My family and I took the American Beaches Tour. It was fascinating and very well organized. I am very well read on the Normandy landings. The information and photographs that our guide provided was accurate and presented in a very interesting manner. What made the tour so enjoyable and interesting were the human interest stories and locations that are not... More

My husband ,myself and our 16 year old daughter booked a private,all day tour and Olivier was our tour guide. Alain, the owner, worked with us to assist us in selecting our tour date, booking our hotel in Bayeux and selecting the appropriate train to take from Paris. He was extremely helpful and never became in patience with us as... More

November 2, 2011. My wife, my 12 year old daughter and myself took the full day American sector tour with Oliver as our guide. We were picked up in Bayeux in a spacious and comfortable van. We were the last of the tours for the season so we had Oliver all to ourselves. What a day! Having not had the... More

I have no words to describe the high quality of the tour and the knowledge of our guide Oliver. 85 euros per person (plus tip) is very very cheap for what you have. More than 10 hours of tour (full day tour #3 ) and at the end you really want to have more. Fantastic. Firts class. We strongly recommend!!!! More

I went on Overlord's full day 'Band of Brothers' tour which took in Omaha Beach, Utah Beach and also the story and sites of the Airborne Divisions which landed. Standing on that beach (Omaha) and realising that so much carnage took place there was both overwhelming and humbling. The American Memorial was equally emotional - white crosses as far as... More

My husband and I enjoyed a full day tour. We had one other couple with us in the large comfortable van. We saw everything ( we enjoyed lots of off the normal track sites once our superb guide knew we had a friend who was one of the "Band of Brothers" and my father in law was Omaha Beach DDAY... More

I took the Tour # 2: Omaha / Utah Full Day Tour and such a wonderful tour hosted by Sean. It was such a unique experience and he is just fantastic. Not only is he a knowledgeable historian but he has such depth of emotion regarding the historical event. It is an experience that I will never forget and it... More

There are a few different tour companies in Normandy and when organising our trip, I was at a loss to know which one to pick as they all seemed to have pretty good reviews. I chose Overlord purely based on their good prices, their excellent reviews and the choice of tours they offer. I need not have worried. I will... More

I took my oldest grandson, 16, on an Overlord Tour, as part of a history tour of London, Paris and Southern Germany. For the Normandy portion, I chose the Overlord Tour Company. Our guide was personable and prompt, but most of all it was apparent his heart and soul were invested in telling this story. There were three other couples... More
