An amazing trip! Not only was Peter a wealth of information about the invasion of Normandy, but the surrounding areas as well. Getting the history from the point of view of several locals who still maintained family estates made things come to life for me. It was a great trip with great accommodations and food, and best of all people. Thank you Peter and Candy for making this a trip of a lifetime!

This was an historical tour commemorating the 80th anniversary of D-Day. The detailed planning was impeccable and every event or commemoration was well-planned, executed with the French and with our trip leader. I so enjoyed our 12 days together and had the opportunity to visit my Dad's landing beach and monument.

My wife and I both rate this trip as 10/10. My initial concern was that my wife would be bored while I nerded out on DDay history, however she was enthralled by leader Peter C's explanations and site choices. We thought the schedule was perfectly balanced: the learning pace was steady however there was ample time to enjoy the beautiful and historic town of Bayeux and environs. Peter is well networked in the local community, and it was humbling to witness the sincere appreciation of the local Norman townspeople. This is an exceptional experience for anyone with an interest in history, and an all-around superior value.

If you really want to know about D-Day and what was really happening during World War II this trip is for you. Pete is a wealth of information when it comes to the history, but also the military background to provide context of what led up to D-Day, and the days and weeks that followed. You'll have a chance to visit places most don't during a trip to Normandy, and really have a chance to meet and engage with local people. The trip is extremely well organized with plenty to keep you busy but also enough downtime in the evening to enjoy the town. I can absolutely see myself traveling with this group again in the future.

Thus was a wonderful trip led by a knowledgeable historian, Pete Combee. If folks want to learn more about the rich WWII history in this area, then this trip is perfect for them. Great accommodations in Paris and Bayeux. Kate Coffey at EDU trips was very helpful too! She’s top notch
