A private full day customisable tour of the Normandy beaches and other relevant D-Day sites with an informative and personable guide.
Gwen was incredibly knowledgeable and took us on our own personal tour showing us the places we wanted to visit and some other spots we didn’t know anything about. He has a vast knowledge of not only the landing sites but the Normandy coast history which made for a well rounded and enjoyable experience. Thank you so much Gwen, we can’t wait to come back and tour with you again.

Our tour guide was the best. Knew everything and even answered questions about the effects on the French civilians who suffered from the war

It has been a lifelong dream of mine since I was 12 years old to come to Normandie and visit Omaha and Utah Beaches and the US Cemetery.
Clementine made my dream a reality with a custom tour and insightful facts about out each beach and St. Mere Eglise.
Her knowledge about historical facts was impressive and entertaining. She made the day enjoyable on all aspects. I would highly recommend this tour and Clementine as your guide. We will be back to see more.

This was an incredible experience. Make sure you ask for Matthew to be your guide. We went to Bayeux, the German cemetery, Utah Beach, Ste-Mere-Eglise, Pointe du Hoc, Omaha Beach, the American cemetery. We weren’t rushed through anything. Well worth every dollar we spent.

My husband and I are back from a private Normandy Battleground Tour arranged and customized by the In the Footsteps Tour Group. The Private tour Guide was Robin from In the Footsteps .
Jo from In The Footsteps helped us plan a tour leaving from London To Normandy.
What a wonderful immersion!
Our guide Robin was extremely knowledgeable and customized the tour to include my preferences.
Robin was a fount of information and able to navigate a schedule that included all of our requested sites- the beaches-specific places.
We are so thankful for an unforgettable - personalized tour that met all of our expectations.
Great thanks.

The expert information and knowledge of the D day beaches passed on to us by our guide, Gwen. Visiting those places which a larger less informal group would not be able to do.

Our guide Jeremiah was knowledgeable, personable, and polite. He asked what we were most interested in seeing, and tailored our day to include what we most wanted to see. He took the time to fully explain what happened at each site we visited, and fully answered any questions we had. We would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the D-day invasion.

We recently had a private tour of the Normandy beaches with Jeremy as our guide, and it was an unforgettable experience. A local from Normandy, Jeremy provided enriching historical insights and personal stories from his family's World War II experiences. His extensive knowledge of Caen and Normandy history, combined with his passion, truly brought the sites to life.
Jeremy was an excellent driver, navigating the area in a clean, comfortable van. He tailored the tour to our interests, especially engaging our teenage son who is fascinated by World War II history. Jeremy's enthusiasm made the tour enjoyable and educational.
We visited key sites such as Sainte-Mere-Eglise, Utah Beach, Pointe du Hoc, Omaha Beach, the American Cemetery, and the Visitors Center, as well as the 101st Airborne Museum. We also enjoyed a delightful lunch together, adding a personal touch to the day.
Jeremy's ability to adapt the tour to our interests and his genuine passion for history made this a great experience. We highly recommend Jeremy as a tour guide for anyone visiting Normandy.
