Sunny put together a great tour of Normandy and articulated the History of WWII with the backdrop of how the architecture played a role in the war. She was very good.

Our driver Thierry picked us up on time and took us to meet with our tour Guide. Anne Sophie was our tour guide and after talking to us customized a tour that would take us to see everything we wanted. She was very knowledgeable and we left feeling that our day was well spent learning about Normandy in a way we didn’t before. Thierry was a great driver and even though he didn’t speak English we managed to communicate quite well.

Both our driver and guide were great. When the French speaking driver met us, it would have been nice to know that we were also meeting an English speaking guide. That may be something that could have been mentioned in the trip details.

We were collected from our cruise ship at Le Havre by Thibeau, who then drove us to the Merville Battery, Pegasus Bridge and both the English D-Day beaches, with us spending time at each and within The British Normandy Memorial. At the suggestion of Thibeau we went for lunch in Bayeux, what a beautiful city. The cathedral, the history and of course the tapestry is there too, although we didn’t feel we had enough time to do that justice. We had lunch and went to the cathedral and Thibeau kindly escorted us for a brief walking tour, The English D-Day beaches/attractions aren’t as far from Le Harve as the American ones, so the stress is reduced when you have to get back to the ship. We were out from 8.30 and got back just before 5. With hindsight, a quick view of the tapestry could have been done too and still got back in time. Will just have to go again!

Thank you so much for your detailed review! We’re delighted to hear that Thibaud made your day exploring the English D-Day beaches and the beautiful city of Bayeux such a memorable experience. It sounds like you had a well-balanced itinerary, and we’re glad Thibaud’s suggestion to visit Bayeux added to your day. We’re sorry to hear there wasn’t quite enough time to fully appreciate the tapestry, but as you mentioned, it’s a perfect reason to visit again! We look forward to welcoming you back for another adventure in the future. Safe travels!

Our driver, although he spoke very little English, did a great job of navigating the roads and getting us to where we needed to be.
Our guide, Sunny, Having grown up in the area had personal stories that helped us connect to her family and ours. She was very knowledgeable about the facts and the beaches and the cemetery. We appreciated her!!
It was a very moving tour! it met our expectations and hopes.
I was disappointed that Viator charged Over double the price since it was in the month of the 80th anniversary even though it was two weeks after the anniversary.
