Antoine was incredibly informative and knowledgeable yet made the entire day fun and engaging while still honoring the courage and sacrifice of all involved. Highly recommend this tour.

We were disappointed in our guide. His English was poor and he was very difficult to understand (and I speak conversational French!). He seemed to have no passion for the sites we were visiting, so at one point we latched onto the end of another tour, which was a much better experience. And while I understand that he didn’t want to disturb people who might have wanted to sleep on the long ride, it would have been nice if he had described our locations or some history as we were on the road. We were also surprised that on a tour with a total van time of 6 hours, there was no bottled water available. The itinerary of the tour itself was great—lots to see and do and LEARN. But we felt we could have learned more with a more knowledgeable guide.

A very solemn experience in a sacred location. The small group tour was key. Our guide Felipe made all the difference in the world. He was so knowledgeable, patient and a wonderful personality

The tour itself was very moving. The four of us on this tour were quite impressed. Our tour guide was knowledgeable but was not as personable as other guides we have had in the past. Overall the experience was definitely worth it. However from Paris in a small mini van it was an extremely long day.

Antoine was wonderful. Fantastic day trip. The most moving and memorable experience. Standing where history happened opens one’s eyes to the absolute horror of war and how people came together to support democracy and freedom.

Took Blue Fox Tour to Normandy. Our guide, Enzo, was very informative, friendly and engaging. I would highly recommend this tour. It was our first time visiting. Very surreal.

Great tour guide. Very knowledgeable, patient, and kind. Kept tour going in a timely manner. It was a long tour, and there was a lot of walking; but it was worth it.

Julien was the perfect guide for this trip! He shared an awesome amount of historical information during our tour. His reverence for D-Day was appreciated by our group. The tour included great spots that really gave a sense of the magnitude of D-Day.

Excellent experience anyone interested in US/WW2 history. Our guide, Clementine was very knowledgeable and engaging. Long ride to get there but worthwhile. Highly recommend.

The guide, Enzo, was awesome. He was very knowledgeable and made our tour the best possible. He considered the tide and crowd levels to make sure we had the most time to enjoy and explore the sites. The smaller group make the tour more personal. Highly recommend.

The tour guide did a good job telling the story of the invasion and showed some examples of how the landscape was back 80 years ago.

We found the experience to be bitterly disappointing. We expected a day full of interesting and informative information about D-Day. What we received was little more than a van ride. The driver made no attempt during the drive to engage with us. During our ride to Normandy we expected stories and information outlining what we will be seeing to include impacts on the region and the local population. I believe our experience at the American cemetery best sums up our experience. We arrived a little over an hour before the cemetery closed. The driver's guidance was merely that we had an hour of free time. When we entered the museum an attentive security guard pointed out that the flag retirement ceremony was taking place and perhaps we would like to see that. We hurried to the ceremony only catching the last few minutes. When we returned to the van the driver told us he tries to get the tour to the cemetery for this ceremony but he did not tell us about the ceremony prior to arriving at the cemetery. As this will probably be our only opportunity to visit this historic site we feel that the experience provided was very poor. The driver indicated that this was his first solo attempt giving this tour. He exhibited little interest or knowledge of the events that transpired on this important day in world history. We have contacted both Viator and Blue Fox travel and they believe that they have provided an acceptable experience.

Many including the small towns near the landings. All stops were excellent. Omaha beach was very emotional as was the rangers and the cemetery.

Our guide, Bruno,was very nice (and the only reason the review is as high as a three) BUT our “tour” was basically being driven to Normandy to several stops and to a cider tasting. There was very little explanation of the sites we were seeing other than our reading placards at the sites. For an English language only guide his command of the English language was lacking. We chose Blue Fox because friends had told us what a wonderful experience they had and how knowledgeable their guide was. We believe Bruno can be a great guide but the company sent him out without adequate training. For what we paid we felt shortchanged.

Great experience! We chose to go with an experienced company and Blue Fox didn’t disappoint. Simon was great and got us around to all the sites in a very easy going style. Highly recommended.

I cannot recommend this tour enough! The entire day was amazing. It was the best part of our trip to Paris! Aaron was our tour guide and he was phenomenal! He has so much knowledge about D-Day and Canadas part, you can tell he truly enjoys and loves his job!
