My tours
D-Day private guided tours of the American beaches and other sectors with Trevor Standefer
About myself
Made in Texas, born in Normandy !
Being an American/French citizen & having lived both in the States and France gave me a dual culture philosophy with French expertise but also American “know-how” and friendliness.
Also a “plus”, having no accent in either language makes it easier for American clients to understand me.
After working briefly for CNN during the 60th Anniversary of the D-Day landings, I knew that I wanted to share my passion on the subject of WWII and became a guide, specialized in the Battle of Normandy working first for Battlebus, a leading tour company in the area at the time. I fell for the beauty of Normandy, and decided to stay.
In 2010 I created my own company “AMERICAN-DDAY-TOURS” and I now live 8 miles from Omaha Beach. Over the years I have met veterans and on my tours, will tell you about their experiences but also the personal family stories told by my grand-parents who lived in Normandy under the occupation, D-Day and the days following the liberation.

If more than 4 people I have several options :
I'll rent the van ( 5 to 8 people ) for you but if you already have your own van, I can get in and I'll adjust your tour price,
Or I will give you my DL and you can add it on your rental agreement for the day(s) of touring.
