We booked a 2 day comprehensive tour of the beaches, key museums and cemeteries. Jordan was extremely knowledgeable, affable, easy to talk with! He shared amazing personal stories and pictures of especially brave servicemen and even took us to unpublicized but important battle areas.
Thanks so much Jordan and also for the Pont Pont restaurant recco in Anjers. We loved it!

We booked a private tour with Bayeux Shuttles. We couldn’t be more pleased with the D-Day tour. Our guide Christian was more than a tour guide, he was a historian who knows his subject and the area. We spent a fun and informative day with Christian and can’t recommend him, and Bayeux Shuttles enough.

C’était vraiment une journée parfait. Jordan (notre guide) était top notch - très savant, très aimable, très sympa. C’était un expérience qu’on va rappeler souvent.
This was an incredible experience. Jordan our guide was so knowledgeable and so informative on so many unique topics surrounding the D-Day landing - we learned a lot, but never felt lectured to. He was extremely kind and welcoming, and made us feel like we were old friends. He brought us to the main sights, but also to very unique spots off the beaten path that were very moving with amazing stories of American heroism and sacrifice. We will remember the day for a long time to come, and strongly recommend. Thanks Jordan - you are the man!
