Our guide (Regis) was personable, knowledgeable, and has a passion for the history. Great tour. My son and I enjoyed it immensely. Only wish my schedule had allowed for a full day experience.

Regis nous a emmené sur les plages du débarquement en relatant l’histoire détaillée du 6 juin 44, la préparation des troupes, la stratégie d’attaque des belligérants et en étayant de quelques anecdotes. Nous sommes allés voir les blockhaus sans pour autant y pénétrer à cause du covid. Nous avons également visité le beau cimetière américain tiré à quatre épingles ! Puis nous avons terminé notre périple par la visite du musée Overland (inclus dans la prestation). Le tout en 5 heures. Regis est un orateur passionné et passionnant qui a su nous intéresser nous qui ne sommes pas des férus d’histoire. A conseiller.
