FRA beautiful day but disappointing in one respect. I paid a higher amount to book this particular tour as my friend recommended the company and raved about the lunch and restaurant. When the driver was taking us to Normandy, I commented on lunch, and he said, no, lunch is on your own. I think I'm due a refund of about $100 (or more). There were many other D Day/Normandy tours to choose from, but I paid extra for this benefit and we were very disappointed. Lunch added an additional $40 to our trip!

GBGreat way to see the French Riviera in a Day. This is the tour you want to take on day one of your arrival to figure out which part of cote d'azur you want to return to. It's a great way to orient yourself. Our guide wasn't quite as knowledgeble on certain historical issues and the SUV was severely uncomfortable, but all in all, it was a pretty good tour. It's basically a guided van around the coast.

GBaweful Worst booking experience ever and far too many things went wrong to even account for. They booked our trip to the Louvre on Sunday after we were set to arrive, leaving 1 hour to get from the airport to the Louvre and see all the art. The two days for hop on hop off bus tickets couldn't be used. When we showed up to the tour for Versailles we were told there would be no tour that day and we had to pay (again) for our own way and tickets to Versailles. Only our trip to the Eiffel tower was able to be used. So we paid for a tour of the Eiffel tower, tour of the Louvre, two days of hop on hop off bus access, and guided tour of Versailles. We received, tour of the Eiffel tower, tickets to the Louvre. 50% is far from a winning record.

GBAn outstanding tour, led by an outstanding tour guide. We boarded our bus in the Caen train station, were escorted to the Caen WWII Museum where we had a great tour with our guide, although the crowds were quite large. Then we boarded a smaller coach for our three-hour tour of five sites, including the American cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer. Our guide spoke fine English and his commentary was well researched and presented in an engaging manner. He had many photos to augment his discussion. We had just the right amount of time to visit each site before returning to the Caen train station. I would recommend this tour company to anyone wishing to visit these Normandy sites.

GBNot as well as I hoped Normandy is amazing. Our only problem was that the other people were Canadian so they spoke French and since our guide as French, he decided to pretty much stick with that language. They also spoke English so the French was more for the guide than for us. He was supposed to be an English speaking guide. His knowledge of the area was okay but the other man on the trip and I were better at explaining what happened on each beach. However, I wanted to get to Normandy and made it so that was the great part.
