A thrilling, unique tour of historic Normandy D Day sites. - This is an excellent way in which to explore the D-Day historical sites, made all the better by our “motorbike pilot” and tour guide, Thomas. Merci Thomas! The thrill of being a sidecar or pillion passenger adds to the experience. When we stopped the different locations many people were eager to ask about the motorbike and take photos. It’s generally a unique way tour tour Normandy and I would absolutely do it again.

First Class D-Day Tour with a difference - This was without a doubt the highlight of our four day tour of the D-Day beaches, our Drivers (Adrian and Philip) were really informative, their knowledge was excellent. They also kept us entertained throughout our tour, all four of us on the tour had a great time. This is well worth booking if in Normandy. Thanks for your excellent services.

Exceeded Expectations - This 2-hour tour was exceptional in every way. Wish we could have booked a longer one. Phillip, Thomas and Remy were the perfect guides; prompt, courteous, adaptive, informative, pleasant and accommodating! We started our vacation in Scotland, traveled to London and then on to Paris. This excursion at the end of our journey was the all-time family favorite given the uniqueness of it and the genuine kindness of these three personable men. We couldn't have asked for a better experience to suit our history buff crew, and the sidecar experience was exciting as we rolled thru the quaint and charming towns. It exceeded our expectations and we are happy to leave them this glowing review. My husband Cliff commented that they represented the company exceptionally well and that given the opportunity, we'd book again. Don't hesitate to try this. There's not a better way to experience this historic event - D-Day. Respectfully, Cliff and Sylvia

Recommended to do this! - Have a nice and educational tour with Rémi and Jack. It was nice to experience this tour together with these 2 humorous, friendly gentlemen. Too bad we only booked 2 hours 🙃

The Second World War by sidecar - Rémy and Adrien two very cool guys that we spent some extraordinary time with my family on the English circuit. Thank you for these explanations that have shed a little more light on this sad tragedy. Good wind on your side cars! Adrian

Thrilling and Chilling - This is a great way to viscerally experience the Normandy countryside (whizzing through it) AND to get a personalised tour of the key D-Day sites. We thoroughly enjoyed the bikes (heads up: the guys don't potter around, it's a proper quick ride) and the passion and insights they had around the events of June 6th, 1944 were informative and sobering. In summary, the bikes are thrilling, and the events chilling, but as a way to cram a lot into 2 hours, this would be very hard to beat.

2 Hour tour - A great experience (2-hour). Riding sidecar through the Normandy countryside, arriving at poignant D-Day locations, was great fun… while also moving. The tour guide - Philippe - was a fountain of knowledge. I thought I knew a lot about D-Day history, but he managed to still surprise me with his depth of intricate knowledge. Especially about the sites we visited. I would definitively recommend it. To the extent that I would do this again….just selecting one of the longer tours next time.
