Excursão aos Campos de Batalha do Dia D na Normandia e às Praias do Desembarque saindo de Paris

Fabricio was very informative, very accomodating and a very safe driver

We spent $500 AUD per person for this experience. The driver was doing 150km/h on the highway. The meeting location is a dodgy area in front of the Arc de Triomphe, and at 6:30 AM there were loud youth groups around. We spent a short amount of time at each location, but we did enjoy the tour. We stopped for lunch and had bathroom breaks. We were back 2 hours early, though. Also, the driver washed the van at a truck stop during our drive. Overall, I would suggest to others to hire a car for the day and do it themselves.

1. J'ai donné la mauvaise adresse de prise en charge, j'ai failli rater la visite. 2. Le van a une capacité de huit passagers (sans compter le chauffeur), avec deux petits sièges à côté du chauffeur. Comme j'étais le dernier à monter à bord, on m'a demandé de m'asseoir sur l'un des sièges à côté du chauffeur. Le gars avec qui je partageais le siège était un homme corpulent et devait souvent empiéter sur mon espace. J'étais extrêmement mal à l'aise pendant les heures de trajet aller-retour vers la Normandie (environ 6 heures au total). Les excuses constantes du gars assis à côté de moi n'ont rien arrangé.

No hotel pick up! Wrote to the local operator at least a week in advance but received no reply. We had to take the subway on our own at 5+ in the morning. The pick-up instructions were incorrect (the driver arrived at 06:45h instead of the stated meeting time of 06:30h), leaving us to stand in the cold. The pick-up point had no landmarks and was not sheltered. We thought we were in the wrong place until the driver pulled up at the road junction. The worst part of the trip was that the Overlord Museum was closed in winter (until early February). This was NOT made known to us. It was a huge disappointment. The surprising thing was that the guide himself did not know, even though this fact was published on the museum’s website. In fact, all the hotels and souvenir shops along Normandy Beach are closed in winter. The only good thing about the trip was that there were no crowds, so photos were good. The guide was average. I have reported all this to Klook and am awaiting some form of refund. I would not have chosen this tour if I had known that the museum was closed.
