This is a private, live-guided trip of Normandy designed for two to seven people. In this tour you will visit the top six historical sites in Normandy.
Among the highlights are the best anti-war Caen Memorial and Museum, 360 Circular Cinema, Arromanches-les-Bains Viewpoint, Omaha Beaches with Signal Monument, Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer and Pointe du Hoc Rangers Monument.
The 14-hour tour will allow you to learn and discover a lot about the World War II history. While there is quite a lot of sites to cover, we ensure you that the tour will take place in a relaxed pace. You will be traveling in a comfortable vehicle, either Mercedes E220 business-class car for two people or Mercedes minivan if there are more than three people.
The tour includes pick-up and drop-off service as well. You also have the option of customizing the tour to your personal preferences.
The Southern European climates and historic towns of both Bordeaux and Portugal are as complimentary as their palettes—expect bold reds and excellent dessert wines, from Sauternes to Port. You'll have the opportunity to meet local vintners at French chateaux and Douro River Valley quintas, partake in active outings as you hike or bike amongst the vines, and sample the culinary delights that so often go hand in hand with great winemaking regions. Discover how well fresh-shucked Médoc oysters pair with the region’s white wines and snack on the delicious candied almonds produced in the mountaintop village of Castello Rodrigo.
Wine Roads of France & Portugal is a combination of Brilliant Bordeaux and Portugal, Spain & the Douro River Valley.

Interesting stops but a bit too much on WW I.
Tour of Quarry too long & too much standing. No place for a break.
Enjoyed Normandy & Minen Gate very much.
Our tour director was awesome! He listened to us & adjusted as he could to accommodate everyone.
Loved the very small group size!

I feel like everything went fairly well for it being a brand new trip. Trip manager and driver were great, very knowledgeable of the areas we visited. Very jam packed fun filled week!
This was a great trip to explore each city. Personally, this felt a bit more independent type travel (exploring the city by yourself or if you made a friend with them) vs other Contikis (more time with the group). Hotels were great and fantastic locations (centrally located near metros and the main train station). Fantastic free time add ons as well.
Amazing experience!! met the best people and had the best time! London to Athens was very jam packed and exciting, the greek island hopping was relaxing but also had lots of parties so it was a great way to end the trip!!
It was so fun. Sorta expensive but we had a great group of people and had a really great time at all the places. They liek to take us to karaoke bars so we didn’t really get to any other cool bars but it was still very fun and u could leave if u wanted.
Overall a great time and out tour leaver was sooooo amazing.
