Great tour.... Picked us seamlessly at our hotel, grabbed people from one other hotel and headed out. Once there, we were handed off to our guide nice lady whom passed headphones and transponders so we could hear her tour without having to be right next to her. Great idea!!! Since the palace can get packed and noisy. Very informative tour. Tour ended and you were allowed about 90min free time to do whatever before van came back. We used the time to have lunch/breakfast at crepe place very close and very good. Got dropped off at home around 3:30pm.

Rene did a great Jon telling stories that you will never get from a history book or even movie. He has many small unique stories that show the magnitude of the war. I highly suggest even if you are not very interested in WWII. He can point at several sights and tell you their history and stories.

***DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE*** TERRIBLE customer service. Have contacted them before the Covid pandemic asking for a refund. Did not receive it. Then Covid hit - asked MANY times via email for a refund. This trip was for 4 adults - for a cost of 476Euros. There have been so many emails - and they keep saying that a refund is in the works. First they said immediately, then they said 6 months. I cannot recommend this tour operator due to this blatant disrespect of their customers. I need these funds back. I was out of work for more than 8 months - and this is really unacceptable.

Six of us were on a cruise that stopped at Le Havre. Two of us had been to Normandy three times previously and four had not visited the area . We had reached out to another tour company, but it could not accommodate us and recommended Lena. It was very fortuitous for us!! After our initial plan proved to be too ambitious, Lena worked with us to select the places our group particularly wanted to visit in the Utah and Omaha beach areas. She picked us up in Le Havre from our cruise ship (her car is quite comfortable for 6 adults). While heading towards Utah Beach, she provided a thorough overview of the German preparations and the Allies' intentions. Our first stop was Ste. Mere Eglise and we worked eastward, stopping at Pointe du Hoc, WN62/1st Infantry Division Monument, the American Cemetery, and for lunch. She provided an operational understanding of events as they unfolded, but also the individual human stories related to these events. She was able to answer all of our questions. All of us learned a great deal. Lena was most informative, an expert on D-Day history, and an excellent story teller, She had illustrative photos and charts that greatly added to our understanding of the events. We hope someday to return to Normandy and complete the British and Canadian sectors. If we do return, we will take another tour with Lena! She returned us to the ship with ample time remaining. We are very glad she could be our guide for the day. It was a memorable and moving day for us all.

Few things were more important to me on my bucket than visiting the beaches of Normandy and the American Cemetery. I had one chance to get this right and did a lot of web searching to find the perfect company and guide. Mike's knowledge of the history of the area and that all important day of June 6th, 1944 was all I could have wanted and more than I expected. To this day, after visiting over 20 countries, my Wife and I consider this tour to be our favorite all time excursion. I hope to return one day post covid and do more exploring with Mike and maybe spend some time at His and Deb's new B&B. Don't miss this one.

We visited desiring a "splurge" on the coast and experience of an all day tour of WWII spots in Normandy. We LOVED Bayeux Shuttle. It was worth every penny. Mike was our guide and his passion and knowledge shined through. He was truly one of the best tour guides we've ever had the pleasure of spending time with. We loved the flow of the full day tour - starting at the German cemetery and ending at the American Cemetery, very strategically, which you learn about why on the tour. Mike even researched a family member whose landing on Utah Beach we were curious about, before we arrived the for the tour. The vans are modern and are outfitted with tv screens that play informative videos that enhance the experience as you go from one location to the next.

I struggled to find a tour from Bayeux to Omaha Beach at first, as many tour companies are currently not operating (or not operating on weekends). Finally I came across Normandy Sightseeing Tours and I'm very glad I joined their half-day tour to Pointe du Hoc, Omaha Beach and the American cemetery. Guide Adrien was very knowledgeable and friendly, and conducted the tour in both French and perfect English. We were a small group of just three people, so there was plenty of opportunity to ask questions. We also had a bit of free time to walk around and take pictures in Omaha Beach and the cemetery, which I appreciated.
