Guided Tour In An Old Convertible Car On The Côte De Nacre

Awesome! I really enjoyed it and the tour guide/driver was very kind and knowledgeable concerning the history. I give it two thumbs up!

10/10, very interesting insights into local architecture and history that you don’t get on the beaten track. Wonderful English spoken. Definitely worth it, added to which a lovely apple juice was served!

I absolutely loved this tour. Bernard was the sweetest and the car was adorable. I would recommend 100000 times!!! Whenever I need to take my mind to a peaceful place I will think of this time when I was driving throughout the Normandy countryside and along the beaches.

First of all I love the cute convertible. It was very comfortable and the breeze was welcome. It was amazing how my tour guide introduced me to so many interesting places in Normandy. He is informative and insightful. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon. Highly recommended!

We had a brilliant time with our knowledgeable host Bernard, exploring Ouistreham in the classic Citroen Dyane, stopping at historical sites and landmarks. A very fun and enriching experience with not too much walking for those who like a leisurely pace. We highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Normandy. An afternoon well spent and a very memorable experience.

I had the best time on this tour. Bernard was the best guide and took me to so many places. I would definitely recommend if you want a relaxed tour of the little beach towns and some history about the architecture, city construction, and the influence of WWII on the towns. When a doctor, yoga instructor, etc., asks me to take my mind to a quiet place, I will think of this afternoon I spent on the tour. Driving to see where the countryside meets the Channel was so peaceful. I learned such a variety of things. I wish I could describe the harmony I felt with the wind blowing in my hair and driving in this adorable car. Thank you for the great tour, Bernard!!! :)

A wonderful journey around Normandy, in a neat vintage Citroën Dyanne, but better than that is Bernard, who is a fount of knowledge of the area. We went to places not seen by the average tourist, I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Bernard.

Bernard was full of information, historical and architectural. The open-topped ride was comfortable and so much fun. I would recommend it everyone as a joyful way to see this area

Bernard was amazing! We had a delay in arriving from Caen- he was flexible and told us to not worry. He made us feel comfortable from the start. The car was adorable and he told us all about it. The tour was informative and fun. Bernard took us to places we would not have ventured on our own. We stopped midway for a delicious fresh apple cider break- what a nice treat! We would 100% recommend this tour with Bernard for an original, memorable experience.

We loved our trip along the coast with Bernard in the cute 2CV. He was very patient stopping whenever and wherever we wanted to take photos, showed us a variety of sights and we learned a lot about the history and culture of the area. Can recommend!

This was such a fun and unique way to experience the area. Bernard and the car were fab - almost felt like we were in a Pink Panther movie... great afternoon exploring the unique history and architecture of the area... away from all the tourists... Absolutely recommend!

Delightful Bernard took me on a wonderful tour of the Normandy coast and countryside through some of the historic but not overly touristy towns. He shared his knowledge and enthusiasm for local history which I really enjoyed. The car was charming and we putt-putted along at a leisurely pace. Merci beaucoup!

What a beautiful experience! The Dyane was a reference for my wife and a discovery for me. What a pleasure to "drive a car" again. It must be said that Bernard, our driver, is a big part of it. After 3 minutes of conversation, you feel like you have known him forever because he knows how to create a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. A passionate and captivating guide and storyteller, Bernard introduces you to the little stories that make up the big one. Time flies and the 3 hours pass at an incredible speed. Once back, we received a list of places worth visiting as well as some very good addresses. I would do it again without hesitation for the pleasure of driving in the company of an exceptional host!

A very pleasant and interesting tour of less touristic places of Normandy. We really enjoyed the ride with the very likeable Bernard in the old 2-CV!

Thanks again to you Bernard for this ride in your superb car it made us recall memories and this visit very enriching in history I highly recommend and your kindness she will patience

Couple walk of 3h00 in Dyane with Bernard, a well of science doubled with a kindness to any proof! Very original discovery of the mother of pearl coast, really nice! Recommended!

Road trip in Dyane accompanied by Bernard, learned driver. Super original and really enjoyable experience as a couple for my 60th birthday. Discovery of the mother-of-pearl coast, memorial sites. To do absolutely!!!

A fantastic experience this ride in a Citroën Dyana. The guide told a lot about architecture but also about WW2. He really took his time!! We enjoyed this beautiful tour through the French country together! Definitely recommended to go do if you want something different on holiday in Normandy!!!

We had a very pleasant afternoon despite the weather we made a good discovery and a very nice meeting and going back in time in dyane brings back memories again thank you See you soon perhaps for other routes and that we will do without hesitation again thank you

Beautiful afternoon, Monsieur Bernard is an inexhaustible guide on the landing, architecture and all the small anecdotes that accompany them ............. Again thank you for taking my concerns into account .............. my friend was delighted with this discovery .............. even reworked ....... Our entourage is already eager to come see you and your Diane ......... The two little Belgians...........

I arrive early, and I hear the engine noise and braking characteristic of this type of vehicle. We're capping together, it's hot! Here we go! 3 hours of pure happiness through some coastal villages of the landing beaches. Bernard knows all about the history of French and English men who paid with their lives to liberate France, through anecdotes largely unknown, an apple juice in hand! Further on, we will pay tribute to them! An unforgettable afternoon for nostalgics, D-Day history enthusiasts and twin-cylinder lovers, just like it is, Bernard! Thanks to you!

The tour with Bernard was a great experience, we saw a lot and received a lot of interesting information about places we would not have discovered without him. His English is excellent and it was a wonderful afternoon. We would book the tour again anytime!

Bernard is an exciting guide on architecture, landings, life stories! So good that we still wanted some 🤩and all in a super dyane that made us 40 years younger! Availability, smile, kindness and knowledge of the subject characterize our guide of a day..see you soon for another discovery!!don't change anything!!

Super discovery of the mother-of-pearl coast with Bernard and his sidekick Dyane bleu (magnificent). On board we enjoyed going back in time through unusual stories and anecdotes. Hard to come back to the present moment after this fascinating getaway but as they say "every good thing has an end". Don't miss this great adventure...

Very pleasant walk, hair in the wind with convertible Well commented tour with our guide and driver who is a great enthusiast and really very nice Thanks for the fresh apple juice break Ballad to do without hesitation Daniel Nathalie

Notre guide Bernard était très agréable. Il nous a fait passé un bon moment en nous instruisant. C'est une super sortie à recommander.

We had a very pleasant visit. Our guide, informed us all along the way. Recommended. Thank you, Bernard our guide.

Visite très enrichissante grâce à notre guide Bernard qui est très sympathique et prévenant. La Diane est très confortable malgré son grand âge et est rutilante. Le circuit proposé permet de connaître quelques secrets d'architecture, l'histoire et de découvrir de nouvelles villes ou villages qui valent le détour. Nous recommandons très fortement cette balade insolite de 3 heures.

J'ai passé une superbe balade en Dyane décapotable. Bernard sait rendre ce parcours attrayant en liant patrimoine et histoire. Et que dire de la Dyane ! Un moment inoubliable qui m'a rappelé des virées avec mon oncle. Merci pour tout Bernard et un grand merci à mes amis qui m'ont offert ce moment de partage.

Thank you to this gentleman for this timeless moment. Little time between sisters very pleasant! Beautiful road to you and thank you for your shares and your smile.

Bernard showed us wonderful place and explained. And that in absolutely adverse weather. We would never have seen many places on his route without him. The ride on the Diane was an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.

We had an enriching and peaceful time aboard this beautiful blue diane 6, led by Bernard, a curious Guide of the past while keeping our feet in the present. Just dosed, his explanations revived memories and increased our knowledge, they were not without humor. Very good, red apple juice. Thank you Bernard for this simple time of happiness.

Avant tout Monsieur Bernard qui d'emblée nous a donné envie de vivre ces quelques heures grâce à ses propos sur ce que nous allions découvrir. Puis toutes ces histoires de vies qui mettent des visages sur les lieux différents. Et le plus c'est cette envie de vouloir toujours plus être curieux et curieuses de découvrir notre patrimoine. Merci à Monsieur Bernard de son enthousiasme à faire partager ses connaissances.

Thank you to this adorable gentleman who makes us suspend time for a nice break in our turbulent life. Everything was perfect even the time in this nice car.

A walk in Dyane, with family, 2 adults, a child, and everyone could enjoy, whatever his place in the car. Bernard takes us through history, through the little stories that shape it. What a pleasure to take the time, when everything goes so fast around us. We're asking for more! We highly recommend this adventure to anyone who wants to discover the beautiful Côte de Nacre. Thanks again Bernard... and Dyane!

Superb walk on the coast of Mother of Pearl in Diane with its convertible roof! Bernard is passionate and very friendly. It allowed me to discover many anecdotes about the history of this region. It is an original and rewarding activity worth doing.

A great opportunity to discover the heritage and local history in an antique vehicle driven by a very friendly and cultured person. We had a great time. Besides, the sun was there. Thank you Bernard and good luck.

We spent a magnificent afternoon during this interesting ride in a decapoted Diane, with good weather. Our guide showed us a lot of interesting things that we would have missed without this outing. His very detailed explanations allowed us to better understand the ancient and recent history of the region. The friendly atmosphere and the excellent apple juice will remain in our memories. Recommended to all lovers of unusual experiences.

Having someone passionate who takes you for three hours on a visit rich in anecdotes and above all knowledge on the history of this region is very, very appreciated. Bernard captivated us throughout the journey. We recommend without any hesitation this visit which has the charm of vintage with the Diane decapitated if time permits.

Spent a very nice afternoon in Dyane. Bernard perfectly knows how to combine interesting events from the Second World War with architectural gems and a touch of history during the tour. In short, worth recommending

Superb walk with a guide passionate about the history of his region. I highly recommend this wonderful day adventure in the Diane. Very comfortable car. It brought back good memories for us. My 11 year old daughter loved it. Thank you Bernard

The visit was a surprise gift that we gave to our parents! We hit the nail on the head: they loved this return to the past, the exchanges with Bernard, and we had a blast too! We had planned the walk at the start of our stay in Ouistreham, it's a good idea, after all the advice/anecdotes received from Bernard we will continue our stay with "better insight" into the region! It's an original activity, which is worth doing. After a telephone conversation, Bernard was able to adapt the activity to our family of 5 people, we are all delighted by this experience. I 100% recommend this guided tour!

An amazing and very rewarding experience. Our guide Bernard knew how to prepare us a walk that goes off the beaten track, dotted with a host of details that make History on a human scale. Not to mention a few very nice surprises, around a park... A visit to make and redo, without hesitation.

Cette ballade avec Bernard a été une aventure insolite que je recommande à tous les passionnés d'histoire et de voitures anicennes, mêlant marche à pied et trajet en voiture. Je n'ai pas vu les 3h passer. Ses explications sont simples et se recoupent au fil de la ballade. Ne pas connaître les étapes m'a permis de me laisser porter. Je m'attarde désormais sur les villas anciennes et leur details qui permettaient de montrer la richesse de chacun. La coïncidence fait que nous avons habité le même département, anecdote qui s'est rappelé à nous en fin de balalde. J'ai enfin eu la chance de décapoter la Dyane avec lui. Merci pour ce moment hors du temps.

A beautiful experience that takes us back to our youth on board the Dyane! Between the drops we enjoyed riding in convertible. The ballad organized by Bernard is very rewarding. He is a very friendly guide. Do not hesitate, live the experience!

It is with pleasure that we discovered the region thanks to Bernard and his dyane. Listening and full of advice we had a great time

Superb historical walk, we had a great time. We discovered the hidden treasures of the coast.

Very nice ride in a car that has kept all its charm and with a guide (Bernard) who takes us for 3 hours to discover Ouistreham and its surroundings. The villas of the first sea baths in the more difficult hours of the D-Day and those who participated in it. After this walk, you will have only one idea: come back!

We spent with Bernard our excellent guide, a moment immersed in history, unexpected discoveries and beautiful walks in Dyane decapitated which made this afternoon unforgettable.... We have learned many things that can only be discovered by taking this guided walk and with a little cider to enhance this break.. Thank you Bernard for this beautiful story before wisely tidying up for the winter this unforgettable convertible with windy hair!!!
