• Musée du Débarquement Utah Beach - Join an expert guide in Paris aboard a comfortable, private coach. En route to Normandy, discover the details of the Allied preparations for D-Day, the largest amphibious assault in history. Your guide, fluent in English, will accompany you throughout the tour, sharing the story of the operation and answering questions from history enthusiasts and curious minds.

On Utah Beach, the first stop, the Allies swiftly overcame the German forces. Visit an extraordinary D-Day museum located in an old German bunker on the landing beach itself. The collection here highlights both the scale and personal sacrifice involved in the operation, featuring an original B-26 airplane and collections of soldiers’ letters home.

• Utah Beach - As the westernmost landing site on D-Day, Utah Beach played a crucial role in the success of the Allied invasion. Unlike Omaha Beach, the landings here faced lighter resistance, allowing troops to advance inland more quickly and secure vital strategic positions. Standing on Utah Beach today, with its vast stretch of sand and open coastline, provides a powerful sense of the operation’s scale and the courage of the soldiers who fought there. The site remains a deeply significant place to reflect on the challenges of D-Day and the determination that led to the liberation of Europe.
• L Estran - Pre-booking lunch on your day trip to Normandy is an excellent way to maximize your time. Small towns have limited dining options, and searching for a restaurant can detract from your experience. With lunch arranged in advance, enjoy a hassle-free meal in a charming port town, soaking in the coastal atmosphere while savoring local cuisine. This ensures a smooth and efficient day, allowing you to focus on the history and significance of the D-Day sites without worrying about where to eat.
• Pointe du Hoc - Pointe du Hoc stands as one of the most dramatic and awe-inspiring D-Day battle sites. Perched on steep cliffs overlooking the English Channel, it was a heavily fortified German stronghold that posed a major threat to the Allied landings. On June 6, 1944, U.S. Army Rangers heroically scaled the 100-foot cliffs under relentless enemy fire to seize the position. Today, the site remains largely untouched, with original German bunkers, bomb craters, and shattered fortifications serving as a powerful reminder of the battle’s intensity. Walking through this rugged terrain offers a deep appreciation for the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought to secure this pivotal stronghold.
• Omaha Beach - Visiting Omaha Beach is essential to fully understand the scale and impact of D-Day. This was where American forces faced the fiercest resistance, with heavy casualties in the fight to secure the beach. Walking along the shoreline allows reflection on the bravery and sacrifice of those who landed here. Seeing the vast expanse of sand and imagining the events of June 6, 1944, provides a powerful, personal connection to history that no museum or monument alone can offer.
• Cimetière Américain de Colleville-sur-Mer - The American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer is a deeply moving tribute to the nearly 10,000 U.S. soldiers who gave their lives during the Normandy landings. Overlooking Omaha Beach, its rows of white crosses and Stars of David stretch across a serene landscape, offering a place for reflection and remembrance. Walking through the cemetery allows a true appreciation of the scale of the sacrifice made for freedom. The memorial, reflecting pool, and chapel provide a solemn yet beautiful setting to honor these heroes and their enduring legacy.
