Pauline was great. Sadly we only had time for the shorter tour of roughly 3 hours. Could have listened to Pauline's interesting and insightful narration the whole day 😁

Great detailed oriented tour
John_G, September 2026
Great tour with a knowledgeable guide covering the historic aspects in depth, Morgane had a binder of maps and photos she used to explain in depth aspects of the invasion. Tip: be patient waiting for pickup as there will be many vans and buses there at the same time, but the drivers will walk the crowd with signs showing the names of who they are picking up,
