Affiliate disclosure

Normandy Beaches Tour takes part in the GetYourGuide affiliate programme. If you book a tour through a link or booking panel on this site, GetYourGuide pays me a small commission. You pay exactly what you would have paid going to them directly — the commission comes out of their margin, not your ticket.

How it works in practice

Every booking link and every availability panel here carries an affiliate tag. Click one, book within the tracking window, and the sale is attributed to this site. That commission is what pays for the research: reading operator listings line by line, checking museum opening seasons against the museums’ own pages, and re-checking the things that move, such as the Pointe du Hoc renovation and the American Cemetery’s coming pre-registration system.

What it does not do

It does not decide the rankings. The clearest evidence of that is on the reviews page, where one of the six tours is described as the lowest-rated of the lot with the reasons spelled out, another is flagged for having only twenty-five reviews behind its perfect score, and a third is marked with a warning that one of its stops may be closed for renovation. A site optimising purely for commission would not write any of that.

It also does not affect what you pay, and it is not the reason no prices appear here. Prices are absent because they move with date, season and party size and a stale figure helps nobody — the fuller explanation is on the about page, and what actually changes the number is on what a tour costs.

Independence

This site is not a tour operator, not a booking agent, and not affiliated with the American Battle Monuments Commission, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, the Mémorial de Caen, the Juno Beach Centre or Normandy Tourism. No operator pays for placement or sees a page before it goes up. If you think something here reads as though it were bought, tell me.

Frequently asked questions

Does booking through this site cost me more?

No. You pay GetYourGuide’s normal price for the date you choose; the commission comes out of their side. The live figure is in the booking panel on each tour review.

Do operators pay to be listed here?

No. The six tours on the all-tours page were chosen on ratings, review volume and what their itineraries actually contain, and the honest caveats stay in whether the operator likes them or not.
