Tour Itinerary
This touching tour of Normandy is ideal for history buffs and World War II aficionados eager to personally explore the sacred sites of Operation Overlord, the codename for the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944. On this stirring tour, you’ll see where more than 150,000 mostly American, British, and Canadian troops stormed 50 miles of fiercely defended coastline, securing an Allied victory, and gaining a foothold in the fight against Nazi Germany. Your expert Tour Director will lead you to the many significant sites of that fateful day, including the cliffs scaled by troops at Pointe du Hoc as well as the assault shores of Utah, Juno, and Omaha Beach. You’ll have time to explore the moving memorials and museums of each site, including the emotive American Military Cemetery and Memorial. Start and end this incredible journey in magnificent Paris.

(B)205 mi / 330 kmTOUR HIGHLIGHT LEGENDARY LIVES When British troops landed on Gold Beach on the morning of June 6, 1944, the town of Arromanches-les-Bains was saved from destruction, thanks to the artificial Mulberry Port, constructed by the Allied Forces. Nearly 25,000 British troops from the 50th British Infantry Division landed on the area, successfully taken by Allied forces late afternoon on D-Day, June 6th. While the Allied forces did not actually land at Arromanches-les-Bains in June 1944, the beaches were a critical factor in the victory of the Battle of Normandy. Vestiges of the manmade Mulberry Port are fascinating to see, while learning about the historic day at the D-day Museum in Arromanches is inspiring indeed. ARROMANCHES-LES-BAINS.jpg

Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?
Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
This tour was exceptional. Our tour director and bus driver were great. I can't say enough about them. They were exceptional.
Needed more time at each stop. Another day added to the tour to make this possible would be helpful.
My quide Migaule(not sure how to spell his name) was great and the bus driver Rouale(spelling is not correct) was exceptional - he got us through some difficult situations with that big bus.

Caleb was great in setting this up, very patient about all the questions I had. Stephen, our guide in France, was great also. Ran a tight ship and was very organized and knowledgable. It was a great experience.
