Summary:
Our guide Anthony was so very knowledgeable and he began the tour by finding out how much we knew and then started the D-day story at the beginning. We as a group were keen to learn as much as possible at all the points of interest that we stopped at on both days and thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. Despite the weather not be very favourable the morning of the second day it gave us a realistic view of what the soldiers had to deal with at the landing sites. We would give this tour a 5+ rating and would recommend it to any one of our friends or family.
