Discover the history of D-Day on this full-day guided tour through Normandy’s most important WWII sites. Departing from Bayeux, meet your expert English-speaking guide and travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned Mercedes minivan with onboard audio commentary.
Begin in Sainte-Mère-Église, one of the first towns liberated during the Normandy landings. Learn about the American paratroopers of the 82nd Airborne Division and see the famous church where a paratrooper became caught on the steeple during the night drop of June 6, 1944.
Continue to Utah Beach, where US troops carried out one of the most successful Allied landings of D-Day. Walk along the beach while your guide explains the strategy and events of Operation Overlord.
Next, visit Pointe du Hoc, the dramatic cliff assaulted by US Army Rangers who scaled the heights under heavy fire to destroy German artillery positions.
Please note: Due to road or construction works, access to Pointe du Hoc may occasionally be restricted in 2026-2027. If closed, the visit will be replaced by another significant D-Day location such as Sainte-Marie-du-Mont, Angoville, or Carentan.
Then head to Omaha Beach, the site of one of the most intense battles of D-Day, where American troops faced heavy resistance. Walk along the shoreline and hear the powerful stories of the soldiers who fought here.
The tour concludes at the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking Omaha Beach. This moving memorial honours more than 9,000 American soldiers who lost their lives during the Normandy campaign.
Throughout the day, your guide will share historical insights, personal stories, and suggestions for local lunch options.
