A must see

A MUST see for every person alive on this planet so this will never be forgotten and will be remembered.

Five stars, epic day!

Visited the awesome museum the first day and then the second day, I signed up to take the Omaha/Utah full day tour.
I loved it! The van was comfortable, the driver polite and skilled and my guide, Andrea was an absolute delight! She made all of the sites come alive with stories of the people who lived the actual events. There was a wealth of information and I feel that I got to see so much. Everything I wanted to see!
The lunch was also very tasty. Timing on all the stops was good, pace was excellent.
I looked all over for a tour and was baffled because there are a ton of options. This one had a great price for a full day tour and I figure who better to show me this than affiliates of the museum.
Five stars, epic day!

We highly recommend - Legacy Roads

Alexandra was awesome. She was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all our questions. She shared insights and stories we had not heard before. We highly recommend booking a tour of Caen with Legacy-Roads Guided Tours

It was a very special day - Legacy Roads

Oliver did a outstanding job. An unplanned incident where a little girl ran up to us in the middle of the beach, asked if I was a veteran and presented me with a veterans medal, left all of us in tears. Later, Oliver asked if I could be part of the Taps lowering of the flag, the request was granted on this Memorial Day. It was a very special day for this US Army veteran. I’m glad I followed my American Legion Commander’s advice and wore my Legion hat. The beach and cemetery tour was sobering, reflective and meaningful. Thank you.

wonderful D-Day tour - Legacy Roads

I had a wonderful D-Day tour with Andrea and Allan. They were friendly, knowledgeable, prompt and accommodating. Great full day tour of all the main D-Day sites. And the Memorial the next day was really good as well.

What a great experience - Legacy Roads

Having a small group to tour with, is so much better than a large bus. Our guide Oliver was a native English speaker and very knowledgeable about history of the region and World War II. Because our group already had a base knowledge of World War II he quickly adapted and tailored the tour so we get the best experience. Lunch was included and delicious!
