Canadian Dieppe Tour from Le Havre

My name is Romain and I'm a professional battlefields tour guide in Normandy. I grew up in Western France, and very early on, I developed a particular interest in military history. I spent some of my childhood playing in ruined medieval castles and WW2 German bunkers on the coast. I remember watching the movie The Longest Day every year ! I started guiding 16 years ago, first as a summer job in several castles and medieval towns. I later studied History, Art History and Archaeology to become a certified Tour Guide, which happen in 2013. I arrived in Normandy in 2014 and started working first for a tour company, taking thousands of tourists on the landing beaches, which took me back on my old childhood passion ! I kept extending my knowledge, meeting veterans, family members which I took on their relative graves, and many passionate people. While on this job, I had the opportunity to guide in many other places, such as Mont-Saint-Michel, Giverny, Rouen, Honfleur or Saint-Malo. I am now working as an independent tour guide. I had the pleasure of participating in the award-winning documentary "Frog Fathers: Lessons from the Normandy Surf", as well as others small documentaries. I volunteered for the Best Defense Foundation, which brought back dozens of American WW2 veterans for the DDay Anniversaries. Finally, I had the chance of participating in the recovery of an American soldier who was Missing in Action: he is now buried at the Normandy American Cemetery. I am eager to share with you my passion and knowledge about French and Normandy History, and take you on a journey on the footsteps on the men who landed on June 6th 1944.
