Hands Down Best Tour!!! - This is hands down the best tour I have ever been on! Our guide, Boy, has extensive knowledge about the area and about WWII. He lives in the area and has spent years researching and meeting with the veterans. He shares their personal stories and other stories that are not well known. He is like a walking history book. Even when we were driving to each location, he could tell us the history of the places we passed. For example, he showed us places where US soldiers were first buried prior to the creation of the American Cemetery Memorial, the fields that were flooded by the German army, and a German grave site. Boy also took us to a special place that most people don’t get to go. I went on the tour with my husband, our parents and 2 kids (ages 9 and 11). Boy made the tour fun and interesting and was very patient with the kids. I highly recommend taking this tour if you are in the area. I guarantee you will see and learn things you didn’t learn in history class. Boy, thank you for an amazing day!!

The cost is worth the experience - Our family of four (two tweens and two adults) had an amazing time. The tour was amazing and took us places that we could have never gone or experienced on a large group tour - every question we asked, Boy knew the answer. He gave an appropriate amount of time to take everything in and the day flew by and Boy was not concerned about making sure we wrapped up at a certain time but cared most that we had a great experience. Absolutely worth the cost. I had no clue how much there was to see, and my only regret is that we didn't plan an extra day to go back and explore some more.

Moving and engaging, don’t miss! - Boy has accomplished the very difficult task in creating a tour that successfully walks the fine line of respecting the tremendous gravity of the loss of life at Normandy while preventing the day from becoming too overwhelming with moments of levity and inspiring stories of the Allied forces and veterans. It will not be a day my companions or I will forget anytime soon. Boy was a pleasure to work with leading up to our tour and accommodated the train schedule to and from Paris by condensing an abridged version of a full day tour into a shorter time period. You will not regret booking with Boy!

Best Tour Ever - Outside of the birth of my children, my marriage, and attending the Masters, I haven’t looked forward to a day more than this. Touring the D-Day battlefield has always been on the top of my bucket list. My already high expectations were exceeded. Our tour guide (Boy) could not have been better: friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. He picked us up promptly at our hotel and we hit every American site on my list (mind you, I didn’t ask for them). The American Cemetery, Omaha, Utah, Pointe du Hoc, Breicort Manner, and Ste. Marie Eglise, while throwing in a few extras. I can’t say enough about how wonderful this tour was. A thousand thumbs up. Best tour ever.

Normandy Private Guided Tour Like NO OTHER! - There's no other guide like Boy. If you want to know everything about D-Day, then this is the tour for you. Boy takes all of his knowledge about the event and really helps you get to know individual soldiers and their stories. Even further, I'm almost sure there are parts of the tour that most others don't see because Boy has the hook ups 😄 This is definitely something that is worth every penny and the value that you get back is amazing. Highly recommended!

Can’t recommend enough! - My family had an absolutely amazing d-day tour with Boy! I have done another tour of the American sites and he gave so much more information at the sites and stopped at other lesser known spots along the way! Boy has met veterans throughout the years and was able to pass along stories he has heard from them that really make the day even more special than it already was. I couldn’t recommend this tour company enough!

Like stepping back in time - Wow! What an amazing tour. Visiting Normandy to pay my respects to the greatest generation has been a bucket list item for me for so long. Boy, our guide, gave us a full day tour that me, my wife and close friends cannot stop talking about. I now realize that even a day touring and trying to experience on D-day and after is not enough but Boy did all he could to help us experience the enormity of that day and months after. His passion and knowledge was amazing and his ability to tell and show us individual stories of soldiers and show us places we’d never see or find alone made it all worthwhile. It was like stepping back in time which is exactly what we wanted for the tour. Thank you Boy.

Best Your Guide...Ever!!! - This tour was absolutely wonderful!!! On April 30, 2024 we had a 4-person private all-day tour of the American Cemetery, Omaha and Utah Beaches and lots of places in between. In my opinion, Boy was the best tour guide that I've ever experienced. He clearly has a passion for WWII history. His knowledge comes not only from books and the internet, but also from first-hand interviews with people who directly experienced combat operations on June 6, 1944. Book his tour! You will not go wrong!

Amazing Experience - What a great experience!! Boy was the ultimate tour guide-so knowledgeable about the area and the events in WWII as well as the keeper of stories from the vets from that time as well. He is a consummate professional and very pleasant to be with-a true supporter of the Normandy vets who goes above and beyond to share their memories and experiences! You will be lucky to share the day with Boy!!

This tour is fantastic. ... - This tour is fantastic. As a history and WWII enthusiast, I was amazed through the entire day. What's more, my wife and young daughter were equally impressed. Our tour guide, Boy, was phenomenal. He moved the tour along at an appropriate pace while keeping our entire party engaged along the way. Logistically, he made everything seemless and you could tell it was a very well thought out schedule. Boy was extremely knowledgeable and very personable. We plan on returning in the future and will definitely try to book with Boy. I 100% recommend this tour and this tour guide for all your Normandy needs.
