liberation of Europe and the long march to Berlin. Commemorating the 70th anniversary of that fateful day in 2014, your memorable visit includes an introduction to the momentous events of D-Day by Tauck's local expert; a look at a private World War II memorabilia collection and a hands-on exhibit; and guided visits to Pointe du Hoc, the 100-ft. cliff taken by the 2nd Ranger Battalion on D-Day... the now-quiet Omaha

There are bound to be questions when travelling. Information on everything from weather to internet connections can be found below.
All other service gratuities, including those for local guides, hotel bellmen and restaurant staff, are included.
Checked Luggage – General
Due to space restrictions, we ask that you please limit your checked luggage to one suitcase per person weighing no more than 50 pounds (23 kg) and with overall dimensions (length + width + height) not exceeding 62 inches (158 cm).
Besides complying with the Tauck restriction noted above, you should also be sure to research and comply with all airline baggage restrictions relating to your flights to and from your Tauck journey. Airlines have become much more strict in enforcing size and weight limits in recent years, and luggage exceeding airline standards for size or weight may result in expensive overage fees or other consequences.
Airlines are free to revise luggage policies without notice, and certain airlines have different baggage allowances for different classes of service. Researching and complying with airline luggage restrictions is the responsibility of the guest, and Tauck cannot be held responsible for any costs or disruptions to travel caused by the failure to research and comply with airline policies.
Please be sure to attach your Tauck luggage tag to your suitcase before leaving home!
Carry-on Luggage - General
Although oversize bags and wheeled, carry-on luggage are popular for airline travel, they are often not convenient or appropriate for motor coach travel or for many on-tour flights. Most modern sightseeing motor coaches offer limited space for numerous or larger items. Space under seats or in the overhead rack is typically small, and designed to accommodate items like coats, hats, purses, and small camera bags, etc.
For your day-to-day travel while on tour, we recommend that you limit your hand luggage to a small, soft-sided carry-on piece, and that you bring only those items you need handy during the day such as make-up, medications, cameras, film, etc. Items too large to fit under the motor coach seat or on the overhead rack must be stored in the luggage bays beneath the motor coach, and may be inaccessible during daytime travel.
If you are a U.S. citizen traveling internationally, you will need a passport valid for six months beyond the completion of your Tauck journey for entry into France. You are not required to obtain a visa for the short duration of this tour.
If you are a citizen of another country traveling internationally, you should contact a French embassy or consulate to determine what travel documentation is required.
Please note that longer stays abroad for any purpose may require additional travel documentation.
We recommend that you make at least two photocopies of all the travel documents that you bring with you. Include copies of the photo page of your passport that contains the date of issuance, the date of expiration and your citizenship. Secure one set of copies in the safe in your room while traveling and leave one set behind with someone at home who will assist you in the event your documents are misplaced, lost or stolen.
Transportation to the tour departure point and from the tour ending point is not included.
We understand and appreciate the value of instant communication when we travel; it keeps us in touch with friends and family, and it's a reassurance in the event of an emergency. However, the use of cell phones can be disruptive to a tour and to other guests who are enjoying their vacation. As a courtesy to others, we ask that you refrain from using your cell phone while on the motor coach, during group functions, when sightseeing and when your Tauck Director is addressing the group as a whole. There will be many opportunities to make and receive calls at times when it does not affect others.
Please contact your cell phone carrier to determine whether your service extends to France.
To enjoy this tour, you should be in good health and able to walk reasonable distances, often over unpaved and uneven surfaces. Some of the most memorable sightseeing can only be accomplished on foot. The amount of walking you do, however, is at your discretion. Northwest France is home to innumerable historic buildings and sites, many dating from the Middle Ages. Therefore, roads, walkways and architecture may present difficulties for some guests with physical disabilities. The 'old towns' of Europe are often a maze of hills with narrow cobblestone streets and charming squares, and there will be a fair amount of walking up and down hills at Mont-Saint-Michel.
PLEASE NOTE: We regret that this Tauck itinerary cannot accommodate wheelchairs or motorized scooters. Likewise, we regret that we're unable to provide individual assistance to guests with walking difficulties or other personal needs. The responsibility of the Tauck Director who accompanies your trip is to ensure that the larger group enjoys a relaxing and informative journey, and he or she cannot be relied upon to provide ongoing individual assistance to any one guest. Guests requiring such individualized assistance must be accompanied by an able-bodied companion who can provide it.
While drinking water is generally safe at all our hotels, bottled water will be available wherever the local water is not fit to drink. We also provide bottled water on the motor coaches.
If you have a medical condition which might limit your participation in activities, please consult your physician for pre-departure health advice and notify us as soon as possible, if you have not already done so. We will advise your Tauck Director accordingly.
Please check with your health insurance provider to determine whether you are covered while traveling. If you will not be covered under your current policy, we strongly suggest that you arrange for adequate coverage while on tour.
If you are a resident of the U.S., no vaccinations are currently required for travel to France. For complete vaccination and inoculation information, please contact your physician, the public health service in your area, or the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to obtain information regarding vaccinations that may be required for your journey. The Travelers' Health Section of the CDC operates a 24-hour "Travelers' Health Hotline" at 800-232-4636 (toll-free in the U.S.). You may also log on to the CDC website by clicking here.
If you are a resident of another country, please contact a French embassy or consulate to determine what vaccination(s) may be required for your travel.

By traveling with us, you release Tauck, Inc. and our partners of all liability for any risks and/or injuries to the child with whom you are traveling.
Special Travel Documentation for Children
Authorization for Travel
If you travel into or out of the U.S. with children under the age of 18, you should be aware of the following: because of increasing incidents of child abductions in disputed custody cases and because children are at risk as possible victims of child pornography, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) strongly recommends that unless the child is accompanied by both parents, you should have a notarized note from the child's other parent (or, in the case of a child traveling with grandparents, uncles or aunts, sisters or brothers, or friends, a note signed by both parents) stating that the parent(s) not traveling acknowledge that the parent(s), family members, etc. who are traveling into or out of the U.S. with the child have permission to do so. While CBP may not ask to see this documentation, if they do ask, and you do not have it, you may be detained until the circumstances of the child traveling without both parents can be fully assessed.
If there is no second parent with legal claims to the child (parent deceased, sole custody, etc.), other relevant paperwork, such as a court decision, birth certificate naming only one parent, or a death certificate, will be useful.
Many other countries also share this concern for children who travel without both parents. To ensure smooth travel, we require you to comply with the travel regulations of each country visited. This information may be obtained from a country's consulate or embassy.
Authorization for Emergency Medical Treatment
In the unlikely event of a medical emergency, a medical facility will require permission from the child's parents to provide treatment. Therefore, we strongly suggest that you bring along a letter from both parents (including other pertinent documents as cited above) authorizing emergency medical treatment for their child.
Children who are U.S. citizens must have a passport valid for at least six months beyond the completion of the journey.
We are not responsible for the disruption of travel caused by the improper documentation of any guest, including children traveling without both parents. While there is no definitive format or standard, click here to view a sample letter for guardians or one parent traveling with a child.
If you are traveling from the U.S., the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires that your name, as it appears on your domestic or international airline ticket, must precisely match your name as it appears on the government-issued photo ID (i.e., passport or driver's license) that you present during security screening. The ID name must also match any additional airline data, such as frequent-flyer information. For example, if you present your driver's license to security and it says John T. Smith, your ticket must also say John T. Smith, not John Thomas Smith, Jack Smith, or any other variant. Your date-of-birth and gender information provided to the airline must also match your passport.
If you make your air travel arrangements through us, please ensure that the name you provide us precisely matches your name as shown on the identification you will use while traveling. If you make your own airline reservations, please ensure that the airline has the correct information.
For more information on the TSA's requirements, please visit their website by clicking here.
If you are traveling from an airport outside the jurisdiction of the U.S., you will need to determine what travel documentation and identification is required for that particular airport.
Due to heightened security regulations, certain items such as a metal nail file, pocketknife, cigarette lighter, or tweezers, and some liquid, gel, or aerosol items may not be permitted in your carry-on luggage. Please call your airline prior to departure to obtain current information on non-permissible carry-on items and recommended airport check-in times.
Bringing the right clothing for your trip is important – we've partnered with New Headings who provide an "easy-to-use, one-stop shop" for your Tauck travel needs, specifically selected for this trip. Click here to visit their site.
Your journey is designed with leisure in mind. Dress for comfort and convenience with a wardrobe that is adaptable and allows for layering. Generally, during the day, casual, comfortable, cotton clothing is recommended. Cool weather at higher elevations or at night will require warmer, layered clothing.
In Europe, especially in finer restaurants, it is generally customary to dress somewhat formally. Slacks or a dress for women and a jacket for men are acceptable dining attire, but a sport jacket is not required. It is advisable to avoid wearing jeans, sneakers or shorts for dinner. You may also wish to dress up a bit for the welcome reception and the farewell dinner, but by all means be comfortable.
You will find a hair dryer located in your hotel guest room. Irons and ironing boards are available upon request. Valet laundry and dry cleaning services are also available for a fee.
We recommend that you pack an adequate supply of your prescription medication in its original container to last through your entire journey, together with a copy of your doctor's prescription or a letter from your health-care provider on office stationery explaining that the medication has been prescribed for you, a list of the generic names of your medication, your travel documents and a change of clothing in your carry-on bag to avoid any inconvenience in the event that your flight or luggage is delayed.

Overall Rating:
Our guide, Katie, was terrific. The General who was responsible for our day in Normandy was amazing. The hotel in Paris was excellent. The individual guides for all but one of the tours was outstanding, and the one that wasn't outstanding was still good. A good pace for the trip.
The Day we visited WWII sites in Normandy was the highlight of the trip. Seeing the Bayeux Tapestry was also terrific. The Louvre was worth the four hours we spent there on our own. The River Cruise and Dinner on the Seine was a wonderful end to the trip.
Would you recommend Tauck to a friend?Definitely
great trip, some rain
great people on the trip
The trip was beautiful and so well presented. Our guide was
My only wish is that there had been more free time to explore
more on our own and shop as well. I think that some of
the guides at different places went into too much detail about
things we would never remember and I think that was the general
but, A+++
The Loire Valley was one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and the Normandy Beaches and their stories were unforgettable.
From start to finish the accommodations, culinary experiences, handouts & map, scenery & guided visits along the way have created memories and impressions of a lifetime for us. Our tour director was so informative, friendly, and professional handling all our daily needs. The smaller group & totally inclusive travel program was a dream trip!
Since this was our first time in France we found each destination a treat and engaging experience. We loved the countryside, Chateau visits, history, architecture highlights for sure, and small village visits. Loved St. Malo and Mont St. Michel. Paris was so exciting and we loved walking the city while experiencing the gardens, musses & more!
John Wickham
The trip was everything and more of what we expected. The tour director was very good. In addition to being very knowledgeable and accommodating, it seemed that she just became one of us, which was great.
The beaches of Normandy. The only rain we had on our tour came when we were visiting the American cemetery. The rain did not detract from the solemnity, only the amount of time we could pay our respects.
I'm just back from a my third Tauck trip and as been the norm for me it was a great one. What's stands out on this trip is the tour director, Jacquiline, it's a mark of a professional when they do their job so flawlessly you don't even notice their behind the scenes work. The weather helped out a bit too.
All of the tours of the DDay beaches and commentaries from the war historians.
To be honest, I only went on this trip because of my wife. I was in France in the middle 70's and experienced a lot of extremely rude people. NOT this trip. Everyone we met was more than helpful, kind and generous. The food was (again, as usual, with Tauck) fabulous. The sites visited more than memorable, with some very unique experiences.
I loved the WW II sites, cemetaries and museums very moving and emotional. My wfe loved Paris the best
Peter Blyth
This trip was motivated by the desire to visit the D-Day Beaches of Normandy and Tauck provided a perfect tour for that. In the lead up, the tour covers a varied itinerary with delightful adventures all along the way. Dinner with the [Employee Name] and his hunting hounds at Chat.de Champchevrier, the lunchtime boat cruise of the Golf de Morbian.
The selection of Hotels; the lovely Hotel Royal Barriere at Deauville, two nights in legendary splendor with a deluxe seafront room. We ordered a room-service dinner on the open night and enjoyed the vista and the relaxed comfort.
All hotel stays are two nights in duration and same-day laundry is available at Hotel Miramar, Port Crouesty.
A very enjoyable trip but think European. Hotel rooms are generally smaller and bathrooms especially tubs and showers are challenging by American standards.
There is a greater opportunity for casual dress clothing at dinners than the trip description may suggest. I regretted not bringing two sport coats.
Some Paris restaurants can disappoint.
The Seine river cruise is very enjoyable. A great photo opp.
music lover
The Paris-Loire-Brittany-Normandy tour was outstanding. We loved the itinerary, the special experiences that Tauck had planned, and the beautiful hotels. One thing that might have been helpful would have been to know the amount of physical activity involved, especially steps and climbs. Otherwise, it was excellent!
Seeing Chartres Cathedral for a second time. Incredible!
We decided to join the Tauck trip to France because our friends raved about your trips. It also had the destinations that we were interested in. We were so impressed with the service, attention, history and area detailed, we are looking to see what is next. Being on the bus was a delight, comfortable, no stress way to travel.
Our best part of the trip was Normandy and Omaha Beach. Nicole Kreignehofer was awesome & knowledgable and then to top it off Tauck brought in a Historian, Retired British General who was a wealth of information. Mont St Michel was also at the top of our list as a favorite. The town of Deauville was great to be on the coast and many things to do.
The trip was everything we expected and more. Dixie, our tour guide, was just fabulous. She was a wealth of knowledge and we learned so much for her. All of the other guides that joined us along the way, were wonderful too. The hotels were all first class and the food and wine more than met our expectations. Everyday was packed full.
Visit to Normandy. Also dinner on the riverboat in Paris.
For a first exposure to Tauck, we could not have asked for a better itinerary or tour director. Marianne took us into the beautiful French countryside to meet new treats and knowledge at almost every turn. We can't imagine this tour without her at the helm. The "Tauck touches" punctuated an experience we will never forget.
Lunch with a survivor of World War II and the liberation of France; Normandy-Omaha Beach - the American Cemetery; our farewell dinner cruise on the Seine.
Wonderful trip enjoyed all of it. Every thing was wonderful.
Fabulous weather, travel companions, sites selected, guide Katie McGurn, and driver Phillip. The fast paced tour packed in so many places that showed us the heart of the region and the soul of its people. Our Tauck and local guides were exceptional and made history come alive. Would have liked one day of R&R with no time constraints mid tour.
Omaha Beach and all the other D-Day sites. We were terribly saddened not to have been able to go to the cemetery in Normandy thanks to the government's desire to inflict the maximum pain on it citizens in the shutdown.
I was a looking for an educational experience to learn history and people. I found that to be true with some exceptions. We arrive in Versailles. There is no help in getting to the Chateau and no tour with a person. Why not? You provide tour guides in every church why not here and the Louvre. More guided tour of museums and less visits to churches
Normandy and museums that you provided a tour guide. I will explain further.
Would you recommend Tauck to a friend?Maybe
Thank you so much for your valuable feedback. We are very sorry some aspects of this trip fell below expectations. Rest assured, we will immediately look into your comments and will take any and all corrective actions where necessary. Again, we thank you for your patronage and do hpe that you will travel with us again.
-The Tauck Guest Relations Team
Overall the trip was over the top! Dixie was the best tour guide, not just on Tauck, that we have ever had. The ancillary guides were very professional. The only possible recommendation would be to allow for more personal time on future trips. The Paris section of the trip had adequate personal time slowed.
The American cemetery in Normandy was a religious experience.
Our tour guide was a vast wealth of knowledge.
Seeing a sight is one thing. Knowing how it fits into history is another.
St Michael's Mountain. Spectacular!
We felt that the trip was absolutely wonderful!
The picturesque countryside, the beautiful villages, the wonderful food and the knowledgeable tour guides made this trip special.
Lest we forget, the Tauck tour director and the driver couldn't have been better!
We are well traveled and have high expectations re: our travel...this exceeded them!
There were several but the most memorable was the American Cemetery in Normandy and walking Omaha Beach! What brave young men they were.
First visit to France. We loved variety of tours, churches, chateaus, museums,historical landmarks. Tour was very full each day, bus driver and tour
guide were exceptionally educated and professional. I favored the coastal small
towns and then the highlight, Paris. Menus became repetitious however. Hotels
were varied in style and lovely.shop?
Overlooking the Gardens of Villandry. Viewing the "Apocalypse Tapestry",
Dinner at private chateau, the cliffs of Omaha Beach, US cemetery, Eiffel tower, Lafayette store, the marina at Crouesty. Stainglass windows of Chartes cathedral.
Beautiful flowers everywhere.
This was our first trip with Tauck, and we were delighted! Our tour guide, Jacqueline, and bus driver, Phillippe, were extraordinary! Every aspect of the trip was perfection...the itinerary, the hotels, the local guides, the "bus rotation", the balance between "group time" and "individual time"...all well thought-out and extremely well executed.
Visiting the D-Day beaches with our local guide, British General (retired) Graham Holland. A truly meaningful and poignant day. Beautifully presented.
The places we visited were beautiful and so were the hotels, however the rooms were sometimes the worst ones facing the back or the interior patio.
I feel Tauck has lower their budget. Last year in our Tauck Switzerland trip we stayed in the best rooms of the best hotels in every place we visited. Don't expect that in this trip.
St Malo, Mount St Michel, the D day tour and of course Paris
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are sorry that some aspects of this journey fell below your expectations. One of our Guest Relations Specialists will contact you shortly to discuss this matter on more detail
Great trip! Lots of history ( and steps). Great Hotels and a tour director that what very knowledgeable, but perhaps even more important, lots of fun. The farewell dinner cruise on the Seine was excellent and seeing the Eiffel Tower lights at night was awesome.
Too many to mention. Maybe the General and the tour of the D-Day area, or the Givery Gardens, or the Eiffel Tower at night-- hard to say which was best.
We are delighted you enjoyed your journey and look forward to hosting you again in the near future.
This tour has been perfected! The tour director, Alexis Granelli, was professional, organized, and gracious. The Coach Captain/Driver, Aristide, not only kept an immaculate coach but was exceptionally competent driver making our way through tight passages and busy Paris traffic.
All itinerary selections were exactly what I wanted to see!
The day spent with retired Major General Graham Hollands on the Normandy beaches of D-Day 6 June 1944 and the visit to the beautiful American Military Cemetery. This alone would have been worth the trip to Normandy!
We are so pleased you enjoyed your journey and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
My first trip with Tauck! Loved being pampered for 12 days! Liked not having to worry about how to get from A to B each day!
Peace Museum in Caen; Normandy Beaches and American Cemetery. Local guide was excellent.
We are so pleased you enjoyed your first trip with us and we look forward to hosting you on many more!
Excellent tour of castles, cathedrals, D-Day beaches, and Paris. Tauck tour guide was excellent.
Seeing the D-Day beaches with an excellent guide.
We are very pleased you enjoyed your journey with us and look forward to hosting you in the near future.
INCREDIBLE........France was all we thought it would be. This tour featured a great itinerary, with quality time in the French countryside, along with memories from Paris. What is so awesome about Tauck is that they have outstanding tour directors who know give you the best attention, and best experience. Don't wait to book this one, it is GREAT!
Normandie was the most memorable, and most hallowed experience of our trip. To see and hear from a retired two star General, who is an expert on WWII, was quite moving. Omaha beach, and the American Cemetery are not to be missed.
We are very pleased to learn you enjoyed your journey with us and we thank you for taking the time to share your comments with us.
Firstly we were not expecting 40 people in our group. At times it was a bit too many. All the hotels were great except our Paris substitute. The Scribe was not up to your standards. Rooms very uncomfortable with only one uncomfortable chair!! Food was good though and location was fine. The tours were all good and very informative.
Normandy, Mount St. Michel & Monet's garden.
Dear Mr. Becker,
Thank you for your feedback. We am sorry some aspects of the trip fell below your expectations. We will be sure to share your comments with management.
Julia Ruddick
Some of the hotels were not up to Tauck's usual standards.
Too much time on motor coach, attempt to cover too many sights with not enough time spent at each. We felt rushed at almost every stop. One historic tapestry would be enough.
Guide and driver were very good. Guide sometimes "oversold" many of the sights thereby causing disappointment.
Mont St. Michel and dinner on riverboat on Seine.
Thanks for sharing your feedback. We're sorry you felt there was too much time on the coach and we'll definitely look into how we could make the time spent more optimal for all of our guests. Glad you enjoyed your trip overall however and we hope you'll travel with us again.
Frank Mo
We wanted to visit Omaha Beach, and got to see Loire Valley, Normandy, Brittany, and Paris also!!! Great hotels and food; excellent side trips. The historian who accompanied us for our "D-Day" events was an expert. We would recommend more time at certain sites and less time at others.
Visiting sites of WWII--esp. Omaha Beach. Excellent historian, Nick Kennedy.
2nd tour and was different than the first. Each activity/place was very interesting but no single WOW! place. I had been to Paris before though. This was nice, just a different experience. Our guide Marianne was upbeat and fun. Hotel locales in Versaille and Paris were great. Some others just ok. Normandy visit very moving.
As mentioned it was more an overall good experience rather than one or two wows for me. Loved the converted chateau we stayed in. Was glad to finally visit the Louvre and Rodin museums. The French sauces, pastries and wine are awesome. And portions seemed very balanced. Loved the lunch cruise on Morbihan Bay. Loved the farewell celebration!
Travelin' Mac
We stayed an extra day at the beginning in Versailles which was good for rest and ability to visit the Palace--most people missed that and regretted it, particularly if they stayed extra days at the end which tended to be much more expensive and busy with a great number of tourists. Overall, too much food too late at night--with no choice of times
Hardly enough space for a proper review!...Our most memorable moment was visiting the town of Rochefort en Terre but without enough time to spend shopping and relaxing--on to the next castle...Also interesting and fun was the Champ Chevrier "fox" hunt and tour of the Chateau with dinner and meeting the Baron's family.
Tauck's professionals provided us a comprehensive, thoughtful, and extremely comfortable vacation. Our guide, Jacqueline, was TOPS. She anticipated our questions and concerns, before we could ever voice them, which assured us that every detail had been covered by Tauck and by recommendations of previous guests. A jaw dropping great trip! Applause!
Our guide to the beaches was British Major General Holland. His full day of comprehensive lectures on D DAY were spellbounding. Joining him for our walk in the American Cemetary to honor our 9700+ fallen was poignant. As we solemnly got off the motorcoach, Jacqueline gave us a rose for us to place on the marker of a
soldier. Extraordinary!
The trip was very well done and very interesting. The final 3 days in Paris were not quite as exciting as the 10 days prior. The hotel in Paris was older and the rooms were small. More sight seeing excursions should have been planned for Paris.
Normandy was the highlight of the trip along with all of the World War II exhibits.
Carolyn Biller
The tour group was small, only 20 people. We liked that. Also, this was the best group of folks we have been with. It was very interesting to see all the historic sites. It made us want to study more of the history of the area and France in general.At first we were apprehensive about not knowing how to speak French, but, no problem.
It is hard to pick a "most" memorable moment; there were several.The palace and grounds of Versailles (unbeliveable extravagance, no wonder the Frence revolted).Mont St. Michael and the Normandy area.Paris and environs. Actually, the whole trip was memorable.
An excellent blend of country and city France, with both culture and history. Choice of lodging locations was very good, with 3 locations on or very near the ocean. For meals on our own, the tour director made excellent recommendations. The tour director and local guides were very good, with the guide at the Normandy D-Day sites exceptional.
Tough one! Either the walk to Mont St. Michel, the American Cemetery and D-Day beaches in Normandy, or walking the streets of Paris. Attending Mass at the Cathedral of Notre Dame was pretty special too.
This was a tremendous and memorable journey. The excursions were all well orchestrated and informational. Great accomodations along the way. Our tour director, Kit, was unsurpassed in his leadership and a real entertainer in his own right.
Probably floating down the Seine for the farewell cruise or the visit to the American cemetery in Normandy.
We had a truly great experience with this tour; our first with Tauck. The tour director, the rooms and the food and drink were all first rate.
The pace of the tour was well thought out and gave us enough time to see the important sights. We had time on our own at various times, and this was good.
Not sure whether my experience on the Normandy D-Day beaches, or the great time we had in Paris were the most memorable.
We opted for two extra days in Paris at the end, and it was a great way to end our tour.
Our 8th Tauck Tour, our first disapppointment. Has the change in management shifted the focus from excellent value to greater profit-making? 3-star rooms in 5-star hotels, mediocre meals (in France!), scheduling a visit to a site closed for a holiday.... Loved the French countryside, local guides were excellent, but we expected better from Tauck.
The guide for our visit to the Normandy beaches was outstanding. He explained with sensitivity what happened on D-Day, and made history come alive by educating us on little-known details. A highlight of the trip.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are sorry to learn that after 8 trips with us, your rooms and meals on this itinerary fell below the high expectation that Tauck has set for its guests. Providing guests with enriching itineraries to new world discoveries has been our passion for over 85 years. We are remiss that we may not have been able to do that on your recent journey. We care very much about your satisfaction and it saddens us to learn of your disappointment. We have asked a Guest Relations Specialist to personally reach out to you to discuss your feedback.

Maybe this is indicative of bus tours, but we spent much of the day on the bus, and sometimes only 90 minutes at a site, with the first 15 minutes taken up by a potty break before the group tour began. Many of these sites were seen only superficially, with the sole objective of saying we'd been there. Fabulous food, hotels, excellent local guides.
Mont-Saint Michel! Although equally memorable were the wonderful people I met on our tour, with whom I would love to travel again. If I go with Tauck again, I'll try a river cruise next time. Nevertheless, I saw a lot even if it was rushed, got lots of pictures, and I'm still raving about the food!
We definitely value your feedback regarding too much travel time. When creating our trips, we strive to balance enough structure, sightseeing, and free-time in our itineraries; However part of a great vacation is setting the right expectations regarding spent getting from place to place. We apologize this fell below your expectations and hope the memories of the fabulous food, local guides, and overall positive experience result in your traveling with us again.
As always, Tauck organized and delivered. There was so much more that we saw than we had anticipated. We chose the tour because we had always wanted to visit the D-Day beaches. That experience was moving beyond belief. But the other surprises - the lovely hotel near Langeais, the tapestry in Angers, the port in Crouesty, Josselin, St. Malo, Mont St Michel, Bayeux. Rouen, Giverney and Paris. There was comfort, great food and plenty to see.
How can one not be affected by the day in Normandy ending with the visit to the American cemetery?

New Editions: Explanations of Anger
"Why get upset over a new edition of a game? Your books don't disappear... You can still play the old one, what is the big deal?"
That's a great question, and as it is asked in the shadow of the 3rd Edition/4th Edition split of Dungeons & Dragons, I'll try to look at it in that context through my experiences.
Let me back up for a moment--there was a point during 3e D&D (likely The Book of 9 Swords, but possibly before) where I began to realize that a lot of the things 3e was doing--over-codification and formalization of character ability, for one, stylistic direction for another--really wasn't jiving with my idea of D&D. I enjoyed games that were kin to d20, but stripped out some of the bulk (Microlite 20, more recently Castles & Crusades).
Then came 4e, and that was even further away stylistically and system-wise from what I wanted.
And so you wake up one day and realize the game you've supported since your awkward adolescence is no longer for you. It isn't for your play style, or there are games that do it better. It still has that brand name that you were an adherent of, but you aren't the target audience. And for me, that stung. And I griped when each new 4e announcement came out--upset that they were going so far from what I wanted out of the game. When you're a part of something for so long, and then no longer feel like you're a part of it, one of the ways you react is to lash out.
But you know what? I eventually got over it. I think it's fantastic people are having fun with 4e. I love reading ChattyDM's recaps. I realized that while one company might control a certain name consisting of two consonants and an ampersand, the spirit of that was alive in countless other products. And the more time I spent griping meant the less time playing the stuff I liked. Which meant there was a staggering increase in the kobold populations of our campaign worlds during that time, inversely proportional to a shocking drop in Player Character mortality rates. Clearly, that couldn't stand.
There are people with other reasons for being upset with the new edition. Some of them having nothing to do directly with the game itself, but in wanting to support WotC, but not feeling they can, either because they aren't selling what they want, or because of their former ineptitude in Public Relations. And, of course, whatever the edition or game, you have the purists and the self-absorbed, stunned that anyone wouldn't care for their game, or having to validate their own preferences by denigrating those of others.
I'd like to say the last one isn't the most common online, but we all know it likely is. And if people want to stay upset, it isn't as if WotC isn't good for a PR flare-up every quarter or so. But, at least for some of us, I'd say some of the anger was in just part of learning to let go and take this new path. The Game didn't remain the same. But we just had to remember Our Game never left.

Very well said. :)
I'm increasingly feeling like setting sail from the land of "let's play D&D" and heading out into uncharted waters in search of some new Fantasy Adventure Game without all the baggage and edition wars that go with D&D.

Oftentimes, when people criticize a game, I think they do so without the caveat that "I don't like X, Y, and Z about a game" because it doesn't personally suit them.
Myself, I don't like Castles & Crusades, and could write an entire blog post about what I personally find wrong with the game. But that doesn't mean that it's not a good game. Its strengths and weaknesses don't lend themselves to my personal tastes, that's all.
I'm quite glad that there's a lot of people playing Castles & Crusades, and that they enjoy it a lot. Because that means there's a lot of happy people gaming, period. :)

@Mike: Well put. And as simple as that caveat is, it's the lack of it (or, just as often, the ignoring or disregard of it) that causes so many firestorms.

I think a major factor in people getting their knickers in a twist is that when you say "Let's play Monopoly!" everyone knows what game you're talking about... but when you say "Let's play D&D!" you could be talking about what can be played as completely different games. If you get a group of people together to play Monopoly nobody is going to think you're supposed to be playing Risk instead.
Original D&D without the use of minis, and a DM who emphasizes roleplaying and exploration is not the same game as 4th edition with a heavy emphasis on combat. The genre is the same - the gameplay is different. Even people who like the same edition (eg. AD&D) could be sitting down to play what are essentially different games using the same books.
Aside from being a trademark D&D basically means "Fantasy Tabletop RPG". I don't think it's really much more descriptive of what kind of game people might be playing than that.

@RG: I think of it as the Balkanization of D&D. :)

I think the answer is actually simpler than people think. It's human nature, really. It's change and most people don't like change. People will go out of their way to put down the "latest and greatest thing" without ever even seeing it because it's new and different.
I've been working in the training field for the last 15 years and I've seen many different pieces of software, different employees, and even different offices come and go and, every time something new was announced, you'd have a core group of people who would do nothing but gripe and complain because "this isn't how it used to be" i.e. "I don't like change because I'm being taken out of my comfort zone."
It's perfectly natural and it's very counter-productive to try and argue with people who feel this way. It does nothing but solidify, at least in their mind, that they're right. The best thing you can do is listen to what they have to say, tell them you disagree, and then move on.

Yes, but Monopoly with Free Parking funds? Auction Monopoly? Even as specific as the one with the Astronaut or not?

It is more than just a feeling of betrayal. It is that the game you know and love is no longer being supported by the publisher. While plenty of fan material continues to be generated, you know there will no longer be top quality, fully illustrated, well designed and playtested, hard cover books coming out for your favorite game anymore.
Also as much as I love Swords & Wizardry for example, there is no denying the power of the Dungeons & Dragons logo on a book. It's very similar to when you go to the store, you can buy generic cheaper, and it's probably just as good, but branding has a powerful appeal.

"Original D&D without the use of minis"...
That was a variant to me, and I started with original D&D. Never played it without minis. Never would.
So that didn't change. D&D never did have a 'proper and fixed' style of play, and EGG himself fought against that in order to expand the system/hobby (and AD&D was the result).
4E is just more of the same in the line.
That said, D&D is a somewhat extreme example producting extreme reactions. While CoC, HERO, GURPS and other games managed to get by with what was for the most part minor adjustments- D&D at times completely changed the balance and focus of the game.
So it's a rather special case, made worse by its market share.
Myself, I view this as a strong indication that D&D's market share was always about things other than the quality or style of rules.

@Tony Law: I don't think it's just about change. I like trying new games, but I like some of them more than others. :)
@Dave The Game: Those are all minor variations within the same game. Those things don't make it play like a totally different game. 4e with a focus on combat is a completely different game from 1e with minimal combat. If someone didn't tell you they were both called D&D you wouldn't even recognize them as the same thing.
@Gleichman: Exactly. Since some people played 1e with minis and lots of combat, 4e is very similar for them. This is where you get people debating whether 4e "feels" like D&D or not -- because there were so many different ways that people might have been playing earlier editions of D&D. This was something WotC recognized in the development of 3.0 and actively sought to standardize the gameplay. This trend was continued in 4e.

Great post Zach, I like how you made a personal statement about the whole thing and end up with a play and let play conclusion.
I decided to sit this last outburst of the Edition wars, I'm too busy judging One Page Dungeons and writing about D&D bloodbowl... :)
I'm pleasantly surprised that you find my 4e recap interesting. Thanks!

@Chatty: Oh, absolutely! You've had a lot of cool ideas and scenes that really seem to work well. I also like that you admit what didn't work well. You and Chgowiz go about it different ways, but both of you do session recaps I find interesting and useful for inspiration and ideas.
And yeah, hurry up on those 1-pagers! When are we going to find out the winners, anyhow? :)

My biggest gripe is that now I have no reason not to completely customize the rules, because what I come up with will be better than what I can buy --so I have a lot of trouble sharing my rules with other people.

Hmmmm, D&D has not been the love of my life. Maybe that's why the edition war and the old-school renaissance is no big deal to me. I dabbled with Rolemaster (MERP esp) early on and then abandoned it entirely during the 2ed splatbook'o'rama.
I came back to it after 3.5 due to being exposed to those rules in ToEE computer game (which rocks despite what people say). I expected splat books and power escalation. And all of it to be thrown out so there would be need to buy a whole new round of books.
This is how the industry works. Game publishers are in the business of taking your money and getting it into their pockets. Feeling "betrayed" by them is naivete.
I am more distraught by the change in play style and player expectations than rule differences.

As one of those who is known to still vent the occasional rant at 4e, let me chime in to explain why it's not just pure wickedness and hate behind why I and others don't just "shut up and go away."
I think what happened is clear to everyone who has analyzed the edition change to any degree. In short, a significant number of 3e and other legacy D&D players who enjoy simulationist play were mostly left out in 4e.
So, fair enough. D&D play styles have been diverse over time; certain editions have supported different styles better, there are other games out there, etc.
However, besides the nostalgic cachet to the D&D trademark, there's no denying that WotC is the 900 pound gorilla in the RPG market and D&D is the most played game. More support material is published for D&D than anything else.
Some people pick the game they prefer. Many, many others are led into a default play style by the game they pick up, the game that is on every bookstore shelf and the majority of people play - in this case, gamers are somewhat "molded" into the 4e style by playing it and by its market dominance. I think it's clear that not all that dominance is a clear case of "people have specifically chosen gamist tactical combat;" with any new edition most sales are driven by "this is the new version of that old thing." But then you begin, consciously and unconsiously, adhering to its metaphor (Norman Harman is referring to this same effect above, I think).
Furthermore, gaming is a social hobby, and it can be hard to find gaming groups and, on the publishing side, get sufficient critical mass to get "fringe" products produced.
As a result, there is significant incentive for me and others who prefer a different type of gaming to continue to advocate for D&D to (re-)adopt our mindset (in 5e, if nothing else). Because when your style of gaming is marginalized outside D&D, then your ability to find like minded gamers and get products that suit your needs is severely degraded. Thus, even if I don't play 4e, it affects me negatively. (Note that me house-ruling to accomplish simulation in 4e doesn't reduce any of these secondary effects, and is therefore not a useful solution).
It's traditional that the majority doesn't understand the concern of the marginalized - why be angry? Go with the flow! Nobody's telling you what to do! But in the end, it's not that simple (ask any minority group).
And that's why I personally plan to continue to agitate for changes to D&D to reintegrate the simulationist banner within the game. Doing so produces:
- the ability for me to play the best-supported and most-played RPG
- the network effect of other games and gamers who are fluent in simulation play
Make sense?

No, I totally get what you're saying. You're lobbying for change to get back "your" D&D. I can see that. I guess for me, that's not a fight I wanted to continue, not least of which because the game is with a company I do not hold in high esteem, and have no particular urge to support.
For me, the war is over. I have my games, and I'm just admitting that they aren't 4e (or, if the same posse is making the game) and likely not 5e, if the current direction remains.
