We debated if we should do a private tour of Normandy as opposed to a small group tour and we're so glad we went private. Our guide Jane and her husband were amazing and provided so much knowledge and context around Operation Overlord and D-Day itself that we truly got so much more out of it than if we were left to our devices or in a larger group when you're not always able to hear or ask questions. For such an important and emotional event in history my husband and I both felt we made the right decision. I wish that every American had the opportunity to see and learn what we did on this day trip -- I highly recommend it.
