Gilles Lorand, with Finding France, was our tour guide for the DDay Beaches private tour of Normandy. Gilles was very knowledgeable of the region and provided an excellent historical account of the DDay invasion. He was knowledgeable, accommodating, and humorous which made our tour extremely enjoyable. Our minivan was comfortable and clean and Gilles provided us with water for our trip. In addition, he took us to a distillery for apple cider/ wine tasting which was great fun! We highly recommend Gilles if you are planning a trip to the Beaches of Normandy or any tours around Paris. Gilles prepares his presentation after extensive research which provides a more accurate account of the events of the DDay invasion. This tour exceeded our expectations!!

We appreciated the thoughtfulness of the tour. Agnes was a wonderful guide and host, providing a strong depth of knowledge on D-Day, the sites as well as the backdrop that led-up to the battles at and around Normandy. Her willingness to tailor the experience to the group was great for our 3 children.

We had a lovely driver and guide for our day trip to Normandy, Gilles. He gave us background on WWII, and details of the American invasion even before we got to the beaches. It was interesting to see the bunkers and barricades. Buy the most moving part was the visit to the American cemetery. Thank you Gilles for making this a pleasant and memorable day. I can't believe he drove us from our hotel to Normandy and back in one day, and was set to go again the next day. And he was a great driver and a delightful person to spend the day with.
