This was an absolutely fascinating tour with an extremely knowledgeable and passionate host. Although the topic is quite heavy and sad, it was incredibly interesting. We went to all of the important sites. The tour guide was an absolutely pleasure and answered all our questions. Would suggest to anyone who will be in the area!

This tour was a gem, highly recommended! Romain,the tour guide, was exceptional. His knowledge of the history surrounding the Canadian landing at Juno was first class. His passion for the subject matter was very palpable. Too bad this tour is difficult to book because there are not a lot of dates available after July.

My wife's father had flown cover with the RCAF over Juno Beach, so, the tour was meaningful. _br/_ We were pleased with the depth of knowledge of our guide, who had to shorten the tour a bit to accommodate our_br/_ train schedule. Particularly impressive were the Juno Beach Center, Canada House and the Canadian Cemetery._br/_ Part of a bucket list taken care of very well.

I recommend this tour to anyone going to visit the D-Day beaches to do this tour and learn about Canada's involvement on that day. Eye opening!

Amazing tour. Guide was incredible and spent time looking up the specific history of my relative and showing me historical places, monuments, etc. relevant to him. Even knew of his regiment and showed me where it landed on the beach, pointed out people who would have fought alongside him, and EVEN knew of a book in the Juno Beach Book Store that had a quote from my grandfather. Incredible. His historical knowledge of the Canadian involvement in WWII was extremely impressive for a non-Canadian. Kudos.

Amazing, we had such an amazing time. Sonny was an awesome tour guide. I learned so much, and the experience was very emotional at times for me. These young men enlisted to go fight a war that they were not required to go fight. It sure made me proud to be a Canadian.

''Tis was the second year in a row that we took this tour, this time with our youngest adult son. We had a different guide but one who was no less knowledgeable and engaging as the last. This is a great tour. It will help keep an important part of history alive.

The absolute highlight of my time in France. Our guide, Antoine, was engaging, friendly, knowledgeable and very well prepared with visual aids and anecdotes about many individuals, towns, and strategies. The thought of what happened on that beach, the displays and movies at the Juno Beach Centre, and the overwhelming sight of the cemeteries was extremely moving. I cannot recommend this highly enough.

Gwin was a very good guide. Very Knowledgeable on Canadian history._br/_ Juno Beach museum was very informative and interesting._br/_ Abbaye de Verdennes was vary touching and frustrating at the same time when you see how the Canadian prisoners met their fate. The Canadian cemetery is also very touching._br/_ He is a great guide for history buffs if you appreciate fine details._br/_ Highly recommended.

Half day tour - Anne-Sofie, our guide was very well informed. She was able to answer any questions we had. She was very personable and since everyone had been on at least one tour already, she adjusted the tour by sharing anecdotes which occurred at the sites. we were very happy to have taken this tour

Excellent tour - great value for the money.
Review by: Charles H E, November 2016
Lots of interesting facts. Rushed to see everything in the planned time of 5 hours.
Review by: Marilyn W, October 2016
Definitely a very moving and interesting tour. Our guide Sunny has familial ties her grandparents with surviving the war and shared some of their personal stories. I would encourage anyone who goes on this tour to bring along some bottled water as there are no stops for refreshments and it involves quite a bit of walking.

Wonderful experience. Guide was very informed.

Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, who could not do enough for the four of us on the tour.
Review by: Rhonda E, August 2016
Booked a 5 hour Canadian War Memorial tour for our group of 5 4 adults and 1 9 yr old. Karine was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable about all of the events and details surrounding the Juno Beach invasion. While driving, she was always telling us history and stories so the time flew by even in between the various stops. The Canadian War Museum was especially moving. I would highly recommend the tour.
