Full day Canadian D-Day tour

Born and raised in the Netherlands, from a very young age I have been passionate about WW2 military history. I'm an avid collector of wartime memorabilia and for 40 years I have taken part in a WW2 re-enactments and living history events in the broadest form, giving presentations in schools, worked as an extra and historical advisor for film and tv productions. After having served in the Dutch Army for 5 years, and working as a graphic designer for 15, I became a bi-lingual tour guide at Leeds Castle, England, when in 2014 the opportunity arose to become a full-time D-Day tour guide in Normandy which I grabbed with both hands! I have now been a professional tour guide for over 11 years. Over many years I was involved in writing and publishing WW2-related military-historical articles, and in 2019 I presented a Youtube documentary about the 29th Infantry Division's battles around our village of Saint Clair sur l'Elle in June 1944. With my military background, my passion for and sharing of WW2 military history, involvement in historical events and an established guiding experience, I can offer you the best possible personal D-Day tour experience. I am looking forward to showing you the D-Day landing beaches and battlefields of Normandy!
