 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Normandy Private Tours for our two different stops in France. Tibo was our driver both times. Communication prior to the trip was great. Tibo was on time, gave us lots of information and knew all of the great places to stop. We will definitely book again when we visit next.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was more of a private driver than a "tour."  In the end, it's all we really wanted. We were on a cruise and we needed a ride from the Port of LeHavre to Rouen, and then a return ride at the end of the day.  And that's what we got.  Our driver was nice and he did what we needed.  We were driven in a clean Mercedes Van. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of the price. 899 Euros (over $1000 US) was pretty hefty to drive 4 people about an hour each way.  Our concern was that we wanted to be sure that we had a ride, and we were willing to pay, so this isn't a complaint.  More of an observation.
