We cannot say enough good about our day with Jonathan! He is a superb host… extremely knowledgeable, personable and willing to customize according to your interests. You will not be disappointed; we could not have been happier with our experience! The Henagans

We loved our time with Jonathan! Booked a private tour for the four of us (including our 15 & 12 year olds). He picked us up at our hotel & off we went tracing the U.S. on June 6th, 1944. While we hit the major spots, he took us to some off the beaten path, lesser known areas of importance on that day which we loved. His passion for history is unmatched. He is SO knowledgeable & I could have listened to him for days. If we ever get the chance to come back, I will absolutely book him again. Highly recommend!

My wife Lynn and I had the most memorable experience of our entire 10-day trip to France with Jonathan of Normandy History Tours. We were based in Paris and took the train up to Bayeux where we stayed overnight. Jonathan was kind enough to pick us up at the train station for his 1/2 Day WW2 American Sector tour and drop us off at our hotel in Bayeux after the tour. He is extremely knowledgeable of all aspects of WW2 and the Normandy invasion. We researched many tour companies before choosing Normandy History Tours and are convinced we found the best. Highly recommend.

My wife and I visited in April '23 and wanted to see specific things. Johnathan took us on a one-day tour concentrating on the US Airborne Landings, in particular the 507 PIR. He also gave us an overall tour of the Beaches and coast, all in a day. We could not have done it without him and explored memorials we did not know existed. I also achieved a long time goal of visiting my great Uncle's grave (PVT Charles Coates) and saying a Prayer of Thanks for his sacrifice. The cost for a private non-standard tour was not small, but it was more than worth every Euro ! Thanks again, Jonathan !

Our trip to Normandy was absolutely perfect thanks to our tour guide Jonathan!! He was waiting for us at the train station in Bayeux (from Paris) and we spent the first day touring around the sites including Utah Beach. We stayed in darling Bayeux at the beautiful Hotel Lara then had Jonathan pick us up the next morning to do a full day of the American sites including Point du Hoc, Omaha Beach and the American cemetery. Jonathan was a wealth of knowledge and could answer any and all questions that we had so well!! He made our visit to Normandy perfect 💯!!
