we went to that he didn’t know loads about!! Equipped with both black & white photos from the past & his vast knowledge of WWII and the allied invasion, I cannot imagine seeing Normandy without his expertise! I’ve already recommended him to several people I know headed to Normandy as he is truly the absolute best!!!
Amazing tour!

Amazing trip through the Normandy battlefields with a focus on 101st and 82nd Airborne. Willem has brought us really close to what happened and this all in a WW2 Willys Jeep. His maps and knowledge bring an extra dimension and makes you really visualize what happened nearly 80 years ago. Worth to do it again for a different part of the Normandy front.
